Job advertisement in English online

Agreeing the terms and conditions of employment
Foreign workers are subject to the same working conditions as Finnish workers. The terms and conditions of employment are agreed before the application for a work-based residence permit is submitted, and the employer states the terms and conditions in the permit application. The employment contract can be concluded before or after arrival in Finland.
