Region Uppsala values the qualities that gender balance and diversity bring to the organization. Therefore, we welcome applicants of all genders and with different backgrounds, abilities, and life experiences.

Region Uppsala will place all permanent staff based on the needs of total defense. This means that for the individual employee, there are no obligations in peacetime, but it is solely a planning measure.

Checks against suspicion and criminal records will be made regarding all individuals that the employer intends to employ or engage for patient-related work based on the possibility that they may work in psychiatric care, habilitation, care of children and adolescents, or compulsory care of substance abusers, areas that are covered by optional record extracts. This applies to all who will work closely with patients, even if the tasks are not primarily intended to involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.

This recruitment is conducted entirely through Region Uppsala's management. We therefore decline phone calls from recruitment companies and advertisement sellers.
