Työpaikkakortti

Työpaikkakortti, often translated as a workplace card or employment card, is a document used in some employment contexts, particularly in Finland, to provide essential information about an employee and their employment relationship. It serves as a summary of key details relevant to both the employer and the employee.

The typical information found on a työpaikkakortti includes the employee's name, personal identification number, and contact details. It also details the employer's name, business identification code, and contact information. Crucially, it outlines the terms of employment, such as the job title, the start date of employment, and the nature of the contract (e.g., permanent, fixed-term). Salary information might also be included, though this can vary.

The purpose of the työpaikkakortti is to ensure clarity and transparency in the employment relationship. It can be used for various administrative purposes, such as providing a quick reference for payroll, managing employee benefits, or for verification by authorities if needed. For employees, it serves as a tangible record of their employment conditions. In some cases, it may also contain information about working hours, occupational health care arrangements, or specific workplace rules. The specific format and content of a työpaikkakortti can differ depending on the employer and the industry.
