According to a survey from March 2020, around 55 percent of the Finnish companies in different sectors prepared at least some precautionary measures as a response to the COVID-19 outbreak. Companies in the service industry took more extensive precautionary measures, while almost 75 percent of the construction companies reported no measures to prepare for the coronavirus. However, in total around 90 percent of the Finnish companies considered the impact of the coronavirus at least somewhat negative in their business.

This question was phrased by the source as follows: "Onko yrityksessäsi tehty jo konkreettisia varautumistoimia* koronavirustilanteen aiheuttamien mahdollisten yrityskohtaisten häiriöiden minimoimiseksi?"
*Esimerkiksi henkilöstön ohjeistus, matkustusrajoitukset, etätyön lisääminen, erilaisten vaihtoehtojen selvittäminen alihankinta- ja toimitusketjuissa.
The source adds the following information: "Note that the survey results reflect the situation before the companies knew about the emergency conditions declared by the Finnish government."
Percentage points exceeding 100 percent are probably due to rounding.
