Once you're ready, we can usually have someone employed in Sweden within a few days. Share the role, salary and start date, and we prepare a Swedish employment contract and get the employee onto payroll.
EU/EEA and Swiss citizens can start without a work permit. Everyone else needs a work permit from Migrationsverket before they start, which takes longer, and we help you plan for it.
Our Employer of Record fee in Sweden is €390 per employee/month. On top of that you pay the employee's salary, employer contributions (arbetsgivaravgifter, 31.42% of salary) and the mandatory benefits, such as sick pay and holiday pay. Mandatory benefits are passed on at cost with no markup.
In Sweden, many companies also offer a wellness allowance (friskvårdsbidrag), private health insurance and extra holiday days. Let us know if you'd like to include these or other benefits, and we'll make it happen.
If your employee is paid in SEK and you want to be invoiced in another currency, a 1.5% conversion fee applies. You see the full cost before you sign.
Employees in Sweden are entitled to 25 working days of holiday a year. Holiday pay is 12% of earnings, or the same-salary rule with a supplement for each holiday day.
A probation period can last up to 6 months, and the employer must give 2 weeks' warning before ending it. After that, the employer's notice period is 1 month for under 2 years of service, rising to 6 months after 10 years. Employees give 1 month. We set all of this up correctly in the contract.
Every person we employ for you in Sweden gets their own contact person at Fronted, who helps with everything from the first contract to payslips, holiday and sick leave.
You get a dedicated contact too. So you always have someone who knows you and your team to reach out to, not a ticket queue.
