Posting to Sweden means that:
An employer in another country sends a worker to perform a service in Sweden during a limited period.
There is a recipient of the services in Sweden the worker is to perform.
It may also be posting when an employer contracts out or offers a worker through another company, which in turn sends the worker to Sweden.
A limited period means that there must be a start and end date for when the services are to be performed.
Recipients of the services can be companies, a customer, a financial partner or a company in the same corporate group.
More stringent requirements on employers that post workers to Sweden.
Among other things, the changes mean that if you are an employer you must:
Report a posting to the Swedish Work Environment Authority and appoint a contact person in Sweden no later than the date the posting begins; employers previously did not need to report postings that lasted a maximum of five days
Provide documentation to the recipient of service in Sweden that you have reported the posting
Inform a posted worker, who is replacing another posted worker to perform the same service in the same location, of the combined total posting time so that the posted worker can safeguard his or her right to the extended conditions that apply to a long-term posting.
