Fingrid’s combined accident frequency fell to a record low in 2025, and we reached our target easily.
Electrical work safety is based on law, standards and guidelines. These do not,
however, guarantee safe everyday operation unless everyone has the right
mindset towards their own and their colleagues’ work. It’s a matter of attitude.
A record number of investment and maintenance projects are underway in the main grid. Despite the large workload, electrical safety must be a priority at all times.
On an Aurora Line worksite nearly 50 kilometres long, the conditions can change daily. Therefore, even if the work phase feels familiar, safety must be assured every time the team starts work. Adherence to the safety plan and ongoing risk assessment are part of the everyday work on this demanding site.
More occupational accidents leading to absences happened on Fingrid’s worksites in 2023 than in the previous year, and the frequency of occupational accidents increased slightly. The number of serious occupational accidents decreased compared to the previous year.
Fingrid has strict occupational safety rules for additional earthing.
