It is very important that you differentiate between manual workers, non-manual workers and the self-employed. Categorising errors have consequences for both pensions and insurance cover. Please note that the managing director/CEO can be a non-manual worker, manual worker or self-employed.

It is very important that you differentiate between manual workers, non-manual workers and the self-employed. Through the insurance agreement with Fora, manual workers are covered by the SAF-LO occupational pension and insurance in the event of illness/sickness and parental leave. Non-manual workers and the self-employed are only covered by the TFA, Work Injury Insurance.

As of 1 October 2022, employers who pay a fee to a registered readjustment organisation can receive compensation for this cost in accordance with the Act (2022:850) on Basic Readjustment Assistance and Skills Support. The remuneration an employer may receive is decided by the Swedish Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency. Applications and payments are administered by Fora.
