Your transition organisation can help you get back into the labour market if you have been given your notice or have an expiring fixed-term contract. You can also get a grant if you are employed and want to future-proof your skills. You get a bigger grant if you are covered by a collective agreement.
Depending on which collective bargaining area you are covered by, there are three different transition organisations that you can fall under. If there is no collective agreement at your workplace, you should instead contact the public transition organisation.
If you do not know which transition organisation you fall under, talk to your manager, human resources department or trade union representative. You can also find your transition organisation by using the Trygghetsfonden TSL search engine. You need to know your employer's organisation number to use it.
Most of Unionen’s members are covered by the main agreement between the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise and PTK (the council for negotiation and cooperation), and should therefore contact the transition organisation TRR.
A small proportion of Unionen’s members are covered by the main agreement between Arbetsgivaralliansen (civil society employer organisation), Svensk Scenkonst (Swedish Performing Arts Association) and PTK , and should therefore contact the transition organisation TRS.
If you are a white-collar employee in the real estate sector, in a company belonging to the employers’ organisation Fastigo, please contact them. Note that the transition support provided by TRF is less extensive.
If you are a white-collar employee in a non-profit or cooperative organisation belonging to the employers’ organisation Fremia, contact the transition organisation Omstella.
If there is no collective agreement at your workplace, you should contact the public transition organisation, which is coordinated by the Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency.
If you intend to apply for a transition study grant, always start by contacting your transition organisation for guidance and a statement before submitting your application to CSN. There are several reasons for this:
