Finland has a history of being the happiest country in the world, and it's also among the most gender-equal, too.

A lot of that has to do with the laws and social policies it has in place. Many Nordic countries have generous paid leave policies, government-subsidized child care, free college , pay gap reporting requirements and pay transparency policies.

The company's workforce is split between those who work on the manufacturing side, as well as corporate employees who work in an office setting. Last year, there was a 1% pay gap among genders in their manufacturing workforce, where women were paid 1% more than men on average; meanwhile, among their office workers, men were paid roughly 1% more than women.

, which requires employers in EU countries to review their compensation practices and publish their results to ensure gender equity. The directive also requires employers communicate salary ranges on job ads or to candidates before the interview stage. That being said, Hallila acknowledges their workforce isn't equally split by gender. Men are generally overrepresented at the manufacturing company, which is roughly 70% men and 30% women. The firm has slightly better parity in its leadership ranks, where 62% of leaders are men compared with 38% of women.
