According to a program I saw about 20 years ago, Swedish employees are hired for life. The program focused on the problems of youth who can't find jobs because they are all taken, regardless of whether or not the hired employee ever shows up at the office. Perhaps the situation has changed since then. However, no country can guarantee "jobs for everybody" ... or it risks having to then provide the jobs "everybody" wants.
I have just read a blog post by a Kiwi living in Sweden. The New Zealander's post reveals that it is still as bad as the programme you watched over 20 years ago:
French letter (reflections on Sweden "model")
Basically many people earn their livings as contractors, if they get lucky they can strike a fulltime job. Being a contarctor often means severe credit disadvantage and curiously tnough, they don't qualify for much welfare payments under Swedish laws, believe it or not.
