We help with work life solutions

Work is too important to be left to chance or old models.

Organizations are increasingly asking: How do we ensure the right skills now and in the future? And who will help when there are too many options or not enough?

At Barona, we help you make the right decisions. We are your partner when you want to make decisions that work in everyday life and carry into the future.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

When work needs people, we deliver

Barona Work is your solution for growth and continuity

Work fuels business. But to deliver results, timing, skills, and availability must align. That’s why Barona Work exists. To unite people, competence, and technology into solutions that keep your work moving.

Barona Work brings together our core expertise in workforce solutions, from staffing and recruitment to HR consulting. For companies, this means flexibility, speed, and certainty. And most importantly, a partnership where skills are seen as a source of competitive advantage.

We support our clients in real-world challenges

Work rarely follows a straight line. We’ve supported companies for over two decades in navigating both the expected and the unexpected. Here are just a few common scenarios:

When daily operations fall behind

Work gets delayed because workers can’t be deployed fast enough
Internal teams are stretched thin, and capacity hits a limit
Absences, seasonal peaks, or project surges spike resource needs

When decisions need clarity

No time or in-house expertise for recruitment
Someone is hired in a rush, and the expectations don’t align with reality.
HR runs from fire to fire, while development efforts stall

When the structure of work needs rethinking

Volume increases, but your organization can’t scale with it
Tasks consume more time than the value they create
You need long-term development, not just a one-off hire

As our client numbers grew, we needed to find new staff as quickly as possible. With Barona, we first carefully reviewed Finnair’s needs and agreed on a common approach. The people from Barona kept us well informed throughout the recruitment process; every day, we reviewed the progress of the recruitment, the number of candidates, and the profiles together. Of course, the tight schedule created pressure, but everyone did their best to work together successfully and achieve our objectives.

I can definitely recommend Barona, as they manage recruitment smoothly even under tight deadlines.

Navigating the transformation of work

Work may change, but its value endures.

As needs, skills, and expectations evolve, organizations must stay flexible and insightful. Based on our 2025 Working Life Survey, these trends are shaping today’s working life. Do any of them sound familar?

Job content matters more than ever

It’s the second most common reason for considering a job change, right after salary. Matching the right role and person is critical.

Leadership and line management are under the spotlight

28% of job changers cite management as a major reason – more than ever before.

Younger and older generations have different expectations

Under-30s rate their personal work-life resilience lower than older age groups.

Hundreds of organizations around Finland use our services.

We help organizations of different sizes from different fields. Locally, domestically and in the Nordics.

Barona improves job search – AI recommendations to speed up employment

Young people want an international working environment – what about companies?

Barona’s recent Life at Work survey reveals that young workers in particular want multilingual and international teams. Yet in many companies, attitudes are still reserved. How to meet future expectations and ensure the availability of talent?
