Frequently asked questions
Yes. We manage the TyEL earnings-related pension contribution (roughly 17% of salary, split between employer and employee), along with unemployment and health insurance contributions and progressive income tax withholding. Finland has no statutory minimum wage; pay is largely set by sector collective bargaining agreements, and we apply the relevant agreement where the employer is bound by one.
Lunch vouchers or a subsidized workplace canteen, supplementary occupational health coverage (which in Finland often goes beyond the legally required occupational health service), and additional paid leave beyond the statutory minimum, which itself already scales generously with tenure, are common differentiators. Flexible working hours and remote work options are also weighted heavily by Finnish candidates.
Statutory notice periods range from 14 days for under a year of service to six months for over 12 years, and generally scale symmetrically whether the employer or employee is giving notice. Termination requires proper grounds under the Employment Contracts Act, and collective bargaining agreements may set additional procedural requirements, so checking the applicable sector agreement is a necessary step before any dismissal.
An EOR can typically onboard within one to two weeks for pension and tax registration, compared with the several weeks needed to incorporate a Finnish entity (such as an Oy) and register with the Finnish Tax Administration and pension provider.
Finland’s sector-based collective bargaining agreements and TyEL pension administration require ongoing local knowledge that’s easy to underestimate. An EOR manages that compliance and carries the liability, letting you access Finland’s strong engineering and gaming industry talent without incorporation costs.
