Region Uppsala values the qualities that a balanced gender distribution and diversity bring to the operations and welcomes applicants of all genders and with different birth backgrounds, abilities, and life experiences.

Region Uppsala assigns all permanent staff for war-time duties based on the needs of the total defence. This entails no obligations for the individual employee in peacetime but is solely a planning measure.

Before a decision on employment, checks of suspicion and criminal registers will be conducted for all job seekers who, in the sought position, may come to work within psychiatric care, habilitation, care of children and adolescents, or involuntary care of addicts, areas covered by optional register extracts. This thus applies to all who will work close to patients, even if the tasks at present are not intended to primarily involve work with the above-mentioned patient groups.

This recruitment is conducted entirely through Region Uppsala, and we decline phone calls from recruitment agencies and advertising sales.
