“I wouldn’t have made it without help from the Legal Assistance” – Court orders compensation for wrongful termination

Perttu Vaittinen was unexpectedly dismissed as a result of restructuring negotiations while he was on partial parental leave. Fortunately, Perttu had joined YTK Worklife in time and was able to get help from the Legal Assitance. The case eventually went to district court, where the employer was ordered to pay compensation. According to Perttu, Legal Assistance was crucial throughout the entire process.

Summertime is great for networking

Networking isn’t just about reaching out to new people or giving sales pitches. Networks form naturally at work, through hobbies, and in everyday encounters. The more relaxed pace of summer offers great opportunities to meet new people, attend events, or get active on LinkedIn. These can open doors to hidden job opportunities and career advancement.

A summer job at YTK offers respon­sibility, learning oppor­tunities, and a supportive work community

“It’s been surprising to see the variety of situations I’ve encountered while processing daily allowance applications and how many different factors can affect eligibility for the earnings-related daily allowance. The variety of cases and the level of responsibility involved make the work truly interesting and rewarding.”

So says Siiri Vaahersalo, who recently started a summer job with us at YTK. We want to offer young people the opportunity to gain experience in responsible expert roles while they’re still in school.
