responsibility

There would be no Kaukokiito without Kaukokiito employees who enjoy their work. That is why we are committed to doing a good job – something that everyone who works for us can be proud of.

We want to do a good job. To build and support a diverse and equal Kaukokiito culture in which our employees feel good and acknowledge the value of their work. We believe that this will be achieved through the long-term development of occupational well-being and safety and by investing in the training of Kaukokiito employees and supervisory work.

Kaukokiito is a significant Finnish employer. We have approximately 2,000 employees of our own and thousands indirectly through subcontractors and partners. We monitor the implementation and development of well-being at work with an annual well-being at work survey and pulse surveys.

We offer training opportunities for Kaukokiito employees in our own Kaukokiito Academy, which is our personnel’s own forum for competence development and networking. Through it, Kaukokiito employees can complete a degree alongside their own work and supplement their professional competence.

We organise safety and well-being days at our terminals so that Kaukokiito employees can take a break around their personal well-being and offer new ideas to support it. We also support occupational safety work with chain-level campaigns aimed at increasing the personnel’s occupational safety awareness, actively making safety observations and correcting any shortcomings observed. Safety findings are monitored on a daily basis through local managers. Every accident at work is reported and subject to an internal investigation. We also use safety surveys in which all employees participate.

We are more than just our work selves, which is why work–life balance is important to us. In 2024, we launched the Team Kake sponsorship programme, through which we distribute support for the hobbies of our employees’ families.

We are committed to making work even better for the Kaukokiito community. Our goal is motivated, competent and thriving staff. This can be achieved by monitoring well-being, addressing development issues, and investing further in leadership and supervisory work.
