Residence permit and unemployment

First, the topic of residence permit.

A foreigner may soon lose his residence permit quickly due to unemployment. Minister of Labor Arto Satonen told about it yesterday.

The government’s plan is that a foreign worker has 3 months to look for a new job if he becomes unemployed. If he can’t find a new job, he has to leave Finland.

A foreigner can quickly lose his residence permit due to unemployment.

If an unemployed foreigner is in an expert position, he has 6 months to find a new job.

That too is too little, says this unemployed Indian robotics engineer. Even job interviews take a long time, he says.

People with dementia

Then the topic is people with memory problems.

People with dementia are often excluded from social life. This is what a new study says.

Scientists talk about social death. It means people don’t talk to someone with dementia. They think that the amnesiac doesn’t understand anything anymore.

In a nursing home, loved ones can even be asked not to visit the amnesiac too often.

People with dementia are often excluded from social life.

Researcher Jari Pirhonen says that the social death of people with dementia can be prevented.

For example, loved ones with dementia can participate in the life of a nursing home. The most important thing is that a person is good until the end of life.

New play

Then news from the theater.

Helsinki City Theater has a new play.

It’s called Brother Leijonamieli. The story of the play is from the book by the Swedish Astrid Lindgren.

The story tells about a sick little boy Korpus and Korpus’ brother Joonatan. The theme is death.

The story has sadness and light at the same time. That’s why the story feels real, says actor Alexander Wendelin. He is Korppu in the play.

Saturday’s weather

Another weather forecast.

Tomorrow the sun will shine in the south.

It’s cloudy and foggy in the north and it can also rain a little in places.

The temperature is 10-15 degrees in the southern and central part of the country, 5-10 degrees in the north.
