työkohdissa

Työkohdissa refers to a specific type of employment arrangement in Finland, where an individual works for a company but is not considered an employee. Instead, the worker is classified as a self-employed individual, often referred to as a "työkohdissa" or "työkohdissa-työntekijä." This arrangement is governed by the Finnish Tax Administration and is designed to provide flexibility for both the employer and the worker.

In a työkohdissa arrangement, the worker is responsible for their own taxes and social security contributions, similar to a self-employed individual. However, the employer provides the worker with a workplace and may offer benefits such as health insurance and pension contributions. The worker is also entitled to certain employee rights, such as protection against unfair dismissal and the right to collective bargaining.

Työkohdissa arrangements are often used for temporary or project-based work, as well as for positions that require specialized skills or expertise. The arrangement can be beneficial for both the employer and the worker, as it allows for greater flexibility and can help to reduce costs for the employer. However, it is important for both parties to understand the legal and financial implications of this arrangement before entering into a työkohdissa contract.
