Statement: Securing the future of vocational adult training

The Education Committee of the Finnish Commerce Federation and the Service Union United PAM are concerned about the impact of the cuts in vocational adult training and apprenticeships on the availability of skilled labour. Businesses and unions emphasise that our vocational training cannot withstand further cuts. Vocational degrees are essential for businesses and employees in the commerce sector from the point of view of the development of work tasks and competence.
