Flexibility and competitiveness: Labour market flexibility, innovation and organisational performance. Finnish national report

Arbeitspapier

This overview report on flexibility and competitiveness for Finland starts with an outline of the performance and consequent restructuring of the Finnish economy over the past two decades. It then continues with a presentation and discussion of Finnish technology policy and the ICT miracle of the 1990s, which are key supporting factors behind the Finnish success story. The focus then shifts to an outline of the main features of labour market legislation and organisations, including the collective bargaining system implemented in Finnish working life, and the main modes of labour market flexibility. The report concludes with a summary of the main outcomes from interviews with representatives of the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Labour, the National Technology Agency (Tekes), the Confederation of Finnish Industry and Employers (TT) and the Central Organisation of Finnish Trade Unions (SAK). – Finland ; labour market flexibility ; labour market institutions ; technology policy
