kokouspöytäkirjan

Kokouspöytäkirja is a Finnish term that translates to "meeting minutes" in English. It is a formal record of a meeting's proceedings. The primary purpose of a kokouspöytäkirja is to document decisions made, actions to be taken, and the participants of the meeting. It serves as an official account of what transpired and provides a reference point for future discussions and actions.

The content of a kokouspöytäkirja typically includes the date and time of the meeting, the location, the names of attendees and absentees, and the agenda items discussed. For each agenda item, the minutes will summarize the discussion, any proposals made, and the decisions reached, including voting outcomes if applicable. Any action items assigned will specify who is responsible for carrying them out and by when.

In Finland, kokouspöytäkirjat are crucial for many organizations, including companies, associations, and public bodies. They are often legally required for certain types of meetings, especially those of governing bodies like boards of directors or shareholder meetings. The accuracy and completeness of the minutes are important to ensure transparency and accountability. The minutes are usually approved at the subsequent meeting, making them an official record of the organization's activities and decisions.
