    It’s not about unionizing. You don’t unionize in Sweden. Our unions cover sectors.

    It’s about the collective agreement. This is the standard here in Sweden. Basically a company will negotiate with a union and they will set the minimum pay and all of the benefits for a period. Usually 4 years then they renegotiate. When a company has signed a CBA then it’s illegal for workers to strike.

    This creates a more even playing field and gets rids of worker abuse. While creating stability in the market. Something that had worked for hundred not thousands of companies here in Sweden for over 100 years.
