This toolkit organises the obligations of Vuosilomalaki into seven working files of open questions, with the statutory text carried beside each duty.

Vuosilomalaki (Säädöskokoelma 162/2005, Finlex) governs annual holidays and holiday pay in employment relationships. It reaches employers of every size, from single-person firms to large companies, and the employees whose holidays they arrange. The seven working files walk through the employer's duties in phases, each phase a set of open questions the business answers from its own records.

The files cover the employer's duty to grant annual holiday and the rules on when it is taken, the negotiation duty between employer and employee, and the duty to pay holiday pay. They also cover the compatibility of the law with the directive it implements, the formal requirements for holiday records and notices, and the duty to hear the employee before certain decisions.

Sections are served through a connector inside Claude, so the business works through the questions in its own setting. The documents that come back are dated compliance reports the business keeps in its own file. The toolkit never gives advice and never presents a perspective; it carries what the authority wrote, organised.
