Labour market roadmap project examines labour bottlenecks and proposes solutions
- News
The labour market roadmap project provides important information about the problems related to the availability of labour. During the project, employers and employees met in sectoral groups to consider proposals for improving the situation. According to them, the transfer of labour from surplus occupations to shortage occupations and from one region to another should be speedier and the services for people moving to work in Finland could be improved.

Background of the Labour Market Roadmap project
The Labour Market Roadmap project sought to identify measures to improve the match between open vacancies and workers. These measures are important in order to raise the employment rate, improve growth opportunities of businesses and strengthen the funding base of the welfare state.
Poor availability of labour is one of the most significant obstacles to business growth, and even to business operations as a whole. For this reason, Minister of Employment Tuula Haatainen launched a labour market roadmap project in November 2021 with the aim of improving the availability of labour in all sectors throughout Finland.
