Unemployment. Yle’s salary machine. Ski school. Weather.

Unemployment

The first topic is unemployment.

The number of unemployed people has increased.

In January, there were over 30,000 more unemployed than a year ago.

There are also more laid off people. Those who have been furloughed still have a job, but they are on compulsory leave without pay.

So the number of unemployed people has increased.

However, Elina Pylkkänen from the Ministry of Labor and Economic Affairs sees signs that the situation is starting to improve. For example, the number of open jobs has started to increase.

The number of unemployed people decreases when the economic situation improves. There has already been good news about the economy, for example the rise in prices has slowed down and some loan interest rates have turned down.

For example, a car salesman can earn more than a master’s degree with a university education.

This is what Yle’s salary machine tells you, with which you can compare salaries in different fields. The payroll machine can be found atyle.fi.

Ski schools are popular.

The schools in Southern Finland have a week of ski holidays, and many children are now in ski school.

Ski schools are popular.

One of the reasons for that is that the winters have been snowy in recent years.
