Landsorganisationen i Sverige (LO), also known as the Swedish Trade Union Confederation, is a federation of 13 affiliated trade unions representing approximately 1.4 million workers across industries such as construction, electrical work, retail, hospitality, industry, and municipal services. The private company is based in Stockholm, Sweden. Established in 1898, LO coordinates collective bargaining and advocates for improved wages, secure jobs, better working conditions, social justice, and workers' influence in workplaces and society. The organization engages with policymakers and participates in societal debates to influence political decisions affecting labor rights, welfare, and employment security. LO maintains clear boundaries among its member unions to prevent competition and fosters solidarity through collective union efforts. It collaborates politically with the Social Democrats and youth organizations, sharing goals of full employment, job security, and a solidaristic welfare system. Internationally, LO is part of the labor movement promoting better working conditions and human rights. The LO website provides resources such as news updates, labor issue reports, educational materials, seminars, forecasts, debates, and multimedia content, as well as information about affiliated unions, membership options, and services like "bytlofack," an online platform for switching or joining unions. The site also lists authorized staffing agencies with collective agreements and offers newsletter subscriptions. and has subsidiaries in Sweden.
