Pension Plan

Remote offers an optional pension plan, which also includes life, disability, waiver of premiums, and workplace accident insurance.

If you would like to offer the pension plan you must offer it to all Swedish employees on your team.

Contribution rates are:

  • 4.5% on pensionable salary between 0 and 7.5x the Income Base Amount (IBA).
  • 30% on pensionable salary between 7.5 and 30x the Income Base Amount (IBA).
  • No contributions are payable on pensionable salary above 30x the IBA.
    The IBA for 2024 is SEK 76,200.
  • Example: An employee with an annual salary of 800,000 SEK. In Sweden, the 2024 IBA (income base amount) is 76 200 SEK. This means that 7,5 IBA x 74 300 is= 571 500
    undefinedundefined

The company pays all the contributions and no contributions are required from employees.

"Pensionable salary" is defined as basic salary only. Membership in the pension scheme is open to employees aged 18 to 65.

Customers may elect to offer the mental health program benefits to their teams and can choose among 5 different plans.

If they choose to do so, they will be unenrolled and charges will stop effective from the next month.

It is essential to be aware that in certain countries, Mental Health benefits may be categorized as 'Benefits in Kind' (BIK). This categorization means that the monthly premiums, which the company pays for the benefit, might be counted as part of the employee's taxable income according to the local tax laws.

Pricing and benefits are subject to change in response to business and market changes and we will update you when those changes take place.

Remote's Benefits Practices

Remote supports our clients by offering competitive benefits packages that will help you attract and retain the best talent across the globe! Our benefits specialists have done the research on norms and requirements in each local market and have crafted packages that will allow your employees to thrive, no matter what country they live in.

Our core benefits (which often include things like healthcare) are required in some countries where we hire. We do not require customers to offer benefits in Sweden due to its strong public system and local laws that protect us (and you!) against claims of discriminatory hiring practices. However, we do recommend that employers in Sweden offer benefits to their employees, which allows them to access a wider range of options for providers and specialists as well as significantly shorter wait times. Our plans also offer global coverage (excluding the US) to protect your employees when they are traveling outside their home country. We do not add a markup on any benefits premiums or administration costs.

If you would like more insight into fair equity and benefits best practices, you can download our Global Benefits Guide here!

Understanding Hiring in Sweden
  1. In Sweden, 70%* of employers offer supplemental health insurance to their workforce. Although the country has a strong public health system, supplemental health insurance provides employees with access to a wider range of options for providers and specialists, as well as significantly shorter wait times. Our plans also offer global coverage (excluding the US) to protect your employees when they are traveling outside their home country.
  2. 90%* of employers offer a pension plan to their employees and 90%* offer life insurance. (*based on 3rd-party market research from our partners)
  3. Employers can choose to opt out of offering Remote’s core benefits in Sweden.
  4. You will be able to select a benefits plan when onboarding your employee (if you choose to offer one). From there, the employee will be enrolled and contacted with more information about their plan. Remote takes care of all the administration work so you can focus on scaling your global team!

TCE in Sweden

If you’re ready to hire a new employee in Sweden, you may have generated or received a Total Cost of Employment quote to get an estimate of what it might cost. If you haven’t, you can do so with our handy Cost Calculator tool now!

Employers hiring in Sweden must pay for social contributions mandated by the government. These costs are automatically applied during payroll:

  1. Payroll taxes (which covers national health insurance, parental insurance, retirement benefits, workers’ compensation, and other taxes)

The exact cost of the government contributions listed above can be found by using the Cost Calculator.
