- If the employee is an unemployed immigrant with inadequate Finnish language skills.
Apart from the recruitment support, companies can also apply for a one-time payment of 1800 euros as a recruitment bonus, provided that the employment relationship in the company continues for at least a year and covers at least 85 per cent of the regular working time. The duration of the employment relationship can be calculated from the date when the recruitment supplement was first paid.
