Finnish work is a value choice - Protect has been awarded the Key Flag

The Association for Finnish Work has awarded Protect with the Key Flag as a sign of a service produced in Finland and employing people in Finland. The Key Flag covers both Protect's expert services and the PRO24 system.

Protect is an expert in safety, quality and management, with a core mission to safeguard people's wellbeing, business and the environment. - The Key Flag helps us to communicate Protect's strong local identity. The company is fully Finnish-owned, and both the expert services and the PRO24 system are produced in Finland," says Protect's CEO Pertti Salo. The servers that contain the data customers enter into PRO24 are also located in Finland. - Many of our customers are safety-critical, and our promise to our customers is that the data is located in Finland, Salo continues. For Protect, domesticity is also a way to stand out from the competition. - As the only player in the industry, we offer customers a combination of both a Finnish system and domestically produced safety management and quality management services. This is a service package that our customers have proven to appreciate," says Anita Trenn, Sales Director at Protect. According to her, the emphasis is particularly strong in safety management, where national legislation is largely at stake. In addition to Protect's in-depth knowledge of safety legislation, the PRO24 system is tuned to Finnish safety management requirements.

Anita Trenn says that the Key Flag award is also linked to responsibility and the employer promise. - Responsibility is a natural part of Protect's operations and services. At its best, safety and quality management is externally visible as a socially, economically and ecologically responsible business. Good management ensures the company's performance. As an employer, we also place great emphasis on the well-being of our staff. A responsible employer image ensures that we have a skilled workforce now and in the future. - It is a great pleasure to have Protect , a company based in Kokkola, as a holder of the Key Flag, among the almost 4,000 Key Flag companies. Reliability and responsibility are widely associated with the Key Flag, and Protect embodies these values," says Reetta Mentu, Marketing Manager of the Finnish Working Environment Federation. Protect is therefore a living example of the core messages of the Key Flag, responsible and reliable Finnish work, continues Reetta Mentu. The Key Flag is a mark of origin awarded to products and services made in Finland, which, in addition to its origin, indicates that it promotes Finnish work. The Association for Finnish Work works to ensure that Finnish work thrives and that work in Finland is successful.
