Health Care Services Collective Agreement TPTES

The TPTES agreement is adhered to for example, in private hospitals, private medical and health stations, laboratories, rehabilitation facilities and health spas, as well as in the Blood Service. The collective agreement is negotiated between Sote ry (SuPer, Tehy and Erto) and the Finnish Association of Private Care Providers.

A collective agreement in the field of health services is generally binding, which means that even an employer that is not a member of an employers’ association must comply with it. The agreement covers approximately 25,000 employees.
