According to the Swedish Act on Codetermination in Working Life (MBL), employers are in many cases obliged to negotiate with union representatives before making decisions, for example in the case of reorganizations, changes in operations or hiring of personnel. These obligations are regulated both by law and by any binding collective agreement. This is a central part of the "Swedish model", which also characterizes the other Nordic countries.<\/p>

The relationship between employers and unions is often good, but there are also contradictions that can complicate cooperation. For many employers, especially larger ones, a well-functioning relationship with unions is of paramount importance to ensure an efficient and conflict-free work environment.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
