INACCURATE INFORMATION IN MEDIA ON FINNAIR'S COST CUTTING

There has been inaccurate information in media regarding Finnair's cost cutting
measures. Finnair has not made any decisions on redundancies of 1 200
employees. As guided in the latest interim report, Finnair seeks to find
additional savings in all business areas to safeguard profitability. Additional
means of savings are sought in negotiations with labor unions. These talks are
not negotiations under the Act on Co-Determination within Undertakings (YT
negotiations).
