Abstract
The Swedish labor law model has been in place since 1938. According to the model it is the trade unions and employers who regulate the terms of employment by collective agreements.

Sveriges inträde i EU innebär att samtliga medborgare i EU ska kunna arbeta i Sverige på samma villkor som svenska medborgare.

Lagändringar har genomförts men frågan som kvarstår är; är detta slutet för den svenska modellen? (Less)
