Growth support (Växa-stöd)

Are you a sole trader, a trading partnership with no more than two owners or a limited company about to hire your first employee? If you meet the rules on growth support, you can have the employer contribution reduced for up to 24 consecutive months for the first employee in your company.

With the support, you only pay old-age pension contribution (10.21 percent) on compensation up to SEK 25,000 per calendar month. For compensation over SEK 25,000, you pay the full employer's contribution (31.42 percent).
