Finland has a long history of regulating the recording of working time. The current law is, for the most part, relatively well aligned with Working Time Directive 2003/88/EC, as the primary obligation for employers to maintain a �working time register� is objectively unambiguous and well established in jurisprudence. Recent changes in the law, however, have seen the introduction of highly flexible working time arrangements that are not necessarily in compliance with the minimum requirements of the Directive. These requirements were clarified by the Court of Justice of the European Union in case C-55/18, which has not been widely discussed or assessed in relation to the current legislation in Finland. This paper aims to provide insights as to why the judgment has attracted so little scrutiny in Finland to date and answer the question of whether it still could, or should, lead to changes in the national legislation.
