Töölähedases

Töölähedases is a Finnish term that translates to "work-related" or "connected to work." It is commonly used to describe situations, illnesses, accidents, or expenses that arise as a direct consequence of one's employment. The term encompasses a broad range of circumstances, emphasizing the causal link between the activity or condition and the individual's professional duties.

For instance, a "töölähedases haigus" would refer to an occupational illness, a health condition that develops due to exposure to hazards or stress encountered in the workplace. Similarly, a "töölähedases õnnetus" signifies an accident that occurs while performing work tasks or on work premises. This distinction is important in legal and insurance contexts, as it determines eligibility for compensation and benefits. Expenses incurred specifically for work, such as business travel costs or necessary equipment purchases, can also be categorized as töölähedases. The precise definition and implications of töölähedases can vary depending on specific legislation and employment agreements within Finland.
