Employed
Fixed-term, permanent, part-time? In other words, you are in paid employment. TAKU supports you in all employment situations.
TAKU is an expert in the working life of the art and culture sector, developing employment in the sector and advocating for its members’ interests. We promote a better working life by making an impact at the societal level, but our individual members are also equally important to us.
Our goals are to increase appreciation for the sector, raise salaries and guarantee fair employment terms.
Approachable, personal service
We help our members when it comes to art and culture sector employment contracts and salary. If your employer is not covered by a collective bargaining agreement, you can use TAKU’s salary and employment term recommendations. You can ask us to check your contract before you sign it, so don’t hesitate to get in touch!
If you have problems at work, the Akava Special Branches’ lawyers and specialists are there to support you. Unemployment Fund for Higher Educated Employees ERKO provides unemployment security for TAKU members.
Our union’s member benefits also include free training, opportunities for career training, travel and leisure-time accident insurance, as well as numerous leisure and well-being benefits.
