5 reasons to join Finansförbundet

Strong CBAs

By making CBAs, we can represent the interests of both individuals and our membership as a whole. Thanks to our negotiating experience, we make collective agreements that increase the annual income of our members by tens of thousands of kronors.

The more members we are, the greater our strength in negotiations with employers.

Income insurance

Our income insurance offers protection if you become unemployed and is suitable for members whose earnings exceed the ceicling set by a-kassan, the Swedish unemployment insurance fund. For salaries up to SEK 80,000 per month, our insurance offers 80 percent of your earnings for a period of 120 working days. We also offer additional insurance for salaries up to SEK 120,000.

Personal services

As a member, you can receive advice and help in negotiations, as well as councelling and support from our specialists with employment legislation. Among our many services, we offer help with SwedSec license cases. Please note that most of our services require a minimum of three-month membership.

Industry knowledge

Finansförbundet is a trade union with presence at many workplaces. We welcome anyone working in the financial sector and we have unique insight and understanding of the industry as a whole. Membership means there is always someone you can turn to for help.

Industry-specific salary statistics

As a member, you get access to specific salary information for a wide range of jobs within the financial sector. We offer annually-updated statistics that are only avaliable to Finansförbundet members.

Let us tell you why.

The Swedish model is unique, regulated both by laws and by collective agreements. A collective bargaining agreement (CBA) is a written agreement on terms of employment between an employer-representative organisation or an employer and a union organisation.

A CBA determines, among other things, your working hours, how much compensation you receive for overtime and parental leave, the length of your notice period and how much salary and pension you receive.
Learn more about the CBA.

Here is the great news: Finansförbundet has the best CBA for you in finance and fintech. As a member, you have the backing to influence and improve your everyday work life and working conditions.
