Why have anyone on call in Finland then? If the companies pay full salaries anyway, can't they ask the person to work as usual then

(Or is there a 40 h/week limit or night work rules or something that prevents that?)

There are limits on working hours, but I guess the reason is obvious as elsewhere.

You have your team of 20+ developers/sysadmins working Mon-Fri, 9am-5pm, and then you have a single individual responding to on-call events outside those hours.
