työntekijäille

Työntekijöille is Finnish for “to/for the employees.” It is the allative case form of the plural noun työntekijä (employee). In Finnish, the allative -lle signals direction toward or benefit for an addressee, and is commonly used to indicate recipients of actions, beneficiaries of arrangements, or targets of services.

The form appears after a noun or noun phrase to mark the recipient or beneficiary in a sentence. It can express acts done for or directed at employees, such as distributing something to employees, providing services for employees, or addressing information to employees. Because it marks a plural group, työntekijöille is used when the subject is the group of employees rather than a single employee.

Examples illustrate its use in context. Tarjoamme koulutusta työntekijöille. (We offer training for the employees.) Palkkio jaettiin työntekijöille. (The reward was distributed to the employees.) Tuki on suunnattu työntekijöille. (The support is aimed at the employees.) In each case, työntekijöille denotes the recipients or beneficiaries of the action or arrangement.

Notes on usage: -lle forms are common with verbs of giving, enabling, guiding, or targeting. The singular form would be työntekijälle (to the employee/for the employee). Understanding the allative helps in interpreting who benefits from or receives something in Finnish sentences.
