yleisohjeissa

Yleisohjeissa is the inessive plural form of the Finnish noun yleisohje, meaning “in the general instructions” or “in the general guidelines.” The base yleisohje combines yleinen (general) and ohje (instruction or guideline). The suffix -issa marks the inessive case, indicating location inside the general instructions. The plural form signals a set or collection of guidelines rather than a single instruction.

In usage, yleisohjeissa appears in Finnish procedural, technical, and administrative texts to refer to statements, rules, or recommendations that apply across multiple situations or processes. It helps distinguish general directions from those tailored to a specific case and is common where official procedures, safety rules, or standard operating instructions are presented.

Grammatical notes: yleisohjeissa is a compound noun form built from yleisohje plus the inessive plural ending. Like other inessive forms, it answers questions such as “where?” in a text, namely “in the general instructions.”

Examples: Yleisohjeissa todetaan, että tuotannon tilat on pidettävä siisteinä ja hätäuloskäyntejä ei saa estää. Yleisohjeissa annetaan yleiset edellytykset ja menettelytavat, joita noudatetaan kaikissa tapauksissa.
