How to join

Join JHL

Join JHL

More is more! Without trade unions and their members, we wouldn’t have common rules for working life. Unions bargain, negotiate, make agreements and oversee them – they work every day in order to ensure fair and respecting treatment of the Finnish workforce. The membership fee for a member of JHL and JHL’s Unemployment Fund is just 1.38% of your taxable earned income.
