Personnel Service Silkkitie Oy
We are an international recruitment company that has been operating in Finland for 10 years.
We mainly recruit for the social and healthcare sectors on a “turnkey” basis. We are responsible for recruiting employees, language training in the countries of origin, as well as social orientation and familiarization with Finnish working life, the residence permit process and the integration of international employees in Finland.
We meet employees at the airport, help them find an apartment and introduce them to their new workplace. Employees who have arrived in Finland also receive support in non-work-related matters 24/7 through us. This way we ensure the best possible start to their working and other life in Finland.
Approximately 1,700 employees will arrive in Finland through us in 2023.
Values and responsibility
The most important thing for us is the satisfaction of our employees and customers who come to Finland through us.
Based on the feedback, we have succeeded excellently: a very large proportion of the employees we have trained are still working for the client, our customer satisfaction is very high and the employees have integrated excellently.
We also follow international ethical recruitment guidelines. We have ongoing discussions with our partners in the countries of origin about the principles of responsibility and ensure that the treatment of employees is in accordance with the responsibility recommendations of the WHO and the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health at all stages of recruitment.

Our service combines a genuine customer-oriented service culture and strong expertise in social and health recruitment.
