Social Sustainability & Sustainability Reporting
As an employer, you have a unique opportunity to combine business benefits with social sustainability by participating in Jobbsprånget.
Participating in Jobbsprånget as an employer means that you take an active step towards promoting social sustainability. By opening the door to foreign-born academics, you contribute to increasing equality and fostering diversity within your organization, while also strengthening your competence supply. A win-win-win for society, employers, and individuals.
How you Contribute to Social Sustainability
As an employer, you contribute to social sustainability in several ways by participating in Jobbsprånget:
- Promotes Diversity – Increases the representation of different cultural perspectives in the workplace.
- Strengthens Inclusion – Offers foreign-born academics a chance to integrate into the job market and contributes to a more inclusive society.
- Enhances Equality – Creates equal opportunities for everyone, regardless of gender or background, to enter the job market and demonstrate their skills.
- Contributes to Competence Supply – Include the talents of highly qualified professionals and helps to counteract “brain waste” in Sweden.
Strengthen your efforts with Agenda 2030
Jobbsprånget directly contributes to the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals. By participating in the program, you can demonstrate that your organization is actively working towards several of the goals in Agenda 2030, such as increased employment and reduced inequality.
A Part of your Sustainability Reporting According to CSRD
The new requirements in the CSRD directive impose higher demands on companies to report their social sustainability efforts, focusing on areas such as diversity, inclusion, and working conditions. By participating in Jobbsprånget, you can integrate these aspects directly into your operations and use the program as an important part of your sustainability reporting.
“Participating in the Jobbsprånget program is a valuable opportunity for our company. It not only increases diversity within our teams, but it also brings fresh perspectives and innovative ideas from highly motivated and curious professionals. These internships allow us to tap into a pool of global talent, enriching our work environment. Moreover, it strengthens our commitment to social responsibility by supporting the integration of skilled newcomers into the Swedish job market, fostering a more inclusive society”
