The Salary Level for a Student in Finland

Post by sakurasanta86 » Tue Apr 24, 2018 5:30 am

Hi everyone
We are a danish startup that a consider moving our business to Finland (Helsinki) too. However that would require that we hired some students to help us out. Before we do so we need to find out which salary level they would be on. Here in Denmark they are paid the same as people in the supermarket or behind the counter in the local coffeehouse. It would be hourly based, but the total amount would be around 10 hours a week. How much would a person mentioned above be paid? Anyone knows or any place I could find the answer, I have tried Google however really different answers are coming up.

Depends on the sector you'll be. If IT, then check the collective agreement at tietoala.fi/tes/

While it is ok to pay below the recommendation, paying below collective agreement will result a court case.

If I were the op, I'd contact oma.yrityssuomi.fi and get information from professionals.
