regularly monitored. Test results and forecasts translate directly into the education system in this country, which is largely a state system. Sweden is one of the first countries in Europe that has used active labor market policies. It is realized that there is an active unemployment which includes a wide range of activities that can be divided into three groups: Active forms of influencing the creation of new jobs, active forms that affect the labor supply and active forms for people with disabilities. Most of the funding is allocated there for subsidized employment and training. Research conducted in Sweden shows that active forms of counteracting unemployment focused on the long-term unemployed can significantly raise the level of employment in this group.</p> <iframe src="https://publications.waset.org/10007331.pdf" style="width:100%; height:400px;" frameborder="0"></iframe> <p class="card-text"><strong>Keywords:</strong> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=Sweden" title="Sweden">Sweden</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=research%20conducted%20in%20Sweden" title=" research conducted in Sweden"> research conducted in Sweden</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=labour%20market" title=" labour market"> labour market</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=labour%20market%20policies" title=" labour market policies"> labour market policies</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=unemployment" title=" unemployment"> unemployment</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=active%20forms%20of%20influencing%20the%20creation%20of%20new%20jobs" title=" active forms of influencing the creation of new jobs"> active forms of influencing the creation of new jobs</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=active%20forms%20of%20counteracting%20unemployment" title=" active forms of counteracting unemployment"> active forms of counteracting unemployment</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=employment" title=" employment"> employment</a>, <a href="https://publications.waset.org/search?q=subsidized%20employment%20education." title=" subsidized employment education."> subsidized employment education.</a> </p> <p class="card-text"><strong>Digital Object Identifier (DOI):</strong> <a href="https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1131035" target="_blank">doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.1131035</a> </p> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/combating-and-preventing-unemployment-in-sweden" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Procedia</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/apa" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">APA</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/bibtex" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">BibTeX</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/chicago" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Chicago</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/endnote" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">EndNote</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/harvard" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">Harvard</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/json" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">JSON</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/mla" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">MLA</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/ris" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">RIS</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/xml" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">XML</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331/iso690" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">ISO 690</a> <a href="https://publications.waset.org/10007331.pdf" target="_blank" class="btn btn-primary btn-sm">PDF</a> <span class="bg-info text-light px-1 py-1 float-right rounded"> Downloads <span class="badge badge-light">960</span> </span> <p class="card-text"><strong>References:</strong></p> <br>[1] Adda J., Dias C.
