Wellness

We want to contribute to good health and a healthy lifestyle among our employees. That's why we offer, among other things, two hours of wellness per employee per week, as well as a wellness allowance of 3,000 kronor per year that you can use on any form of exercise. We also have various ergonomic aids that you can borrow at the office, such as treadmills, pilates balls and standing boards. We also offer a loaner bike and the opportunity to get a massage at a very reasonable price. At Vinnova, we also have an active wellness association that organizes activities such as kayaking, board game evenings and paddle tournaments.

Hybrid and flexibility

We apply hybrid working, where our employees have the opportunity to combine work from home and in the office. At least half of the working time must be spent in our pleasant activity-based office at Mäster Samuelsgatan 56, which is located a few minutes' walk from Stockholm Central Station. With flexible working hours, we also give you the chance to plan your working hours yourself to create a good balance between work and leisure. You also have access to the technical aids needed to be able to work outside the office.

Beneficial parental leave

To make it easier for you to combine parenthood and working life, you have the option of shortening your working hours by up to 25% until the child is 12 years old. When you are on parental leave, we also top up the compensation you receive from the Swedish Social Insurance Agency. For each day of parental benefit on sickness benefit-eligible income, the so-called SGI level, Vinnova provides parental benefit supplements, so that you receive approximately 90% of your salary.

Pension agreement

As an employee at Vinnova, you are covered by the state pension agreement with occupational, survivor and disability pensions.

Insurance

If an injury occurs at work, you have workers' compensation insurance that provides compensation. You are also covered by a service group life insurance that provides financial protection for survivors. Special insurance is offered for those who are on a business trip or posted to an office abroad.

Vacation days

Vinnova has generous holiday conditions where the number of holiday days is determined by your age. For example, if you are over 30 years old, you have 31 holiday days, if you are 40 years old, you have 35 days. We also have a working hours agreement that includes days off, and as a new employee, you have the option of taking advance holiday during your first year of employment.

Compensation for medical and health care

Vinnova fully reimburses the costs of prescription drugs that are covered by high-cost coverage. Some parts of the costs for other health care are also reimbursed and our agreement entitles you to certain health care visits during paid working hours. You can get vaccinated free of charge against influenza and the tick-borne disease TBE through our occupational health care.

Social activities

In addition to the health club, we have a cultural club and a book club. We also welcome you to various staff activities such as breakfasts and Friday coffee. Twice a week we get fresh fruit.
