Joint Organisation Of State Employees
The Joint Organisation of State Employees ( fi, Valtion yhteisjärjestö, VTY) was a trade union federation bringing together public sector workers in Finland. The federation was established in 1921 and became known as the Federation of Civil Servants. Most of its affiliates left the Finnish Federation of Trade Unions (SAK) in the late 1950s, so in 1961, it was reconstituted to act as the national trade union centre for these unions. In 1969, it was again reformed, as the Joint Organisation of State Employees, and it became a founding affiliate of the Central Organisation of Finnish Trade Unions, successor to the SAK. The affiliates of the federation declined over time; for example, the Railway Workers' Union and Union of Locomotive Drivers were affiliated until 1995. In 1998, it had 28,514 members. By 2005, the federation's affiliates were:VTYOrganisaatiokaavio/ref> * Coastguard Union (MVL) * Finnish Custom Officers' Union (TL) * Prison Officers' Union (VVL) * State and ...

Trade Unions In Finland
Trade involves the transfer of goods and services from one person or entity to another, often in exchange for money. Economists refer to a system or network that allows trade as a market. An early form of trade, barter, saw the direct exchange of goods and services for other goods and services, i.e. trading things without the use of money. Modern traders generally negotiate through a medium of exchange, such as money. As a result, buying can be separated from selling, or earning. The invention of money (and letter of credit, paper money, and non-physical money) greatly simplified and promoted trade. Trade between two traders is called bilateral trade, while trade involving more than two traders is called multilateral trade. In one modern view, trade exists due to specialization and the division of labour, a predominant form of economic activity in which individuals and groups concentrate on a small aspect of production, but use their output in trades for other products a ...

Public Sector
The public sector, also called the state sector, is the part of the economy composed of both public services and public enterprises. Public sectors include the public goods and governmental services such as the military, law enforcement, infrastructure, public transit, public education, along with health care and those working for the government itself, such as elected officials. The public sector might provide services that a non-payer cannot be excluded from (such as street lighting), services which benefit all of society rather than just the individual who uses the service. Public enterprises, or state-owned enterprises, are self-financing commercial enterprises that are under public ownership which provide various private goods and services for sale and usually operate on a commercial basis. Organizations that are not part of the public sector are either part of the private sector or voluntary sector. The private sector is composed of the economic sectors that are intende ...
