Tehtävässäsi

Tehtävässäsi is a Finnish expression formed from tehtävä (task, duty) with the inessive case suffix -ssä and the second-person possessive suffix -si, meaning “in your task/position/role.” The phrase refers to the duties or responsibilities that belong to the listener in a given role. It is commonly used in formal or administrative contexts to anchor statements to a specific position or set of duties.

Usage of tehtävässäsi is typical in job descriptions, training materials, guidelines, and performance discussions. It signals that the following instruction, requirement, or expectation applies to the listener in their current role. The tone is functional and directive, but can also be descriptive, outlining the scope of responsibilities rather than making a personal judgment.

Examples illustrate its practical use. Tehtävässäsi olet vastuussa projektin koordinoinnista. In your role, you are responsible for coordinating the project. Tehtävässäsi sinun tulee laatia raportti joka viikko. In your role you must prepare a report every week. Tehtävässäsi on huomioitava tiimityö. In your role, teamwork must be taken into account.

Grammatical note: tehtävässäsi combines tehtävä, the inessive case -ssä, and possessive -si to denote “in your [role/position/task].” It typically accompanies a main clause that specifies duties, expectations, or conditions tied to a particular task or position, and is used across formal Finnish to clarify the scope of responsibility.
