In Finland, the average skills level for adults (16-64 year-olds) is one of the highest of all countries participating in PIAAC, and young adults (16-24 year-olds) have higher skills proficiency levels than the average for adults in Finland and young people in other participant countries. Overall, an above-average proportion of workers is well matched to their skills level (one of the lowest skills mismatches across PIAAC countries). In Finland, unemployment rates across all educational levels were slightly below the OECD average in 2011, although unemployment rates for 25-64 year-olds increased in the context of the economic crisis (2008-11).
