Occupational health

What Occupational health does

Arbetshälsa i Sverige AB is a Swedish HR and occupational health consulting firm founded in 2004 and headquartered in Linköping, operating since January 2022 as a subsidiary of ArbetshälsaGruppen Sverige AB. The company delivers integrated HR, occupational health, and organizational development services to Swedish enterprises and public-sector organizations through three core business areas: Health at Work (Hälsa i arbetet), HR-Partner outsourcing, and a regulated training portfolio. Under Health at Work, the company operates the Sjuk & Frisk digital absence-management platform (real-time reporting, automated rehabilitation triggers at 7- and 30-day thresholds, nurse-contact escalation, GDPR-compliant documentation), the Visselblåsartjänst tiered anonymous whistleblower service built around Sweden's December 2021 Whistleblower Act, and the Arbetshälsajouren 24/7 crisis hotline. HR-Partner services are delivered through time-bank packages (10/50/100 hour blocks at 980–1,150 SEK/hour) plus a staffing model with a 4-hour/week minimum. Training covers regulated Swedish work-environment curricula (OSA, SAM, BAM, employer's rehabilitation responsibility) priced 4,300–8,900 SEK per participant.

The company's technology and IP include proprietary digital platforms for absence and whistleblower workflows, the Påverka genom Språket® change-management methodology, and registered sub-brands. Distribution is built on a network of approximately 90 consultants across six Swedish offices (Linköping, Jönköping, Stockholm, Uppsala, Gävle, Hudiksvall), supported by ArbetshälsaGruppen cross-referral (Påverka Nu, AHG Omställning, AHG Redovisning, AHG Resources) and partnerships with Swedish transition councils TRR, TRS, TSn and CIKO. Revenue is generated through a hybrid model combining recurring subscriptions (HR-Partner time-banks, whistleblower tiers, Sjuk & Frisk), unit-priced training (partially subsidized by AFA Försäkring grants up to 70%), and bespoke consulting engagements. The go-to-market combines enterprise field sales (targeting HR leaders, CEOs, and organizational decision-makers), self-service productized tiers, and group-level cross-sell, with active demand generation through LinkedIn thought leadership, content marketing, and industry events including Stockholm Business Expo 2024.
