United Paper Mills Ltd and Ab Walkiakoski launched a shared staff magazine in 1931. The magazine title was Työn Äärestä. The factory units, Simpele, Myllykoski, Jämsänkoski and Valkeakoski, and from the 1950s Kaipola in Jämsä were located around the country. The aim of the magazine was to bring the company employees closer together and to reinforce their sense of unity. Työn Äärestä was one of the first Finnish staff magazines. Other similar publications by forest industry companies operating around the country were the Serlachius company's Tehdas ja Me and Ahlström's Me Kaikki.

Työn Äärestä appeared until the year 1996.
The magazine was printed on Jämsänkoski paper and the covers on Valkeakoski kraft paper until 1936. At first, the magazine came out three times a year and by the end of the decade had expanded to more than 60 pages. The contents included news items from the various locations of the corporation, personal news, and information on sporting events organised in the mill towns and villages. The contents also considered workers' families, as articles on homecraft were regularly included. The magazine published 50th and 60th birthday photos and biographies of staff members. This was an honour one could not refuse. The first Editor of the magazine was the company welfare inspector Lilli Vuorela.
