For those who work in the public sector and require information about jobseekers

We disclose information about registered jobseekers that is needed for other public sector processing. We do this after your request has been submitted and reviewed for confidentiality. If you have access rights, you can retrieve a lot of information digitally and receive a response immediately. If the information you need is not available digitally, you can submit a request using a form instead.

Good to know before requesting information

We prefer that you to request information by submitting a form. However, in some matters you will need to call us instead.

In some matters, you will need to call us instead of using the form. This applies, for example, to matters concerning persons with protected identity, when you are investigating a child's need for protection, or if the matter concerns national security.

You can also get help with other issues by telephone. For example, you can contact us when you are handling a social assistance case and need to discuss possible efforts for the jobseeker.

In order for Arbetsförmedlingen to be able to send an assignment regarding a vacancy, update the action plan, or decide on support, the jobseeker must participate in the meeting and take part in the planning.

Planning takes place in consultation with an employment officer, and the jobseeker chooses whether they want to have a representative from another public sector present. In these matters, the jobseeker calls 0771-416 416 together with their representative.

How to request information about registered jobseekers

Request information digitally

If you handle social assistance cases, you can retrieve information about jobseekers via the SSBTEK system support and the AFLI service.

Retrieve information from AFLI (In Swedish)

If you work at an unemployment insurance fund, you can use the ‘Ask AF’ function in your own organisation. You will then receive a response directly in your system support.

Request information using our forms

Use our forms when requesting personal data or documents. Matters are handled in order of priority, and you will usually receive a response within four working days. The response will be sent to your organisation's official postal address and addressed to you as the person who made the request.

If the jobseeker has protected identity, do not use our forms. Instead, contact us by telephone.
