STT: Thousands of officials could be laid off due to cost savings

AS MANY AS thousands of officials may be laid off due to the cost savings pursued by the government of Prime Minister Petteri Orpo (NCP), reports STT. Juha Majanen, the permanent state secretary at the Ministry of Finance, estimated yesterday in an interview with the news agency that ministries and government agencies may have to resort to lay-offs due to the 200-million-euro saving target imposed on public administration for 2025.
