StaffPoint has become the official partner of the Finnish Olympic Committee as cooperation between the two organisations continues.

The partnership aims to help the wellbeing of staff at the Finnish Olympic Committee as well as assisting athletes with growth and development through life.

StaffPoint, one of Finland’s largest personnel companies, specialises in helping individuals to have a good quality working life, and started its partnership with the Finnish Olympic Committee in 2022.

StaffPoint Group chief executive Anu Ahokas said: "Flexibility and balance with work and other aspects of life, as well as caring for personnel, are key in the working life of the future.

"We know that the positive effects of exercise on people's wellbeing are undeniable.

"This is why we consider the cooperation with the Olympic Committee to be meaningful.

"We also believe that the success of Finnish top athletes gives us all energy and hope in difficult times."

Business director of the Finnish Olympic Committee Mikko Selin added: "In sports, you learn many skills that are also needed in working life - cooperation, goal-setting and not giving up.

"I believe that sport also serves as an inspiration in the pursuit of dreams in the working life.

"With StaffPoint's support, we can also help athletes recognise what they have learned and find their place in working life after their sports career."
