Values guide everyday work


New shared values guide all of the Lemminkäinen’s activities. Lemminkäinen’s core values of respect and trust create a solid foundation for constructive collaboration and thus sustainable growth and development. Keeping these values firmly in focus in personnel work will make them genuinely a part of everyday work and the way we do business.

Lemminkäinen's values

By the end of the strategy period Lemminkäinen aims to be the construction sector’s best employer with the best-trained personnel and the best managers. Achieving that goal will require investment in personnel development and training as well as motivational management work.

In 2009 Lemminkäinen established an HR management group consisting of representatives from the business sectors and Group-level HR co-ordinators. The group prepares important matters concerning personnel work for consideration and decision by the Group’s Executive Board.

A draft version of Lemminkäinen’s personnel strategy was completed in spring 2009. The final version of the personnel strategy will be completed in spring 2010. A number of large development projects were initiated in 2009, some of which will continue in 2010.

With a labour shortage expected in the construction sector after the recession is over, Lemminkäinen is developing its management personnel work as part of a wider effort to ensure that it remains an attractive employer in the future.  

Uniform personnel practices

The aim is that the personnel administration practices and employee benefits of one united Lemminkäinen should be uniform throughout the Group. The operating models used by personnel administration in the Group’s different companies, e.g. the remuneration system and occupational healthcare, recruitment practices and training opportunities, are being harmonised. Uniform practices in personnel administration support the achievement of business goals; they create a pleasant working atmosphere; and they support employee motivation and development even-handedly. They also support management work that is consistent with Lemminkäinen’s values and improve the Company’s image as an employer.
