What does membership cost for you as a working member?

Unionen is the trade union for all white-collar employees in the private sector. Many of us are e.g. project managers, engineers, administrators, economists, communications officers, IT consultants or sales reps.

Managers, the self-employed and students can also join Unionen. If, however, you work for the state or the municipality – or if you aren't a white-collar employee – you should join a different trade union. Read more at who can become a member and terms and conditions.

This is included when you are a member of Unionen

 

  1. A safe income insurance that complements the unemployment insurance fund

    The unemployment insurance fund does not reimburse what you earn above SEK 33,000. With our income insurance, you can, together with the unemployment insurance fund, insure income up to SEK 60,000 / month.

     

  2. Advice and help when it’s time for negotiating your salary and the performance review

    We give you advice and support when it's time for salary negotiation and performance review meeting. The salary negotiation is the most important meeting of the year for you and your salary. With the help of our salary statistics and salary coaching, we can help you get well prepared for your salary negotiation and increase your chances of being heard for your requirements. Performance reviews, which you should have once a year, are for developing you as an employee and the company as a whole. Getting well prepared for these talks is just as important as preparing for the salary negotiation. Of course we will help you with that too!

  3. Problems at work? Contact Unionen

    Advice and negotiation assistance in all matters of working life. Sometimes it gets stressful. Sometimes you do not agree. Sometimes the problems pile up. But it's OK - as a member you get advice and support when problems and disputes arise in the workplace.
