The well-being of our employees is important and also fundamental to the Nokia Way. We as an employer recognize the importance of the balance between work content and personal interests and needs, as well as the impact of that balance on employee well-being.

Nokia is offering services, programs and guidelines to support employees´ possibilities to maintain work-life balance according to their changing needs and life situations. These work-life balance solutions may alter by country according to local needs, legislation, employment market situation and common practices. Typically they include e.g. teleworking, mobile working, flexible working hours, sabbaticals, study leaves, health care services as well as recreational activities and other activity clubs.

Flexible Working

Mobile Working and Teleworking:
We recognize the diverse needs of the individuals in the different phases of their lives. We can provide our employees with innovative solutions aiming at having positive effects on the overall quality of life, job satisfaction and job performance. Depending on the situation and needs, flexible working solutions can provide alternative modes of working such as teleworking at home or at other locations (e.g. working at remote sites).

Flexi Time:
Depending on the local market conditions, employees may take advantage of flexi time including flexible working hours and part-time working.

Time Off:
Nokia´s flexible working solutions can include unpaid time off and sabbaticals. These solutions support Nokia´s philosophy of Employee Personal Growth and Self-management and enable employees to take extented leave from work.

Health-care Services

Nokia aims to maintain and improve the working environment and well-being of its employees. In order to ensure the physical well-being of employees Nokia offers amongst others medical check-ups, counseling and insurance programs to the employees.

Volunteering

Volunteering is yet another way to help create a balance between personal convictions and professional lives.

Nokia employees can use 1-2 working days per year for Nokia Helping Hands volunteering.
