Family members of labour migrants from third countries

This report is the fourth in a series of reports produced by Statistics Sweden (SCB) as part of the government assignment "Work in Sweden". The report focuses on accompanying family members (partners and children) of labour migrants from countries outside the EU/EEA, referred to as third countries. The statistics aim to provide other authorities involved in the government assignment, as well as other stakeholders, with a basis for decision-making.

The report highlights, among other things:

  • The proportion of labour migrants who come to Sweden with a partner or children, and how this varies across different groups of labour migrants
  • Partners of labour migrants who arrived in Sweden between 2020 and 2023 and their employment status
  • Children of labour migrants who arrived in Sweden between 2020 and 2023 and their participation in preschool, compulsory school, upper secondary school, and international schools in Sweden.
