Temp work or substitute work

Temp work, substitute work, and work as an alternate in nursing in Päijät-Häme

In nursing, it pays to seek out your own path. When you find your own thing, your work will start to feel meaningful, motivating, and engrossing. Taking up temp positions and substituting for someone else are an excellent way of looking for your own thing. Gig work is also a great way of customising your work schedule with your other activities, letting you get to work exactly when you want to. Let’s work out a compelling package for you together!

On this page, you can find information on temp opportunities for nurses, as well as important contact information for when you want to bulk up your pay through flexible temp jobs, take on substitute assignments for various periods, or change up the manner of your employment as an alternate employee.
