Providing employment as a household

A household may commission, for example, construction, renovation, child care, and cleaning work and hire an employee for this purpose. In these cases, as a rule, you have the same employer’s obligations as other employers.

On the Job Market Finland, a household registered as an employer can post a job advertisement and receive assistance with recruitment by submitting a contact request to the employment authority.

How to Register

  1. You can register your household as an employer through the "My Job Path" section.

  2. Provide the requested information during the registration process.

  3. After registering, you’ll be directed to a page where you can change your role within the Job Market Finland.

  4. Select the role of “household employer” to access the Household Employer services, where you can post a job advertisement.
