Business Description

The Employment Unit consists of six different workplaces, and its primary mission is to help people outside the regular labor market increase their chances of obtaining employment in the open labor market. A first step towards this goal may be to temporarily receive a referral to the Employment Unit, where there are good opportunities for work trials and gaining insight into one's own abilities. It is also a good place for newcomers to meet Swedes and thereby gain training in the Swedish language and understanding of Swedish customs and practices. The Employment Unit's largest partner is the Public Employment Service, but collaboration also occurs with several other parties.
