Sweden has one of the highest standards of living in the world. An average electrician in Sweden can afford a three room apartment in the city, a summer cottage, a biofuel car, yearly vacations abroad, and daycare for two children while both parents work full time. Workers in Sweden enjoy a minimum of five weeks paid vacation each year along with paid sick leave and parental leave, including up to 480 days of paid parental leave that can be shared between working parents. Sweden provides these benefits as necessary rights to help ensure all children are healthy and well educated regardless of income or social status.

1. High Standard of Living: Workplace

With one of the highest standards of living in the
world, Sweden offers residents a good life—from the cradle
to the grave. Take for example, an average electrician in
Sweden. He is likely to have a three room apartment in the
city and may have a small summer cottage in the countryside
together with his partner, who also works full time. The
couple is able to afford a biofuel car and a yearly vacation
abroad, while supporting two children in daycare.
Like all other workers in Sweden, the electrician also
enjoys a minimum of five weeks of paid vacation per year,
along with paid sick and parental leave. If he and his partner
have a child, they are entitled to up to 480 days of paid
leave. Since they are working, the couple is also allowed up
to a combined 120 days of paid leave per year to care for
sick children. Sweden sees many of these benefits as neces-
sary rights for everyone, regardless of income or social
status. They help to make sure that all of the children are
healthy and well educated.
Family Migration:
For people with partners and children, moving from one
country to another is never a simple task. Swedish law takes
this into account, making it possible for family members to
receive work and residence permits for the duration of your
stay. This opportunity so far is unique to Sweden.
