Maintenance is one of the most subcontracted activities in the industry. The subcontracting of maintenance can mean that many subcontracting companies operate simultaneously on a single site. Many accidents are related to subcontracting. There are notable differences between various client and supplier companies in terms of the standard of occupational safety practices and know-how.
UPM-Kymmene Oyj and Ruukki Oyj are two significant Finnish client companies. ABB Oy is a large maintenance industry supplier company in Finland as well as a subcontractor to both of these client companies. ABB Oy, in turn, also procures services from its own suppliers in the SME sector.
