Co-operative Restaurant
Since the restaurant began in 1918, it has operated as a consumer co-operative along Rochdale Principles. Customers can buy yearly membership cards that enable them to vote at the Finnish Labour Temple annual general membership meeting, where the board of directors is chosen for the year. Workers maintain a degree of workers' self-management and organize their own work schedules.
