About Samhall

Samhall exists to create a more inclusive labor market where everyone is seen as an asset. Our mission is to create meaningful jobs for people with disabilities. Every year, approximately 2,000 people are referred to us by the Swedish Public Employment Service, and what we do is offer them a stable platform to stand on and the opportunity to train their skills and develop their competence. Our most important goal is that 1,500 people leave us every year for work outside of Samhall.

No matter where you work in our organization, our mission and goals are highly present. The conviction that all people have competence is a compass and a driving force for all of us. We believe that you, reading this, feel as strongly about this as we do.

We are 24,000 employees, including approximately 1,500 managers and specialists, with operations throughout the country. Together, we work for a more inclusive labor market that benefits individuals, organizations, and society at large.
