With the Ascension Thursday holiday weekend approaching, help your international colleagues understand Swedish commitment to work-life balance, holidays and the concept of Squeeze Days (klämdagar).
Optimizing and scheduling around Swedish public holidays and key holiday periods are just some of the many useful topics covered in Working in Sweden; The A-Z Guide, Essential reading for anyone new to Sweden and Swedish work culture, the guide covers all the important information you won’t find in your company’s official personnel handbook, from consensus culture and flat hierarchies through to Swedish habits, norms and social codes. It’s the perfect onboarding guide for professionals relocating to Sweden, guaranteed to save a lot of time and energy figuring out why Swedes do things the way they do.
