Summer job opportunities have been declining for years – TEK appeals to employers: “Let’s work together and make next summer better than the last”
The number of students in the field of technology who were left without a summer job last year was twice that of the summer of 2023. TEK is urging employers in the technology industry to have the courage to employ young people. TEK also offers them an opportunity to advertise their summer jobs in the TEKrekry LinkedIn group, which is moderated by TEK, free of charge. “Let’s work together and make next summer better than the last,” encourages TEK’s Labour Market Director Teemu Hankamäki.

Akava and TEK do not accept the proposed changes to dismissal on personal grounds
Akava (Confederation of Unions for Professional and Managerial Staff in Finland) and TEK as its member union do not approve of the Government's proposed legislative amendments concerning the dismissal of employees on personal grounds. According to the proposal, a valid reason would suffice for terminating an employment contract in the future. Akava and TEK emphasise that current legislation and established case law provide a basis for employee job security.

Mind the gender gap – and why leap over it
Why do I want to see more women in the field of technology, a field that researchers like me have found to favour men? It's not because misery loves company but because in tech the positives far outweigh the negatives.

Budget talks bring hope for the unemployed, but retreat on RDI funding is a disappointment
Easing the ability to study while receiving unemployment benefits is an excellent decision from the government’s budget negotiations. However, curbing the growth of RDI (Research, Development, and Innovation) funding unnecessarily hampers growth and productivity.
