Finnish Forest Industries Federation renews its organization
"The environment in which we represent the interests of the forest industry is constantly evolving, and the allocation of resources must from time to time be adjusted to better match the changing needs of our work," says Timo Jaatinen, Director General of the Forest Industries Federation in Finland."We are also clarifying the division of responsibilities and preparing for coming pension transitions in conjunction with this reorganization," Jaatinen continues.?The operations of the Federation will be divided into four sectors as of the beginning of October. The divisions are named Labor Market, Forests and Environment, Energy and Infrastructure, and Business Environment and Innovation. The communications and administration services units will provide support functions for these divisions.Representing the interests of the forest industry with respect to matters that deal with the EU and Russia requires the crossing of sector boundaries. The people responsible for these tasks belong organizationally either to the Forests and Environment or the Energy and Infrastructure sectors.
