Long-term prospects
A municipality was justified in dismissing an employee due to the long-term prospects of her returning to work after sickness absence.
Did the employer show care or inaction?
A security company had not forfeited the right to summarily dismiss an employee, even though the company did not summarily dismiss the employee until more than 3 weeks after the company became aware that the employee had set up and operated a competing business.
Reference register – no objections
According to the assessment of the Data Protection Agency, there were no grounds for the Agency to initiate a case against a municipality based on the establishment of a reference register.

An employer could not obtain an injunction against a former employee performing consultancy work for a competitor. The district court found that the employer had forfeited the opportunity to enforce the non-competition clause, and the high court dismissed the appeal because the restricted period had expired.
Employment or favour for a friend? Judgment by the Supreme Court

Reason for dismissal was off the mark
An employer’s wish to help a dismissed employee by giving an incorrect dismissal reason in the termination letter could not lead to the principle of equal treatment not being breached.
Registration of working hours – changes to the Executive Order on Rest Periods etc. submitted for consultation
Draft amendments to the Executive Order on Rest Periods and the Executive Order on Systematic Working Environment Work have been submitted for consultation. Among other things, it is proposed to align the exemption for the so-called self-organisers.
