Swedish Long-Term Surveys

The aim of the Long-term Surveys is to produce reference data for economic policy and to contribute to the economic policy debate. A central task is to analyse challenges and opportunities for the Swedish economy in the long term and study what they mean for economic policy.

A broad study of the Swedish labour market

The current Long-Term Survey will present a broad study of the Swedish labour market and propose measures that may lead to a more efficient labour market in the long term.

Below are examples of areas to be analysed:
- Labour market policy formation and development potential
- Function of unemployment insurance
- Design of the social security systems
- The education system and labour market entry.

The main report will be presented in spring 2011.
