  • Spotify moves Swedish jobs abroad

    Spotify announces that it is moving services abroad, following a court ruling that denies the company to have night-time standby in Sweden.

    “The Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s decision to deny us exemption for scheduled standby between midnight and 05.00 has meant that we have moved parts of 250 positions to other countries, and future recruitment of engineers will unfortunately mainly take place outside Sweden,” writes Spotify’s HR manager Katarina Berg in a debate article in Dagens industri.

    Spotify was denied exemption from night work for 250 people, first in the administrative court and this week also in the court of appeals. Among other things, the company wanted an exemption to “maintain the operation of the company’s services and protect the large amount of personal data that the company has”.

    In addition to the court, the Work Environment Agency has also recently said no to night work.

    Spotify is critical of the decision, which they see as an example of “outdated bureaucracy”.

    “In a broader perspective, the current regulatory framework prevents companies in Sweden from growing and reaching their full potential on the global market, which directly slows down Sweden’s growth,” writes Katarina Berg.

  • Six North Korean officers killed in Ukrainian attack

    On Thursday, Ukraine struck an area near the Russian-controlled area of ​​Donetsk. More than 20 soldiers were killed in the missile attack. Among the dead were six North Korean officers who were there to meet Russian colleagues, the Kyiv Post writes.

    Three other North Korean soldiers were also injured in the attack.

    Recently, cooperation between North Korea and Russia has expanded, according to the newspaper. Last year, Ukrainian intelligence agencies reported that a group of military personnel and engineers from North Korea were in occupied areas of Ukraine. According to other Ukrainian government reports, Russia has also planned to bring in North Korean construction workers to Donetsk and Luhansk, as there has been a labor shortage in Russia due to the war.
