A report discusses how the growth in Finnish employment during the 2020s has predominantly depended on foreign workers, highlighting the challenges faced by Finnish employees.
This article from Yle Uutiset explores the reliance of Finland's employment growth on foreign workers throughout the 2020s, presenting the personal experience of Katarina Bobotova, a Slovak hotel manager who found her way to Finland by chance. Having worked at prestigious hotels and cruise lines before, Bobotova's journey took her to Lapland, where she navigated through tough interviews and tests to secure her position at the Arctic TreeHouse hotel in Rovaniemi. Her story exemplifies the trend where foreign talents fill gaps in the Finnish labor market, especially in regions like Lapland that are not only picturesque but also demanding in terms of service standards.
