Employment and business services

The aim of employment and business services is to support, promote and develop the operating conditions of companies in such a way that current companies remain viable and the municipality receives new companies, residents and a skilled workforce. Vitality services consist of business, tourism and employment services. Rural services and development of villages are also part of the vitality services. In addition, the employees of tourism services are responsible for the reservations and arrangements of the remote workspace of the municipality. In addition to the permanent staff, numerous summer employees work in tourism services every year, and employees are needed all year round in the employment service center Miilu. Various projects also employ a varying number of employees in vitality services every year.
