lomanmääräytymiskuukaudelta

Lomanmääräytym, a Finnish term, translates to "leave entitlement" or "vacation entitlement" in English. It refers to the legal rights and regulations governing the amount of paid vacation an employee is entitled to in Finland. The primary legislation defining these rights is the Finnish Annual Holidays Act (Lomakausi).

Under the Annual Holidays Act, employees accrue vacation days based on their employment relationship. Typically, an employee working at least 14 days or 100 hours in a month earns 2.5 days of paid vacation per full month of employment. For employees whose employment relationship lasts less than three months, or for those working part-time, the accrual rate may be different, often 2 days per month.

The vacation year runs from April 1st to March 31st. The vacation entitlement accrued during this period must generally be taken during the following vacation season, which runs from May 1st to September 30th. However, a portion of the vacation, usually 12 days, can be taken outside of this main season with mutual agreement.

During paid vacation, employees receive their regular salary or an average of their earnings, ensuring financial stability while they are away from work. There are also provisions for how vacation days can be compensated if employment ends before the vacation is taken. The specific details of lomanmääräytym are crucial for both employers and employees to understand to ensure compliance with Finnish labor law and fair treatment of workers.
