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

Before a hiring decision, a check of suspicion and criminal records regarding all applicants who may work in psychiatric care, habilitation, care of children and youth, or involuntary care of substance abusers will be conducted, areas that are subject to optional record extracts. This applies to everyone who will work closely with patients, even if the tasks are not currently intended to primarily involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.
