The principles for concluding fixed-term contracts have changed – are you up to date?

Amendments to the Employment Contracts Act entered into force on June 1, 2026, expanding the employer’s ability to conclude fixed-term employment contracts. The aim of the Finnish Government’s labour law reforms is to make companies’ hiring possibilities more flexible. However, the reforms also have significant implications for employees’ position in the labour market. Join our webinar to learn what the changes mean in practice. We will go through the updated legislation in a clear and practical way.

The training will cover, for example, the following topics:

• when a fixed-term employment contract can be concluded
• what impact the changes have on the chaining of fixed-term contracts
• what obligations an employer has to offer work when a fixed-term contract ends

The training is suitable for anyone interested in the topic.
