We expect a change in labour legislation that comes into force on 1 October this year. What is happening in the autumn is that general fixed-term employment, which is all fixed-term employment including hourly, but not temporary employment, disappears as a form of employment and is replaced by special fixed-term employment (Särskild visstidsanställning – SÄVA). The new preferential right requires

Finally! We are now (almost) at the execution phase of the ventilation project in the Ecology building! Years of planning and discovering that “nobody thought of this” have hopefully prepared us as much as possible for what is going to happen. So what will actually happen? The entire ventilation system at the Ecology building attic will be exchanged for a new one! Half this summer, and the other h

The basis of the legislation is that permanent employment becomes an even stronger norm and fixed-term employment is more quickly converted to permanent employment. The time is 1 year of fixed-term employment instead of the previous 2 years and is counted retroactively from the first of March this year. What do the new rules mean for our various employment types? General fixed-term employment (ALV

In an effort to reduce electricity prices ahead of the coming winter, the government is asking all authorities to save as much energy as possible. We, therefore, need to review our energy use and see where we can save. If we all chip in and save, the risk of planned power cuts during the winter is reduced.
