Hello Michael, in Nokia we have a wide variety of programs to take care of our employees and even their families. We have recurrent dialogs between managers and employees, that looks not only to discuss goals and professional objectives, but that actually start by asking the people how they feel overall. Personally, I can tell you that I have used different resources when things go wrong or when I needed extra support (from a personal perspective), and I feel grateful because the company has been there all the time. I hope this answers your question. Thanks for passing by.

Thank you Catalina. This is good for me to know if I consider a partnership with a responsible employer. A good safety culture is just that, responsive and responsible.
Best regards,,, Mike

This is an excellent question. Employee safety is of paramount importance and is non-negotiable in the eyes of our leadership. We have clearly identified teams and structures to ensure employee safety and good health globally as well as at Nokia locations. Our CEO also regularly promotes psychological safety too, meaning mental and physical well-being. We have various programs, initiatives, and sessions to convey and address any potential risks/threats. There are multiple initiatives as a part of Nokia People Strategy too, to ensure a 100% employee-friendly approach. In my 20+ years at Nokia, I have always felt very secure and have been taken good care of by my company.

Hi Michael,
I feel we are in safe hands in Nokia. Safety in here means both psychological and physical safety, and they both are recognized by the leadership. The first one covers, for example, freedom to speak openly, supporting diversity and preventing harassment and discrimination.
Physical safety means that our workplace and conditions meets all requirements. For example, sufficient ventilation, cleaning of the premises, lighting, desks, ergonomics, building safety, etc. In addition, there are also detailed occupational safety instructions for those employees who do physical work.
Also, at least in Finland we have a Work Safety Delegate which is selected amongst employees.
