What are the consequences of an insufficient notice period in Sweden?

If an employee does not provide a sufficient notice period, the employee may need to provide payment in lieu of notice to the employer.

If the employer provides insufficient notice, this is considered unlawful termination and the employee may be entitled to compensation and “redistribution” i.e. to have their job reinstated or to be offered another role at the company.

Is it possible to reduce the notice period in Sweden under exceptional circumstances?

It is possible to shorten the notice period in Sweden. This would require both parties to consent to the new employment termination date. This might happen in cases of relocation to a new city, a family medical emergency, or another personal or professional reason.
