Employment law according to Swedish law

NORMA’s attorney Louise Lindahl and lawyer Nadja Nordlund have authored a guide to the International Comparative Legal Guide’s Swedish section on ”Employment & Labour Law 2026”.

The chapter covers common issues in employment and labour laws and regulations in Sweden, such as terms and conditions of employment, employee representation and industrial relations, discrimination, maternity and family leave rights, business sales, termination of employment, as well as data protection and employee privacy.

What happens to employees and contracts during a business acquisition or transfer? And which employee rights and protections must you understand before hiring, managing performance, or ending employment?
