Helsingin Sanomat follows up on a story about the Immigration Service Migri's mishandling of a Mongolian nurse's residence permit application.
HS now reports that Finland will pay damages amounting to 5,300 euros to Anudari Boldbaatar, whom the paper says nearly suffered a miscarriage of justice.
Migri had rejected her residence permit application on incorrect grounds, and ruled that she should be deported.
This month the State Treasury handed down a decision that severely criticised Migri's handling of the case.
It noted that ambiguities regarding Boldbaatar's bank statement entries — that led Migri to suspect forgery — could have been cleared up simply by discussing the matter with Boldbaatar, the State Treasury said.
In its decision, the State Treasury moreover emphasised the importance of public authorities acting impeccably when it comes to the rights of people impacted by their actions.
Unmotivated Finns
Finns are some of the least motivated workers in western Europe, reports Kauppalehti, citing a poll by HR firm SD Worx.
The survey found that 59.1 percent of Finns feel motivated in their jobs. This is lower than the European average of 65.2 percent.
Work motivation was the lowest in Serbia. On the other hand, the most motivated employees are in the Netherlands, Romania and Austria.
The 18-country survey polled more than 18,000 employees.
20cm snow, then 20C
Many parts of Finland woke to a snowy surprise on Tuesday morning, and the return of the white stuff caused slippery roads in most of the country and transport disruption in the bigger cities.
Iltalehti, however, runs two very different weather stories. One of its articles explains how Tuesday's flurries will dump 5-15 centimetres of snow in southern and southwestern parts of the country. Meanwhile, the area stretching from southern Ostrobothnia to central areas could be blanketed in up to 20 centimeters of fluff.
At the same time, the paper reports that European mid-range forecasts indicate a total weather turnaround with temperatures reaching up to 20 degrees Celsius early next week. This would be just in time for May Day celebrations, when Finland marks the traditional start of the sunnier season.
