A prerequisite for starting an employment at Olivia is that you, as an applicant, can present a valid ID document and submit a certificate of personal details (personbevis) as well as any documents proving the right to work in Sweden. You can easily download the certificate of personal details from the Swedish Tax Agency's website.

Due to the fact that the position may involve solo work, night work, and tasks that according to the Swedish Work Environment Authority's regulations (AFS 2012:3) cannot be performed by minors, you must be at least 18 years old.

To work with children and young people under 18, you are required to present a certificate of good conduct (extract from the criminal record). From March 1, 2026, new rules apply meaning that the register control will include both extracts from the criminal record and extracts from the suspicion register. The extract is ordered via the Police Authority's e-service. Note that processing times may vary, so it is advisable to order well in advance.

The extract is called "Work with children according to LSS" and can be ordered with BankID via the following link: https://polisen.se/tjanster-tillstand/belastningsregistret/barn-med-funktionsnedsattning/ (https://polisen.se/tjanster-tillstand/belastningsregistret/barn-med-funktionsnedsattning/)

We recommend that you ensure you have current extracts in accordance with current legislation and the new rules coming into force on March 1, 2026.
