The Finnish Ministry of Employment and the Economy (TEM) has recently launched a new website, https://tem.fi, in a bid to improve its communication with citizens. The government’s initiative aims to provide easy access to relevant information, news, and services related to employment and economic development.
The new website has a user-friendly interface, making it convenient for citizens to find the information they need. It offers comprehensive resources on topics such as labor market policies, job opportunities, and training programs. Additionally, users can explore information about entrepreneurship, innovation, and sustainable development in Finland. The website also incorporates an interactive feature that enables users to provide feedback and suggestions.
Commenting on the launch, Minister of Employment and the Economy, Tuula Haatainen, said, “The new website is an important step in our efforts to make information about employment and economic development more accessible and understandable to all citizens. We believe that transparent and easy-to-access information strengthens the trust between the government and the people.”
While the initiative by the Finnish Ministry of Employment and the Economy is commendable, it faces competition from other platforms providing similar services. One of its notable competitors is the website of the Finnish Social Insurance Institution (Kela), which primarily focuses on social security services and benefits. Kela’s website offers comprehensive information on social welfare, healthcare, and pensions.
Another competitor in this space is InfoFinland. This website, operated by the Association of Finnish Municipalities, provides information and services primarily for immigrants and expatriates. It offers practical guidance on various living aspects in Finland, including healthcare, education, and employment opportunities.
As the competition intensifies, the Finnish Ministry of Employment and the Economy understands the importance of continuous improvement. The officials are already planning to add new features to the website and collaborate with relevant stakeholders to ensure it remains a valuable resource for citizens looking for employment and economic development-related information.
