Our PEO services in Sweden
Hiring and managing employees in Sweden requires a strong understanding of local employment law, payroll, employer reporting, and HR administration. For companies that already have, or plan to establish, a legal entity in Sweden, a PEO solution can be an efficient way to manage ongoing employer administration without building a full in-house HR and payroll function from day one.
How does PEO work in Sweden?
PEO stands for Professional Employer Organization. In a PEO setup, your company has the local legal entity, while BTR supports you with payroll, HR administration, employer compliance, and day-to-day employment processes. You retain full operational control over your employees and their daily work, while we help manage the practical and administrative side of being an employer in Sweden.
A PEO solution in Sweden may include:
- Support with employment agreements in line with Swedish employment law
- Payroll processing and employer reporting
- Reporting to relevant authorities
- Support with pensions, insurance, and other employer-related matters
- HR support for onboarding, changes during employment, and ongoing personnel administration
- Guidance on annual leave, sick leave, and other local employment rules
A PEO solution helps you create a compliant and efficient employer structure in Sweden while keeping control of your local operations. PEO is commonly used where the client company has its own entity and the provider supports payroll, HR, benefits, and compliance under a co-employment model rather than acting as the legal employer.
Why is Sweden complex from an employer perspective?
Sweden has a well-structured but highly regulated employment environment. Employers need to manage local employment law, payroll, employer contributions, reporting obligations, annual leave rules, and in many cases collective bargaining agreement considerations.
For international companies, the challenge is often not only understanding the rules, but applying them correctly in practice. If HR, payroll, and employer administration are not handled in a coordinated way, it can result in errors, delays, unnecessary risk, and increased administration.

- Have a Swedish entity and want to outsource parts of your HR and employer administration
