Summer Job Voucher

Every year, Youth Services distributes summer job vouchers intended to promote the employment of young people in Espoo during the summer. The City of Espoo will pay EUR 300 to all employers who hire a young Espoo resident between 1 May and 30 September using a Nuori Espoo Summer Job Voucher.

Summer job vouchers will become available on 6 February, and young people must apply for one themselves. Please note that you must already have a summer job lined up when you apply for a summer job voucher (an employment contract or the 'Kesätyöpaikan tiedot form filled in by your employer).

In 2023, summer job vouchers will be granted to young Espoo residents born between 2004 and 2008.

The minimum duration of the summer job is 10 working days and 50 working hours, either consecutively or divided into several periods. The employer cannot be a private household, a family or a private person.

The young person must already have a summer job when they apply for a summer job voucher.

The minimum net pay is EUR 350 for 10 working days and 50 working hours. If the young person works for a longer period, their pay needs to be higher than the minimum pay. The employer will also have to pay taxes, social insurance and pension contributions and holiday compensation, in addition to the minimum net pay of EUR 350.
