Cooperation between employers and trade unions is a cornerstone of the Swedish labor market model. As an employer, you are required by the Co-determination Act (MBL) to both inform and negotiate with the union in a variety of situations—from organizational changes to the hiring of temporary staff. In this webinar, you will get a concrete, step-by-step guide on how you, as an employer, can fulfill your obligations and avoid common mistakes in trade union cooperation.

Aims and objectives of the course

The course aims to give you a practical and clear overview of what applies under the MBL when it comes to trade union negotiations and information obligations. You will receive guidance on how to prepare and conduct negotiations correctly and professionally, and how to strengthen your ability to act with legal certainty in contact with trade union parties.

After the course you will be able to:

  • Understand the basics of the Swedish model of trade union cooperation
  • Fulfill the employer's information and negotiation obligations under the Co-determination Act (MBL)
  • Preparing and conducting trade union negotiations according to the right structure
  • Know the rules on board representation and trade union representatives

Target group

The course is aimed at those who are new to labor law and are a CEO, HR specialist, manager, supervisor with personnel responsibility or who otherwise handle trade union contacts in your role.
