Legal aid secretary assisting the members of the estate of a deceased Finland’s public legal aid offices processed 71 319 cases in the year 2009, 10 059 of these cases were related to inheritance. In these figures are not all those callers who want to have quick advice by telephone. Legal aid secretaries have most contact with the customer on inheritance cases and all cases related to property of a deceased person. The purpose of my study is to help legal aid secretaries with practical means. My study deals with the members in the estate of a deceased, their responsibilities and duties. I also explain matters related to the management of a property after a deceased person and the legal perspective of indebted estate of a deceased and indebted member of estate. My study is based on legal inheritance literature, legislation and articles. Based on my study I have made a guide “book” for Helsinki legal aid office’s secretaries. The guide book contains the key issues of my study and also essential contact information and some more common legal deadlines in inheritance cases. In addition I have composed and partly updated official standard documents that are used in Helsinki legal aid office. I have also written some memos for reception and for legal aid secretaries concerning estate inventory deed....

Working abroad – A guide to working in Ireland This thesis was carried out in the form of a project form to produce a guide to working in Ireland. The objective of the work was to help a Finnish employee integrate into life in Ireland. The guide is compiled through information derived theory, focused interviews and the researcher’s own experiences of accustoming Finnish immigrants to Irish culture and studying immigration regulations. In addition, this guide offers advice with organising the relocation arrangements from Finland. The theoretical framework is divided into three sections. The first section studies emigration, preparations and matters relating to Finland after emigrating. The second section investigates living in a new country. The themes are culture shock, integration, registration, taxation, social security, job and house hunting, employment, schools and day care. The last section concentrates on culture and manners though the perception of time, individuality and collectivism, customs, work culture and national celebrations. The research was implemented with qualitative theme interviews. Since the main part of the target group lives in Ireland, the theme interview was modernized and carried out using email. Seven people participated in the interviews. This research reveals that Finnish people integrate into life in Ireland quite well. Adversities mainly relates to bureaucracy and local customs. It also reveals that Ireland is currently struggling to recover from a big recession and therefore this is not the best time to move there. The number of immigrants has decreased dramatically but nevertheless Ireland interests and still holds possibilities for the Finnish sojourner....

The publicity of district court documents Our thesis handles the publicity of district court documents. The district court handles and produces different kinds of documents some of which are highly delicate. The district court gives infor-mation on these documents to different parties. The civil servants have to know exactly what information and to whom they can or they have to give out and which documents are confidential. The district court has to notify the defendant, the plaintiff, the complainant and the public prosecutor about the phases of the court case. The personnel of the district court also have to give information to witnesses, to parties to be heard, the police, the press and otherwise interested people. All information is not public and cannot be given out to whomever. The personnel have to consider when the information can and should be given out. We both work in Tuusula district court. The subject matter is important to us because to our knowledge there is no actual comprehensive and clear guideline on the publicity of documents in Tuusula district court. The information is scattered, splintered detail information or it is difficult to find. This does not serve the personnel which have to deal with it daily. Not to mention that if the information is given out to the wrong person at the wrong time it can jeopardize the legal protections of the parties involved in the legal case. Also the civil servant may have violated the rules on the publicity of documents. Therefore our purpose was to produce a clear and simple guideline where you can find the key issues about the matter. In other words the information you can give out on the district court documents, to whom and when. Our thesis proceeds through defining the concepts to the documents of the district court. We also carried out an inquiry to the personnel of Tuusula district court which we are handling after the theory part. We analyse the inquiry results in the same context. The outcome of our thesis is a clear and simple guideline on the publicity of district court documents the purpose of which is to ease the work of the district court personnel....

The Financial Reporting of an Association Case: The Finnish Evangelical Lutheran Mission This Bachelor’s thesis describes the financial reporting of associations in general, as well as how the financial reporting is executed in one specific case association. The case association is The Finnish Evangelical Lutheran Mission and the thesis is based on an assignment that came from a representative of this association. The assignment was to study the present state of the association’s financial reporting and compare it to the current theories. The main focus is kept on the reporting that is targeted for the most important interest groups that are named to be the personnel, management group, board, congregations and the general public. Based on these things the goal of the research was to find out what the present state of The Finnish Evangelical Lutheran Mission’s financial reporting is in general and from the perspective of the most important interest groups. The theory section discusses the association’s activities, external and internal accounting and financial reporting based on literature as well as, for example, on the accounting law and the association law. The theory section creates rather a whole picture of the association’s finance and the reporting associated with it. It functions as a base for the empirical part which was accomplished as a qualitative research. The research was chosen to be conducted by interviews and the present state of the financial reporting is described based on the answers obtained from the interviews. The perspectives and opinions of the interest groups come from the general feedback and the knowledge that is found inside the association. The results of the interviews showed that both external and internal reporting are executed rather well in this association. A few problems were revealed but the main thing is that the external accounting seems to follow all the laws and regulations as it should and the internal accounting produces all the information needed for the personnel and the management. The problems that rose from the study are the congregation’s reports of their support and how the use of certain allowances is reported in the association. Both the problems are very concrete and easily interfered and therefore possible to solve and fix. There are also every now and then some problems because of the fact that the personnel are not overly interested in the association’s finance. It would be very important to get the personnel interested in the association’s finance so that everybody would understand their own responsibilities and the consequences of their acts....

Asiakaslähtöinen tuoteryhmähallintaprosessi kilpailukyvyn parantamiseksi
(Laurea-ammattikorkeakoulu, 2011)
Opinnäytetyössäni perehdyn yrityksen tuoteryhmähallintaprosessiin ja sen tehostamiseen erikoistavarakaupassa. Kilpailu kovenee erikoistavarakaupan alalla koko ajan. Menestyminen markkinoilla yritykseltä täytyy pystyä vastaamaan paremmin asiakkaiden tarpeisiin. Asiakkaat ovat entistä aktiivisemmin alkaneet toivoa entistä yksilöllisempää tuotevalikoimaa, mutta yritykset toimivat helposti turvallisuushakuisesti tuotevalikoimansa suhteen. Kuitenkin tuote on markkinoiden lähtökohtana erikoistavakaupassa. Harva yritys tekee hyvää tulosta, jos sen tuotevalikoima ei herätä asiakkaiden mielenkiintoa. Yrityksen tulisikin entistä enemmän panostaa asiakaslähtöiseen tuoteryhmähallintaprosessin kehittämiseen löytääkseen itselleen sitä kautta mahdollisen kilpailuedun markkinoilla.
Jotta kilpailuetu saavutetaan tuotteen avulla, yrityksen täytyy pystyä tarjoamaan kohdeasiakkaalleen heidän arvostamansa tuotevalikoima. Tuotevalikoiman tulee sisältää jokin ylivoimaisuustekijä, joka erottaa sen edukseen kilpailijoiden valikoimasta. Kohdeasiakas ryhmien tunteminen on siis yritykselle elintärkeää. Segmentointiprosessin avulla yritys voi selvittää, mitkä ovat sille potentiaaliset kohderyhmät, joihin sen kannattaa tulevaisuudessa panostaa tuotevalikoiman kehityksessä. Asiakkaan tarpeiden tunteminen ja ennustaminen vaatii yritykseltä jatkuvaa seurantaa ja tehokasta tuotehallintaprosessia. Yritys, joka pystyy tunnistamaan asiakkaiden ostokäyttäytymiseen vaikuttavia tekijöitä, pystyy myös hyödyntämään niitä tuotevalikoiman suunnittelussa ja markkinoinnissa.
Tutkimuksessa selvitettiin yhteistyöyrityksen nykyisen asiakaskunnan kiinnostusta yrityksen tuoteryhmiin. Tutkimus perustui asiakaskyselyyn ja yrityksen sisäisten myyntilukujen analyysiin. Tutkimustulosten analyysin avulla saatiin kuva yrityksen tämänhetkisestä tuotevalikoiman tilasta. Tulosten avulla yritys voi lähteä miettimään tuoteryhmien uudistamista valitun kohderyhmän toiveiden mukaiseksi tulevaisuudessa.
Tutkimustulosten perusteella laadittiin yritykselle kehittämisehdotuksia asiakaslähtöisemmän tuotehallintaprosessin kehittämiseksi. Tärkeimmäksi nousi tuotevalikoiman erilaistaminen kilpailijoihin verrattuna. Toinen tärkeä kehittämisehdotus oli yrityksen panostaminen kanta-asiakasjärjestelmän luomiseen ja asiakassuhteiden ylläpitämiseen. Uusia segmentointikriteerejä ja segmentointistrategiaehdotuksia löytyi myös tutkimuksen perusteella, joita yritys voisi hyödyntää segmentointiprosessissa ja tuotevalikoimassa. Jatkuva tuoteryhmähallintaprosessin seuranta ja kehittäminen antaa yritykselle mahdollisuuden pärjätä jatkossakin markkinoilla....

Implementation of E-education in Laurea University of Applied Sciences’ Finance course The purpose of this thesis was to examine the grounds for implementing E-education in Laurea University of Applied Sciences’ Finance course. In addition, the objective was to develop the Finance course’s contents to meet the future needs of implementing an E-education in the course. In the context of this thesis, E-education is referred to as education which is implemented solely via the Internet. Due to the constraints related to utilisation of information and communications technology in E-education, it is not suitable to implement traditional teaching via the Internet. Consequently, the teacher’s role is seen as an instructor during E-education. The role of the instructor includes planning and implementation of E-education as well as assisting and supporting the students who participate in E-education courses. The learning environment in E-education differentiates from the traditional learning environment. From the students’ perspective, E-education consists primarily of self-studying and self-learning. For this reason, their ability to reach the learning objectives during E-education is heavily dependent on the students’ capacity to act in a self-regulated way. Based on these observations, the developmental work of the thesis consisted of promoting the students’ ability to act in a self-regulated way by improving the guidance offered during the Finance course. The usefulness of the developmental work was measured by performing a survey for the students. In addition, its suitability in implementing E-education was evaluated by using the theory basis that was elaborated during the thesis. Based on the results of the survey and analysis, the development work improved the guidance and students’ self-regulation during the Finance course. The survey also indicated that the amount of guidance offered in Laurea should be enhanced. The results and experiences obtained from the thesis can be utilised in the implementation of E-education in future Finance courses. Laurea can also benefit from the results when assessing the necessity to enhance the guidance offered for its students....
