The Union of Health and Social Care Services (TEHY) is a trade union in Finland. With 125,00 members TEHY is the major trade union for trained practitioners of health in Finland. It is affiliated with the Finnish Confederation of Salaried Employees, and Public Services International.
In the autumn of 2007, Tehy organised a mass resignation in which 12 800 nurses and other members gave their notice, ending their employment on 19 Nov 2007. The resignations are in advocacy of higher salaries for Tehy members. The Finnish parliament promptly passed a law that now allows the authorities to force nurses back to work. [cite journal
