Workforce forecasts are produced by the VATT and commissioned by a collaborative group of four ministries in collaboration with a wide network of experts from the regional authorities, trade unions, employers’ associations, ministerial representatives etc.
- The MoEC appoints a wide group of experts to steer and provide expertise of different industries for the phase of forecasting educational needs. These experts present e.g. the Mo SocAH, Local Government Employers, trade unions, regional authorities and other stakeholders.
- At the regional level, there are also several partners. Regional councils have a statutory responsibility (Act 1651/2009) to coordinate the regional preparation of the long-term and medium-term forecasts in collaboration with other regional authorities, such as universities.
- Legislation also defines the responsibilities of the hospitals districts within a catchment area for highly specialised medical care to participate in the regional forecasting process and to ensure that the sufficiency of the personnel in health care is in accordance with the care needs of the population (Act 1326/2010).
