A better working life for trans people


This publication summarises the main messages from a conference on working life conditions for trans people, held in Stockholm on 23 October 2024. The conference was based on the knowledge review ‘Trans People’s Working Life Conditions in the Nordic Region’, published in spring 2024 by NIKK. The knowledge review compiles results from previous Nordic studies and provides an overall picture that shows that trans people face particular obstacles in their working lives. Prejudice and poor treatment affect recruitment processes as well as work environments and opportunities for career development, which has concrete impacts, not least on transgender people’s finances.  
 
The conference shared knowledge and experiences from research, policy, government agencies, trade unions, employers and civil society organisations.
