Asking about working time in the context of a strike is a subtle semantics.

Employees at a Lidl store in Lahti have been asked whether they will be available on strike days. According to Yle, the store manager had gone around with a list and casually asked who was available.

According to the employee interviewed by Yle, the employer had also said that the absence on strike days should be reported according to the normal absence policy.

Lahti Energia made a profit of almost 20 million – three million in dividends to the owner

The electric boiler in Kymijärvi proved to be an excellent investment. This year, the company also invested in an electric boiler at Teivaanmäki.

Lahti Energia improved its results last year. The result for the Lahti Energia Group as a whole rose to EUR 19.9 million. This is almost seven million euros more than in the previous year.

Last year, the company did not need to take out any additional loans. There are some EUR 347 million of old loans outstanding.

Lahti Energia’s good result is partly due to the fact that the electricity exchange price was high in the first half of last year and electricity consumption was high due to the cold weather.

Demand for electricity is expected to continue to grow, which can be bad news for the consumer.
