Since 1 October 2022, general fixed-term employment can no longer be offered to a new employee. This employment type has been replaced by special fixed-term employment.

A special fixed-term employment is a temporary employment that can usually last a maximum of 12 months, but there are some exceptions. Read more in LAS 1982:80 5a§ (in Swedish).

Probationary employment means that a new employee and the employer have a trial period to see if the employee is suitable for the job. If the employee does not resign or is not dismissed, the probationary employment automatically turns into a permanent employment after six months.

Seasonal work is temporary employment for jobs that can only be done for a certain part of the year. The employment ends when the season ends.

Permanent employment is the most common form of employment. This means that the employment continues until the employee decides to leave, is dismissed or retires.

A contractor is not an employee of the company, but an entrepreneur or freelancer who performs tasks for the company.

A substitution is a fixed-term employment that involves an employee substituting for someone who, for example, is on parental leave, is on sick leave, or on some other temporary assignment.

A fixed-term employment is converted to a permanent employment after 12 months within a five-year period. Additionally, an employee who has worked at least nine months within a three-year period also gets priority.
