Thirty-seven private job placement agencies leave Sweden's employment program

Thirty-seven private job placement agencies are being removed from Sweden's "Rusta och matcha" program. This follows stricter requirements implemented by the Swedish Public Employment Service. The removals involve 57 contracts across the country. This action comes after a review of suppliers providing job seeker assistance to the unemployed. Previously, 94 contracts were terminated a year ago. Unemployed individuals affected can choose a new placement agency.
