We’re Not a Company. We’re a Question.
Swedish Unemployment Hiring Index was born from something too obvious to ignore: Why do most companies only hire people who already have jobs?
We’re a small team in Sweden building a public metric that makes hiring visible. Not to shame. Not to judge. But to celebrate the companies with the guts to open doors — and to show others that the world outside their office is full of people worth betting on.
Hiring someone who’s been out of work isn’t charity. It’s strategy. Resilience, urgency, lived experience — these aren’t soft traits. They’re competitive edges.
People who’ve been overlooked don’t take opportunity for granted. They show up differently. They push teams further.
Hiring from unemployment isn’t risk.
The real risk is pretending they don’t exist.
If you’ve ever given someone a shot, you already understand what SUHI stands for. If you haven’t yet, we’re here to help you start.
