Our values
Finansförbundet believe that all human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. We believe in everyone’s capacity to learn, contribute with his or her experiences and knowledge, as well as, creating its own believes, take responsibility and show respect for others.
A prerequisite for achieving this is the members’ participation within the democratic process. Finansförbundet’s aim is to develop and improve employment conditions, promote equality and diversity, endorse the individual freedom, develop and strengthen the solidarity between workers. For Finansförbundet, both trade union density and the number of members within different occupation roles are fundamental for our legitimacy and strength.
