tööandjalt

Tööandjalt is the elative singular form of the Estonian word tööandja, meaning “from the employer.” It marks the source or origin of information, documents, or actions. In formal and administrative language, tööandjalt is used to attribute something to the employer, such as rules, notices, or data provided by the employer.

Usage and function: Tööandjalt is commonly found in employment and HR contexts. It is used to indicate that a piece of information or a document originates with the employer. Phrases such as tööandjalt pärinev teave (information originating from the employer) or tööandjalt saadud dokumendid (documents received from the employer) illustrate its typical usage. The form helps distinguish the source of material from other possible sources, such as colleagues or external bodies. It can be employed in sentences describing obligations, rights, or communications tied to the employer.

Grammatical notes: -lt is the elative case in Estonian, which expresses origin or source. Tööandjalt is used when the speaker wants to specify that something comes from the employer.
