Arbetsgivaralliansen – SWEDEN

Sweden

Arbetsgivaralliansen is an independent confederation for Swedish employers such as sporting and educational associations. The organisation has the main goal to negotiate collective agreement for their members as well as help them with the implementation of the labour law.

Arbetsgivaralliansen has several National Collective Agreements in the sport sector, which include Collective Agreements for players in the highest division of ice–hockey, football and handball.

In Sweden, the social dialogue, which is subject of a national regulation, is a tradition and the first discussions in the sport sector dates back to the 70’s.

The European level represents for the Swedish social partners a natural evolution and Arbetsgivaralliansen is an active member of the European Association of Sport Employers (EASE).
