The head lawyer from SAK (one of the biggest labour unions) has considered the info booklet basically a good thing and this as a wide negotiation strategy and spreading info positive.

According to El Mundo, these employees are for temporary staff shortage situations. Also the contract length is 3 months, starting from the November. Incidentally the agreement with unions is due about this time. Of course it is not completely sure that this is the reason why Finnair is hiring the breakers, but I dont really see any other reason for this amount of employees to be hired just to wait around.

Finnish translation of the article.
