Työttävää

Työttävää is a Finnish word that translates to "unemployment" or "being unemployed." It refers to the state of being without a job when one is willing and able to work and is actively seeking employment. In Finland, like many other countries, unemployment is a significant socio-economic issue tracked by official statistics and addressed by government policies.

The Finnish government and various organizations provide services and support for those who are unemployed. These services can include job search assistance, vocational training, counseling, and financial benefits such as unemployment security. The unemployment rate is a key indicator of the health of the Finnish economy and influences policy decisions. Factors contributing to unemployment can include economic downturns, structural changes in industries, and individual circumstances. Understanding työttävää involves looking at both the individual experience of joblessness and its broader societal and economic implications.
