Core offering

Tryghetsfonden TSL provides transition support, competence development, and career guidance services to workers in Sweden whose employment is terminated due to redundancy or illness, under collective agreements between LO and Svenskt Näringsliv. Services are funded by mandatory employer contributions and delivered free of charge to covered workers, with a vetted supplier network delivering localized coaching, plus partnership-based study support (via CSN) and severance pay administration (via Afa Försäkring).

Product overview

Trygghetsfonden TSL operates as a transition organization providing support services to vocational workers in Sweden. The core offerings consist of Omställningsstöd (Transition Support) for displaced workers and Kompetensstöd (Competence Support) for employed individuals seeking career development. These services are delivered through a network of contracted transition suppliers, regional offices across Sweden, and digital platforms including the TSL Portalen for coaches and the Karriärsida careers portal for recruitment. Additional modules include omställningsstudiestöd (study support in partnership with CSN), avgångsbidrag (severance pay via Afa Försäkring), and förstärkt stöd vid sjukdom (enhanced health-related support).

• CSN (Centrala Studiestödsnämnden)coreStrategic or Co-development PartnerTSL partners with CSN for omställningsstudiestöd (transition study support), which allows eligible workers to receive financial support during longer education. TSL provides study and career guidance and assists participants with their CSN applications, including writing opinions/assessments for CSN.
• Afa FörsäkringcoreOthersTSL refers eligible participants (those aged 40+) to Afa Försäkring for avgångsbidrag (AGB, severance pay). TSL provides information about AGB and directs participants to Afa Försäkring for the actual benefit.
• ForaminorOthersFora administers the processing of state compensation (statlig ersättning) for employers who pay contributions to Trygghetsfonden TSL. Employers can recover their contribution costs through Fora's system.
• 25 Transition Suppliers (e.g., 7H-omställning AB, Abach HR Consulting AB, ABF Progress AB, AHG Omställning AB, etc.)coreImplementation/ SI/ Consulting PartnerTSL contracts approximately 25 transition suppliers to deliver job coaching and career guidance services.

Direct peers

• Trygghetsstiftelsen: Trygghetsstiftelsen operates the equivalent transition and competence support framework for SAF/LO-related sectors and adjacent bargaining areas in Sweden, overlapping with TSL in mandate, services, and funding model (employer contributions with state reimbursement via Fora).
• TRR Trygghetsrådet: TRR is the Swedish transition organization for white-collar workers covered by the collective agreement between Svenskt Näringsliv and PTK, making it the structural mirror image of TSL (which serves LO/blue-collar workers). Both operate statutory transition mandates, deliver coaching, study guidance, and severance referral via Afa, and compete for share of the Swedish outplacement conversation.
• Omställningsfonden: Omställningsfonden is a sectoral Swedish transition fund that delivers omställningsstöd to workers covered by specific collective agreements. Comparable to TSL in statutory role, services offered, and reliance on the same Afa/CSN/Fora ecosystem partnerships.
• TRS (Trygghetsrådet för statligt anställda): TRS provides transition support to state employees in Sweden under a parallel omställningsavtal. Directly comparable as a collectively-agreed transition organization with comparable coaching, study, and career guidance offerings for a defined worker population.

Broad incumbents

• Right Management (ManpowerGroup): Right Management is ManpowerGroup's outplacement and talent development arm, providing redundancy support, career coaching, and workforce consulting worldwide. Comparable to TSL in core outplacement services but addresses employers commercially, not via a Swedish collective-agreement mandate.
• LHH (Lee Hecht Harrison): LHH is a global outplacement and career transition provider (part of The Adecco Group) with corporate-redundancy, coaching, and re-employment offerings comparable to TSL's omställningsstöd and kompetensstöd, but operating on a commercial fee-for-service model across many geographies rather than as a collective-agreement-mandated body.
• Randstad RiseSmart: Randstad RiseSmart delivers outplacement, career transition, and talent mobility solutions to global enterprises, directly overlapping TSL's employer-side redundancy advisory and individual coaching offerings. Operates on subscription/fee model rather than mandatory contribution.

Emerging players

• CareerArc: CareerArc delivers outplacement, career transition, and unemployment programs to enterprise clients, with a focus on social employer branding and modern coaching delivery. Operates as a digital-first adjacenter in the same career transition space as TSL.
• Jobbsprånget: Jobbsprånget is a Swedish job-matching initiative focused on helping newly arrived and internationally trained professionals enter the Swedish labor market. While narrower than TSL, it competes for the same transition/coaching funding from public and collective sources and offers overlapping career guidance services.
• Intoo (formerly CareerMind): Intoo provides outplacement, career coaching, and redeployment programs to enterprises globally. Comparable service overlap with TSL (career transition, employer advisory, re-employment outcomes) but with a tech-enabled SaaS delivery model targeting corporate buyers.
