What is Labore?

We are The Labour Institute for Economic Research LABORE, formerly known as Palkansaajien tutkimuslaitos, an independent research institute founded in 1971. We focus on applied economic research. Our main areas of expertise include labor economics, public economics, macroeconomics, and industry economics. We produce business cycle forecasts, industry reports, and monitor the economy and household finances. Our published magazine, Talous & Yhteiskunta (Economy & Society), along with podcasts, provide up-to-date information and perspectives on economic and societal issues.
