Kerava Work and Activity Centre

KERAVA WORK AND ACTIVITY CENTRE

Kerava Work and Activity Centre offers a variety of work activities for working-age people under the Social Welfare Act and the Act on Special Care for People with Intellectual Disabilities. The activities aim to support, maintain and promote the client's ability to work and function, life management skills, employment and inclusion in society. They promote the client's wellbeing and social skills in a holistic way. The participants learn working life skills, and…the activities are planned with the client's needs, wishes and capabilities in mind.

The YRITYS activity programme has been selling a range of packaging, phasing and assembly services to companies since 1972. We offer high-quality and cost-effective subcontracting solutions, and our partners include several local companies. The programme also prepares the participants for jobs in, for example, property management, facility maintenance and catering.

The OMA activity programme manufactures products by hand and by recycling. We weave, for example, carpets and poppanas, traditional Karelian woven fabrics. The programme aims to involve the clients as much as possible from design to final product. The unique products are sold on weekdays in the Pajapuoti shop at Kauppakaari 11, 04200 Kerava.

The service is free of charge for clients. Based on the Act on Special Care for People with Intellectual Disabilities, necessary travel to the work activities is provided free of charge. A fee is charged for the meals. No salary is paid for the work activities, but clients are paid an incentive pay.
