Abstract
This article considers the gender aspects of the collective bargaining in the paper industry in Finland in 2005. In the negotiations, the employers' representative and Paperiliitto (the Paper Union) struggled to find a compromise on the issue of outsourcing. The collective bargaining process is analysed with the concept of representativeness. Regarding internal and reputation representativeness Paperiliitto has weakened somewhat, but has remained stable on the dimensions of external and legal representativeness. Paperiliitto has shown its commitment to gender-equality. The current collective agreement shows that Paperiliitto is generally speaking a representative actor, both towards its members and its social partners.
