Did you know that Sweden isn't so liberal and accepting as you think?
Being a woman trying to get an employment can prove to be a difficult task since there still is some general contradictory beliefs especially among Swedish employees. A woman in her mid 20s or early 30ths might be very likely to start trying for a family.
But according to the Swedish law it is not allowed for Swedish employees to ask intimate and private questions;
you're not pregnant or anything?do you consider getting pregnant very soon?
Many employees asks this questions to applicants based on possible HR issues because everyone knows it would be more time consuming and more expensive to hire a pregant woman or a woman with future plans to build a family. There is a possibility for women that has experienced this in Sweden to seek retribution. Many do apply to the Discriminationsombudsman for economic compensation and more often than not women do get retribution. But often the sum isn't meeting the claim...
