Canvas Henkilöstöratkaisut

Canvas Oy, which trades as Canvas Henkilöstöratkaisut, is a Finnish company specialising in työvoimavuokraus, the hiring out of labour, and it describes itself as more agile than the ordinary firm, the right size, very hard working and thoroughly effective. It sells suorarekrytointi, direct recruitment, alongside henkilöstövuokraus, staffing, and clients order from it in three ways: työvoimaa for people, konevoimaa for machines and työvaatteet for workwear. It rents out työkoneet, work machinery, on orders of any length, which is unusual for a staffing business and sits at the centre of how it presents itself. The foundation of its operation, in its own words, is a flexible, fast and honest way of working, applied equally to clients and to the people it employs.

The sectors Canvas serves are transport, logistics, removals and construction, and it places people into varied roles across those fields, describing itself as a business that works with the heavy industries and lives in constant change. It handles both direct recruitment and temporary staffing into those sectors, and its promise on the client side is workers at the work site with the right attitude and at the right time. On the candidate side it offers flexible work opportunities suited to different life situations, publishing open vacancies and accepting open applications from people who want to be considered for future work.

Its operating area is Pirkanmaa, Uusimaa and Varsinais-Suomi, and it invites people to come and say hello at its offices in Tampere, Turku and Helsinki. Clients are pointed to separate ordering routes for labour, machinery and workwear, and the company runs a customer login as well as an FAQ and a news section. It also operates a whistleblowing channel, which sits in the main navigation rather than buried in the footer. The clearest reason it gives clients to choose it is the combination it describes of size and speed: a company small enough to stay agile, but one that supplies both the workers and the machines for the same job.
