Metacore Benefits
Helsinki
Without our people, there would not be Metacore – therefore, our people are our most important investment.
We provide our employees with a broad range of benefits to promote overall wellbeing and to contribute towards a healthy work-life balance. Check out what all we have in store for Metacoreans!
Health is Wealth
We value the health and wellbeing of our employees above everything else. To enable that, we provide a broad healthcare package to all Metacoreans.
Wellbeing is never limited only to physical health. We have to care for our minds, too. All Metacoreans have access to various types of psychological support, both in-house and with external partners.
Occupational health care
Our occupational health care services are with Mehiläinen.
Our occupational health care services are very broad, and anything that impacts your work ability is worth a chat with a nurse or a doctor.
A list of services provided by Mehiläinen (not exhaustive):
- Appointments with an occupational health physician, occupational health nurse, occupational physiotherapist and occupational psychologist
- Specialist consultations upon referral by the occupational health physician
- Physiotherapy, max. 10 times a year
- Short psychotherapy, max 20 times
- Minor procedures done by a general practitioner or occupational health physician
- Radiology procedures, Ultrasound scan, Magnetic imaging, Endoscopy examinations
- Basic vaccinations (Tetanus-d and MMR) and influenza vaccination, vaccinations required by work and business travel, TBE vaccine
- Yearly check-ups with a gynaecologist or urologist
Coaching services and psychological support
Our Wellbeing and Performance Lead is available for psychological support, personal development and individual coaching on topics such as team functioning, leadership, work stress and wellbeing. All discussions are always confidential and aim at increasing your wellbeing and self-knowledge.
We also offer coaching through an outside coaching service called Mindy. Mindy coaches are all psychologists with short therapy training. You can get coaching through Mindy if you have some personal thinking, working or emotional skills that you would like to develop.
Work Smoothly
You bring the skills and knowledge, we bring the necessary equipment and support! From devices to software to food, we’ve got you covered!
Devices
We provide our employees with all equipment needed for the role. Employees have the option to choose the operating system of choice and be equipped with the latest hardware (computer, phone, peripherals).
Phone plan & home internet
Metacoreans’ phones are equipped with 5G transfer speeds with unlimited data use, phone minutes and SMS messages. In addition, all of our permanent employees are provided with a high-speed home internet connection and the terminal equipment needed.
Lunch
Metacoreans are provided with an Edenred voucher card. You have the option to select the monthly value added to the card (up to 214€) which can be used to pay for meals in restaurants or home delivery apps. Of the total value, Metacore will cover 25%.
Competence development
We want to encourage everyone to develop their skills and competences in any way they see fit. We don’t have any specific learning platform in use, which means that everyone can choose which relevant courses or training to attend and expense it back to the company.
Treat Yourself
Tickets to the opera or a massage during a lunch hour? We support that! We provide several individual benefits to show our appreciation for Metacoreans also outside the office.
Culture & Sports benefits
Using the same Edenred card as with the lunch benefit, employees can use up to 400€ per year on culture (music festival tickets, theater or movie tickets, events, etc.) or sports (gym memberships, booking fees, etc.) The costs are covered by Metacore completely.
Wellbeing benefit
Available through the Edenred app, this tax-free benefit covers essential health services, including dental care and musculoskeletal treatments (such as physiotherapy).
Massage benefit
Employees are provided a massage benefit up to 400€ per year available through the Edenred app. This too is completely on top of employees’ regular salary.
Birthday Holiday
As a birthday present, you will get a day off for your birthday!
For added flexibility, MyChoice allows employees to choose how they use their 800€ core benefit. You can transfer the balance from Culture & Sports and Massage benefits to Wellbeing benefits, based on your individual needs.
Safe & Secure
All of our employees are insured by the mandatory Workers Compensation Insurance (carried by Metacore) which gives a comprehensive insurance cover at work and quick access to care.
In addition, we provide all employees with a comprehensive Leisure-time Accident Insurance, which covers you also during your free time.
And who doesn’t want to travel stress-free? We also provide a Corporate Travel Cover which insures our employees and their luggage during travel, whether the travel is for work or for leisure.
Getting Around
Helsinki is a wonderful city with a variety of transportation possibilities – we want to ensure you get around smoothly.
Public transport benefit
We encourage our employees to use public transport when possible. Through the Edenred card, Metacore covers all public transport fees between your home and the office.
Bike benefit
Permanent employees can get a bicycle through the GoByBike.fi service after their trial period. You can choose your bike from any store as long as its price doesn’t exceed 4000€. This benefit is tax-free, and 50% of the taxable value is deducted from the employee's gross salary monthly, with Metacore adding 50% of the tax value to the salary. On average, employees can save 35-60% of the bike's purchase price.
Parking
We also have an option for Metacoreans to substitute Edenred´s public transport card for a free parking spot from our office building or next door garage.
Outstanding Office
We know that we are biased – but our office rocks! We take pride in having a space where all Metacoreans feel comfortable and productive. And obviously, the additional perks don’t hurt either!
Our Penthouse
We have a sauna and jacuzzi area called Penthouse on the 8th floor of the building. You can book it for your personal events to spend time with your family & friends.
Clubs & one-time events
We support both clubs (we already have clubs for books, padel, writing… you name it!) as well as one-time events and activities.
Metacore Gym
We have a small gym with basic equipment for employees in the building next door.
Breakfast in the office on Mondays
Breakfast is served in the main lounge every Monday (and the best snacks all week)!
A Helping Hand
We can all use a little help in our everyday lives, whatever it may mean to each individual. We do our best to assist our employees with small but important tasks.
Serfino concierge services
Metacore employees are eligible to use the Serfino services up to 500€ per month to help with everyday living, such as cleaning, childcare, concierge services, housekeeping, etc. The employee will create a personal contract with the company, but Metacore will take care of all the expenses (up to 500€ per month).
Finnish Lessons
We offer 10 Finnish lessons through our partner Serfino. You can use your monthly allowance for more lessons after you've used the 10 lessons offered to you.
Caring for a sick child
In situations where your under 10-year-old child gets sick, you have the option to either stay at home yourself or hire a professional caregiver free-of-charge to come to your home and take care of your child.
Are we missing something?
We are always open to new suggestions and periodically trial new benefits.
