Södertälje Municipality works with competency-based recruitment methods to counteract discrimination and promote diversity in the workplace.

We have many positions where we conduct register checks. A certificate of conduct (criminal record and suspicion register) from the Swedish Police Authority may therefore need to be presented by the candidate before a decision on employment is made.

An employment with us may involve placement in a security class.
