TELESTE COMMENCES CO-DETERMINATION NEGOTIATIONS IN PREPARATION FOR CORONA VIRUS IMPACT

Due to the temporary impact of the COVID-19 pandemia to Teleste’s delivery chain and demand, Teleste initiates co-determination negotiations, in accordance with the Act on Co-operation within Undertakings. The negotiations on possible temporary layoffs concern the entire personnel, approximately 500 employees, in Teleste Oyj and Teleste Information Solutions Oy in Finland and will last for a maximum of 90 days. Corresponding adapting measures will also be implemented in Teleste's foreign units if necessary. The measures are planned to be implemented in different business units in different phases based on their situation. The agreed actions are designed to adapt Teleste's operations to the difficult-to-predict market situation without compromising the favorable growth potential.
