A Case Study of Yara Suomi Oy, Siilinjärvi Site SOCIAL LICENSE TO OPERATE REINFORCING CONTINUITY OF BUSINESS: WILL STONES TURN INTO BREAD FOR YEARS TO COME? – A CASE STUDY OF YARA SUOMI OY, SIILINJÄRVI SITE Jyväskylä University School of Business and Economics Master’s thesis 2019 Author: Fenia Niemitz Corporate Environmental Management Supervisor: Tiina Onkila, Senior Researcher ABSTRACT Author Fenia Niemitz Title Social license to operate reinforcing continuity of business: Will stones turn into bread for years to come? – A case study of Yara Suomi Oy, Siilinjärvi site Subject Type of work Corporate Environmental Management Master’s Thesis Date Number of pages 31.5.2019 83 pp + appendices 19 pp Abstract Obtaining and maintaining a social license to operate (SLO) has become essential for re- source-extractive industries as key stakeholders are increasingly expecting the industry to contribute positively to the surrounding society and environment, communicate openly and engage the local communities in their decision-making (Moffat & Zhang, 2014). Not obtaining acceptance from relevant stakeholders is related with financial (Franks et al., 2014) and reputational backlashes (Prno & Slocombe, 2014) setting the company under unnecessary risks. This quantitative case study is the first attempt to comprehensively portray Yara’s image as perceived by the residents of Siilinjärvi, where the site of Yara Suomi Oy produces fertilizers for agriculture, feed and forest industry and soil improvements. Operating in the immediate vicinity of the municipality of Siilinjärvi, maintaining acceptance of local community is essential while exploring the prospects for future. Hence, this research aims to evaluate the level of the current SLO and examine the potential differentiation in attitudes between socio-demographic factors along with the residents’ relation to Yara. To address these tasks, the perceptions of 146 members of the local community were empirically examined. A simple random sampling was applied to generate a sample with respect to the socio-demographic structure of the municipality. The results indicate that Yara is broadly accepted by the local community. Furthermore the data suggest that socio-demographic attributes and the current relationship with Yara poorly predict the attitudes towards Yara Siilinjärvi. The outcomes of the study clearly demonstrate the development areas to be tackled while striving to build a trust- worthy connection with the local community to further explore the mutual path towards a sustainable future. This research then also calls for a follow-up study to explore the evolution of the site's SLO.

Hyväksynnän puuttuminen on yhteydessä taloudellisiin (Franks et al., 2014) ja imagollisiin (Prno & Slocombe, 2014) haasteisiin asettaen yritykselle tarpeettomia riske- jä. Tämä kvantitatiivinen tapaustutkimus on ensimmäinen yritys kuvata kokonaisvaltaises- ti Yaran imagoa Siilinjärven asukkaiden näkökulmasta. Yara Suomi Oy:n tuotantolaitos tuottaa lannoitteita maataloudelle, rehu- ja metsäteollisuudelle sekä maaperän paranta- miseen. Siilinjärven kunnan välittömässä läheisyydessä toimivalle toimipaikalle paikal- lisyhteisön hyväksyntä on tärkeää samalla kun tarkastellaan toiminnan tulevaisuuden- näkymiä. Näin ollen tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena on arvioida nykyisen sosiaalisen toimiluvan tasoa sekä tutkia sosio-demografisten tekijöiden sekä asukkaiden ja Yaran suhteiden mahdollista vaikutusta asenteisiin. Tutkimuksessa tarkasteltiin yhteensä 146 paikallisyhteisön jäsenen käsitystä Yarasta. Otos muodostettiin yksinkertaisella satun- naisotannalla huomioiden kunnan sosio-demografinen rakenne. Tulokset osoittavat, että paikallinen yhteisö on laajalti hyväksynyt Yaran. Lisäksi tulok- set viittaavat siihen, että sosio-demografiset ominaisuudet ja asukkaiden suhde Yaraan ennustavat huonosti paikallisyhteisön asenteita. Tutkimus osoittaa myös selvästi kehi- tysalueet, joihin on puututtava, samalla kun pyritään rakentamaan luotettava yhteys paikalliseen yhteisöön ja pyritään edelleen löytämään yhteinen polku kohti kestävää tu- levaisuutta. Mahdollinen jatkotutkimus tukisi toimipaikan sosiaalisen toimiluvan kehit- tymisen seuraamista.

Peat production in summer 2010 was in line with the long term average, but adequate har- vesting areas will be required in coming years to rebuild inventory levels. Vapo strengthened its wood energy business. Pellet overproduction continued on the European market, which led to restrictions on produc- tion. The energy tax reform will improve the competitive position for pellets in coming years.

  • Verbien Pikapuhemuotojen Morfosyntaksia
    AILA MIELIKÄINEN VERBIEN PIKAPUHEMUOTOJEN MORFOSYNTAKSIA ielihistoriallisessa tutkimuksessa määriteltyjen äänteenmuutosten ulkopuolelle jää joukko epäsäännöllisiä muutoksia, jotka eivät toteudu systemaattisesti sa- moissa asemissa samoin ehdoin. Näihin kuuluvat analogian ohella erilaiset ly- hentymä- tai kulumamuodot, joiden taustalla on pyrkimys artikulaatioenergian säästöön. Altteimpia tällaisille kulumille ovat lausepainottomassa asemassa, nopeatempoisessa puheessa esiintyvät suurtaajuiset pronominit, lukusanat ja partikkelit. (Esim. Erkki Itko- nen 1966: 205–207; Ravila 1975: 44.) Varsinkin adverbeista ja konjunktioista on pika- puheisuuden vuoksi syntynyt monia poikkeuksellisia, irrallisiksi jääviä äänneasuja, joita ei voi sijoittaa varsinaisten äänteenmuutosten yhteyteen, esimerkiksi siä < siellä, sit < sitten, kans ~ kaa < kanssa, ni < niin, et < että. Sanansisäisten nasaalien ja likvidojen kadosta voi silti hahmottaa säännöllisempiäkin järjestelmiä: n on kadonnut laajalti suomen murteissa persoonapronomineista minä, sinä (mä ~ mää : mu-, mie ~ miä : miu-) ja m demonstratiivipronomineista tämä, nämä (tää, nää). Samaan yhteyteen kuuluu myös l:n ja n:n kato eräiden suurtaajuisten verbien taivutusmuodoista: en oo, tuut, meette, paap pois. Koska nasaalit ja l ovat muissa samanrakenteisissa sanoissa säilyneet (kana, sama, kylä), kato ei ole odotuksenmukainen äänteenmuutos. Pronominien ja verbien kuluma- muodot on kuitenkin käsitelty kaikissa murteiden äännehistoriallisissa tutkimuksissa sanansisäisten yksinäiskonsonanttien yhteydessä.

  • A Typological Perspective on Negation in Finnish Dialects
    Nor Jnl Ling 34.2, 83–104 C Nordic Association of Linguists 2011 doi:10.1017/S0332586511000126 Miestamo, Matti. 2011. A typological perspective on negation in Finnish dialects. Nordic Journal of Linguistics 34(2), 83–104. A typological perspective on negation in Finnish dialects Matti Miestamo This paper looks at negation in Finnish dialects from a typological perspective. The focus is on standard negation, i.e. the negation of declarative verbal main clauses. The dialectal variation that Finnish shows in its negative construction is examined in the light of current typological knowledge of the expression of negation. Developmental trends connected to the micro-typological variation are also discussed, Finnish dialects are compared with related and neighbouring languages, and relevant theoretical and methodological issues relating to the meeting point of typology and dialectology are addressed. Keywords dialectology, Finnish, negation, typology Matti Miestamo, Institutionen for¨ lingvistik, Stockholms universitet, SE-106 91 Stockholm, Sweden. [email protected] 1. INTRODUCTION This paper will look at negation in Finnish dialects from a typological perspective. Focus will be on standard negation, i.e. the negation of declarative main clauses with a verbal predicate. The data will be mainly drawn from Savijarvi’s¨ (1977a) work on the dialectal variation Finnish shows in its negative construction. In recent years, the relationship between typology and dialectology, two mutually independent subdisciplines of linguistics, has received a fair amount of attention. The contributions in Kortmann (2004) and also some authors in Nevalainen, Klemola & Laitinen (2006) address the points of contact between these disciplines and how bringing them closer together could benefit each of them.

It feels as if countries are closer to each other and that makes for instance travelling easier. Student exchanges have also become more common. Going to study abroad is a good way to learn about new cultures, meet new people and expand one's own way of thinking and acting. There is snow In Finland in the winter time, as well as Northern lights, reindeer, salmiakki, sauna and of course the Santa Cla- us. For many people Finland must be quite an exotic country. Exchange students often consider Finns to be shy and silent people, but once you get to know them they become more open and communicative.
