Walkouts in different locations in Finland within the facility service sector
The reason for the walk out is the stiffness in the collective agreement negotiations and the terms and conditions from the employer's side, which includes an extensive list of impairments and impacts that would clearly be negative for the workers.

PAM members and ISS Services' facility workers and cleaners, stationed at the paper factory UPM Kymmene in Kaukaa, stopped work and walked out earlier today.
