Aino tests the fitness level of Finavia’s rescue employees

Aino Health Management will continue to carry out fitness tests for Finavia’s rescue
employees and provide them with training on fitness maintenance and improvement. The agreement on fitness
test services was signed on 18 November 2015.

Aino and Finavia have been
cooperating since 2010. During their long partnership, they have created well-established test practices
that ensure equal treatment and reliable results. The tests are carried out by professionals with
qualifications in fitness testing and the use of test software.

Airport employees are
required to have certain qualifications for their duties. For example, firefighters and rescue employees
must pass a specific test. The number of employees who passed the test was highest in 2010. Enhanced
training was organised for the employees who failed. “After six months of training, most of the employees
passed the test with regard to oxygen uptake,” says Jarmo Iisakka, Head of Sales and Marketing at Aino.

Aino
is a leading provider of fitness test services in Finland. It is also responsible for developing fitness
test software, such as FireFit and MilFit, for specialised fields. “Our cooperation with Aino has proved
that their services and expertise meet our needs,” says Veli-Matti Sääskilahti, Head of Rescue and
Firefighting at Finavia.

Fitness tests for airport employees

Muscle
fitness tests are organised at airports using Aino’s mobile testing equipment. These include bicycle
ergometer tests using a calibrated, medically precise ergometer (DAUM ergo_bike Medical 8i_2) and the
FireFit software (indirect sub-maximal test with four-minute periods).

The muscle fitness
test includes pull-ups, squats (45 kg), bench presses (45 kg) and sit-ups. The participants are provided
with personal feedback, printouts and exercise guidelines and recommendations.
