Industriarbetsgivarna

Further, we help member companies with negotiations, and with legal assistance in court proceedings, as well as organising courses and conferences. Our work is designed to make life easier for the companies, so that they can concentrate on their core business. In those areas where the associations collaborate and act jointly, this is done under the name Industriarbetsgivarna. Collective agreement negotiations, which are at the heart of the employers organisations' activities, are handled by the individual employers' associations. The companies that form Industriarbetsgivarna have a number of things in common: The companies are highly dependent on exports to the world market. Therefore, long-term international competitiveness is an extremely crucial issue. The companies are capital-intensive, with facilities which demand major investments with long planning horizons, and so they need long contract periods. The companies have a major need for skilled employees. The whole world makes stringent demands of the companies' adaptability and so has strict requirements in terms of flexibility and expertise. The companies base their operations on raw materials. Easy access and the price of raw materials are fundamental to their business.
