Solutions for creating healthy workplaces – from individuals to the organizational level
Anticipation through the most important
Our working life solutions tackle the factors that burden your work community, from individuals to the organizational level, where it has the most impact.
Services for mental well-being
The challenges of our time can be seen as growing mental health symptoms. Acute care is the most important thing for those who need it, and the easier help is available, the earlier problems can be tackled and work ability supported without even the first sick leave.
Physical work ability
According to the Finnish Centre of Pensions, musculoskeletal disorders are the most common reason for being on a disability pension. Maintaining physical ability to work as the working-age population ages requires a planned and proactive approach.
Management and work community development
Mental health challenges are a growing risk of work ability, but when the acute situation is under control, it is necessary to look at the bigger picture, from the reformulation of work to the management of the work ability, humanity and culture of the organization, which achieve the most far-reaching and preventive solutions.

Low-threshold mental health services for better work ability
Mental health absenteeism among staff in the ELY Centres, TE Offices and KEHA Centre had increased and there was a need to address this risk quickly.

Low-threshold wellbeing services are now well established, easy to find and with positive user experiences. In addition, there was a significant reduction in psychological symptoms among participants in brief psychotherapy and a corresponding increase in perceived psychological well-being.
