The performance of the Swedish labour market is generally very good. However, the labour market does not function well for young people without upper-secondary education, for those with non-EU migrant background or for the low-skilled in general. The main elements likely to contribute to low labour market integration of these groups are: a lack of work-based learning, the design of upper-secondary education, strong duality in employment protection legislation, and the generous system of student support. These factors appear to be detrimental to low-skilled people who are prone to being trapped in temporary jobs or recurring periods of unemployment, hindering their permanent establishment in the labour market.
