Employer’s Statutory Plans

Employer’s Statutory Plans

The statutory plans and other documentation required of all employers are the cornerstones of every employer’s operations. We help employers in drafting and implementing the plans. We also provide down-to-earth advice on best practices.

The plans will ensure that your company is aware of and meets its statutory obligations. They create transparency both in the work community and in authority inspections, corporate transactions or recruiting.

We tailor our advice by taking into account the number of employees of the company as well as the company’s field of operation and other needs. The advice can cover, for example, the following matters:

  • Statutory obligations, such as working hour and annual holiday accounting, permits for foreign workers, obligations relating to posted workers and obligations relating to personnel under the Contractor’s Liability Act
  • Assessment of potentially applicable collective bargaining agreements
  • Drafting and updating of statutory plans, such as equality plans including pay charts, as well as personnel and training plan
  • Preparing for authority inspections
  • Privacy policy related to the processing and storage of employees’ and job applicants’ personal data

We advised Valio Oy in its acquisition of Raisio Oyj’s plant protein business, related fixed assets and the Härkis® and Beanit® fava bean brands. The fixed assets include, among other things, the production equipment of the factory that makes plant protein products in Kauhava. The transaction supports Valio’s strategy to grow from a dairy company to a food company. This business acquisition will make us an even more significant developer and producer of plant-based protein products. The demand for these products will grow in the long term, and a great deal of growth potential still remains. In 2022, we acquired the Gold&Green® business and, since then, we have been carrying out strong product development and renewed the brand. Following successful product launches, sales in the last quarter of 2024 increased by about 50% from the previous quarter. With this acquisition, we are building our own production capacity.
