Välimiehille

Välimiehille is a Finnish term that translates to "for the interim" or "for the meantime." It is used to describe a situation or arrangement that is temporary or provisional, intended to serve a purpose until a more permanent solution can be established. This concept can be applied in various contexts, including legal matters, administrative processes, and personal arrangements.

In legal contexts, a välimies is an arbitrator or mediator who resolves disputes outside of traditional court proceedings. The term "välimiehille" in this sense might refer to the fees or costs associated with such arbitration services, or the period during which the arbitration is ongoing before a final decision is reached. It signifies a temporary resolution mechanism.

Administratively, "välimiehille" can refer to temporary appointments or interim measures put in place to ensure continuity while a permanent selection or decision-making process is underway. For example, an acting manager might be appointed "välimiehille" until a new permanent manager is hired.

In everyday life, the phrase can describe any temporary solution or arrangement. If a person is staying in a temporary accommodation while looking for a permanent home, they are living there "välimiehille." Similarly, a temporary contract or agreement falls under this description. The core idea is that the situation is not intended to be permanent and is a placeholder for something more settled in the future.
