  • Local Government Employment Pilots – Uusimaa TE Office Questions and Answers
    Local government employment pilots – Uusimaa TE office Questions and answers 1. What is the local government employment pilot? The local government employment pilots are a project lasting more than two years in which some of the legally mandated employment services of TE offices are to be arranged by municipalities. Taking part in the project are 125 municipalities and 26 pilot areas formed by them. Participants in the Uusimaa region are Helsinki, Espoo, Vantaa, Kerava, Porvoo, Raasepori and Hanko. The regional pilots begin on 1 March 2021 and they end on 30 June 2023. 2. Why are the local government pilots being launched? In accordance with the Government programme, the role of municipalities in organising employment services is being strengthened. The purpose of the pilots is to improve access to the labour market, especially for those who have been unemployed for longer and those who are in a weaker position on the labour market. In addition, services are to be developed in the pilot that support the employment of a jobseeker, and service models in which the customer's situation and need for service are evaluated at the individual level. 3. What does this mean in practice? After the launch of a local government pilot some of the jobseeker customers will become customers of the municipalities, and some will remain with the TE office. When a customer is transferred to the local government pilot, his or her services will be primarily provided by his or her municipality of residence. The TE office will retain some tasks involving the customers that move to the local government pilots, such as statements on unemployment security and interviews and selections for vocational labour market training.

Publikation nr 93 ÅRSBERÄTTELSE 2017 SLC Nyland 2 DET NITTIOTREDJE VERKSAMHETSÅRET Förbundets medlemmar Antalet lokalavdelningar som var anslutna till förbundet minskade vid ingången av året från 19 till 17, då Karis och Snappertuna lokalavdelningar samt Pojo landsbygdsförening gick samman till en lokalavdelning, SLC Raseborg. Det betydde samtidigt att antalet medlemsföreningar i form av landsbygdsföreningar minskade från tre till två. Lokalavdelningarna hade vid slutet av år 2017 sammanlagt 1.383 lantbruks- och trädgårdslägenheter som medlemmar (aktiva). Dessa minskade med 1,1 procent från föregående år. Förbundet hade 316 stödande medlemmar (+ 0,3 %). Personmedlemmarnas antal uppgick till 3.149 (- 2,1 %). Medlemsgårdarnas sammanlagda areal utgjorde 59.045 ha åker (- 2,5 %) och 74.488 ha skog (- 0,4 %). Medlemsgårdarnas medelareal uppgick till 42,7 ha åker (+ 0,4 ha jmf. med 2016) och 53,9 ha skog (+ 0,5 ha). 307 lägenheter hade enbart skog. Om man beaktar endast aktiva gårdar som hade åkermark i besittning blir åkerns medelareal ca 12,2 hektar större, d.v.s. 54,9 ha. Det här motsvarar rätt väl medelarealen för lantbruken i Nyland.
