Personnel

THL compiles statistics on the basis of the Central Register of Health Care Professionals maintained by the National Supervisory Authority for Welfare and Health (Valvira). All persons with a permission to practice a health care profession in Finland are recorded in the register. The statistics drawn up by THL mainly describe the active and inactive working-age labour force. The statistics contain no information on the employment status/absence from work of health care professionals.
The National Supervisory Authority for Welfare and Health (Valvira) publishes lists of health care professional by occupational group.
