Erityisvaativia

Erityisvaativia is a Finnish adjective form used to describe tasks, requirements, or situations that are particularly demanding or require special qualifications, expertise, resources, or accommodations. The prefix erityis- signals that something involves special or exceptional degree, and the base vaativa means demanding. The plural form erityisvaativia is normally used with plural nouns in contexts such as erityisvaativia tehtäviä or erityisvaativia vaatimuksia.

In typical usage, erityisvaativia describes the level of demand in many fields. In employment descriptions, it can refer to tasks that require a high level of project management, specialized technical skills, or significant responsibility. In public procurement and contract work, it is used to denote requirements that are more complex or riskier than standard ones, sometimes affecting evaluation methods or bidding criteria. In education and social services, erityisvaativia tasks or needs indicate that recipients require tailored approaches, more intensive support, or specific equipment.

The term is inherently relative; whether a task is characterized as erityisvaativia depends on the comparison baseline, the context, and available resources. It is not a clinical or legal term by itself, but it appears in policy, management, and administrative discourse to flag elevated demands and the need for appropriate planning and resources.
