I found that the organizational structure of the policy do not follow the criteria of the main goal, which is to increase the individual’s possibilities to acquire a job. The goal of the organizational structure is instead focused on balancing the Swedish economy.

I also argue that the Swedish labor policy system needs to discover and seize the benefits of every person’s unique value and implement this on the labour market. (Less)
