The Swedish Employment Protection Act (LAS)

Under LAS (Lagen om anställningsskydd), employees terminated due to redundancy (arbetsbrist) enjoy strict procedural rights:

  • Full Rights During Notice: An employee retains their full monthly salary, occupational pension contributions (Tjänstepension), and vacation accrual throughout the statutory notice period.
  • A-kassa Support: Unemployment insurance funds (A-kassa) provide up to 80% of prior earnings for the first 100 days (capped at 26,400 SEK/month), tapering to 70% thereafter.
