When is an announcement about end of employment of an employee from outside the EU/EEA area not required?

• You have hired the employee for a fixed-term employment relationship and stated the duration of the employment relationship in the residence permit application. The employee was granted a residence permit for an employed person for the duration of the employment relationship. The work ends on the day that you have stated in the terms of employment. At the same time, the employee’s residence permit expires.
  • You do not need to submit an announcement about end of employment, as the employment relationship has ended in accordance with the residence permit issued on the basis of work.
• The employee has a permanent residence permit.
• The employee has a certificate for seasonal work or a visa for seasonal work.
• The employee has a residence permit for a startup entrepreneur.
• The employee has a residence permit for studies, a residence permit on the basis of temporary protection or a residence permit on the basis of family ties.
  • You have, for example, hired an employee who is not an EU/EEA citizen but who is already in Finland and holds a residence permit on the basis of studies to work for you in a fixed-term employment relationship for the summer and the employee resigns mid-contract. You do not need to submit an announcement about end of employment because the employee’s residence permit is not a work-based residence permit.
• The employee is a posted worker, that is, a worker of a foreign company who is temporarily working in Finland.
  • However, an announcement about end of employment must be submitted if the employee has come to Finland from a company located outside the EU with a residence permit based on intra-corporate transfer and the posting ends.
• The additional work done by the employee ends, but the actual employment relationship on which his or her residence permit is based continues.
• The employee is laid off.
