The reading of the indicator is monitored throughout the strategy period and its results are utilised in management development work. In the first measurement in autumn 2021, the indicator reading was 7.4.
At the City of Helsinki, the management competence of superisors is constantly being developed.

Goal: The City of Helsinki wants to be an appealing employer
The City of Helsinki and the entire Helsinki City Group operate in the expanding city. The number of employees required for the service production of the City of Helsinki is expected to grow. At the same time, recruiting new employees by the city is more challenging than before.
A key part in improving appeal is that the city’s current employees enjoy their work, are committed to the city as an employer and recommend the city as an employer. At its best, the current employees can attract new employees to work for the city.
This entity is measured by the recommendation index, which shows how many employees would recommend the City of Helsinki as an employer. The data describing the willingness to recommend is collected annually.
According to the 2021 Fiilari survey, the City of Helsinki would be recommended by 82 per cent of the employees who responded to the survey. In the labour shortage fields, the corresponding recommendation index was 80 per cent.
