Training services for companies
If your staff needs to enhance their skills or you want to train new employees to meet your company’s needs, labour market training offers a solution. Labour market training is vocational adult education tailored to the company, with costs shared between the company and the employment authority. The training is delivered by an external training organization.
For training matters, please contact our specialists.
Transition security for the employer
Our Transition security experts assist employers in change negotiations related to workforce reductions.
As an employer, you have obligations related to change security. The employer must notify the employment authority of employee layoffs if at least ten employees are being laid off for production-related or economic reasons.
We explain, among other things, how the process proceeds and what statutory obligations the employer has in layoff and furlough negotiations. At the employer’s request, we organize information sessions for laid-off or furloughed individuals regarding the services offered by the employment authority.
Our goal is to speed up and facilitate the transition of laid-off employees to new jobs or training. Cooperation between the employer, the staff, and the employment agency creates the best conditions for the reemployment of laid-off employees.
