New labour agreement ends lockout at pulp and paper mills in Finland

HELSINKI, July 1, 2005 (Press Release) - The Finnish Forest Industries Federation and the Paperworkers' Union have concluded a new collective labour agreement that ends the lockout at UPM's Finnish pulp and paper mills and converting units. The lockout will end today, 1 July, 2005. Strikes and the lockout have lasted for 47 days at UPM's mills.

"The new contract is a step in the right direction and meets the modern needs better than before. The agreement will create opportunities to develop the competitiveness of the Finnish units. The new contract leaves room and possibilities for the local mill management and employees to agree locally on how to organise the work in a reasonable manner. It is also positive that people can return to their normal daily routines" says Jussi Pesonen, President and CEO of UPM.
