Friday Knowledge - Theme How can inclusive recruitment be the way out of exclusion?
February 23 @ 8:30 am - 9:30 pm
How can we take the next step to improve integration in our own organisations and in society at large? How can we open doors and lower thresholds for more people to be part of the Swedish labour market?
How do we capitalise on the talents and unique skills of people living in excluded areas? What are the challenges and how do we overcome them?

Business examples
Anders Egelrud, CEO of Stockholm Exergi tells us about their warming up jobs, which aims to increase the employment of marginalised people. A warm-up job is a six-month fixed-term contract, which in turn leads to a desirable line in the CV and new contacts to move on in the labour market.
