Looking Ahead with George S Benson on Sweden unions
In Stockholm this summer I had a delightful visit with Ife Gunnar Anderson, vice president of the Swedish Federation of Trade Unions. He explained how labor relations work, noting a 90 year heritage, a federation of 43 unions with 1.1 million members, and a government led by Social Democrats. He described arbitration preferences, a major 100,000 metal workers strike, and views on nationalization versus private enterprise.
