Labour Court dismissed union's appeal against employer's decision to terminate employee for gross misconduct.

The Labour Court rejected the Finnish Trade Union Pro's appeal against Metsäteollisuus ry's decision to terminate UPM-Kymmene Oyj's employee. The union argued the dismissal violated the employer's internal rules and lacked sufficient procedural safeguards, while the employer contended the employee committed gross misconduct warranting immediate termination. The court upheld the dismissal, ruling that the employer's actions were justified under the relevant labour law provisions and internal regulations.
