Työssäolohistoria

Työssäolohistoria, often translated as work history or employment history, refers to a record of an individual's past jobs and the duration of their employment in each. This information is typically compiled by an individual for purposes such as job applications, loan applications, or background checks. It serves as a chronological overview of an individual's professional life.

Key components of a työssäolohistoria usually include the names of employers, job titles held, dates of employment (start and end dates), and sometimes a brief description of responsibilities or duties performed. The level of detail can vary depending on the purpose for which the history is being presented. For job applications, it is often a crucial section of a resume or curriculum vitae (CV), providing potential employers with insight into a candidate's experience, stability, and career progression.

In Finland, the term is frequently encountered in the context of official documentation and employment procedures. Employers may request it to verify a candidate's qualifications and work experience, and it can also be used by social security institutions for various benefit calculations or assessments. The työssäolohistoria helps to establish a clear and verifiable timeline of an individual's working life, contributing to transparency in employment and related administrative processes.
