Region Uppsala places all permanent 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 is made, 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, areas that are subject to optional record extracts, will be conducted. This applies to all who will work closely with patients, even if the tasks are not currently intended to primarily involve work with the aforementioned patient groups.
