At midnight, the news came that the Las negotiations had collapsed.
Instead, politicians are now expected to take over, risking a government crisis.
“Stefan Löfven cannot remain prime minister if he intends to present LAS’s research proposal,” Jonas Sjöstedt wrote on Twitter.
The hope of reaching a new agreement that regulates the rules of the game and the protection of employment in the labor market was dashed on Thursday night when the parties announced that the negotiations had been broken.
– We have come a long way, but we have not reached the end, explained Mattias Dahl, chief negotiator of the Swedish Business Confederation, to TT shortly after the announcement.
Instead, politicians are now expected to step in as part of the January 2019 deal, and now the government awaits urgent days.
Under the agreement between the government and cooperating parties C and L, the government’s research proposals on labor law will be implemented and become law in 2021.
Researcher Gudmund Toijer set January 1, 2022 as the start date.
Social Democratic ministers, led by the prime minister, have criticized the investigation’s proposal as being too employer-friendly, with which C or L disagrees and believes that the agreement applies.
Otherwise, they threaten to leave the January agreement with a government crisis just around the corner.

“The responsibility is of the government”
Early Thursday morning, Left Party leader Jonas Sjöstedt announced that the promise to file a no-confidence motion against the government if the Las investigation continues remains on the table.
“Stefan Löfven cannot remain Prime Minister if he intends to present the LAS Inquiry proposal that would destroy job security for all employees in Sweden. The Left Party claims that the parties have not been able to agree on labor legislation and job security. The responsibility for this rests with the government, which, with unreasonable threats to drastically affect job security, sided with the employers in the negotiations, ”says Sjöstedt.
Green Party spokesperson Per Bolund also commented on the evening’s message:
“If the parties were very close to agreeing, they should be given more time. The Green Party and I are ready to work for it. The Swedish model deserves another chance!” He writes on Twitter.
