Sweden's best health index for the second year running

Vinnova has once again taken home first place in the Health Index in the Key Figures Institute's annual employer survey. The Health Index is based on a quantitative survey of the organisation's health and work environment work. The index measures, among other things, health rates, rehabilitation results, wellness care and systematic work environment work.

Best in the industry for attractive working conditions

At the same time, Vinnova has the highest results in Attraktiv Arbetsgivarindex within the industry of government organisations and authorities. Attraktiv Arbetsgivarindex is a quantitative survey of working conditions, work environment and development opportunities. The index is based on key figures linked to working conditions, such as secure employment conditions, staff turnover, manager density, skills development and sick leave.

– We are very proud of the awards. For us, it is about creating a sustainable workplace where people can develop, contribute and feel good over time. We regularly follow up and analyze working conditions. This is an important prerequisite for being able to work long-term with innovation and societal transformation. Good working conditions are also crucial for attracting and retaining the skills needed to meet the challenges of the future, says Havva Ilhan, HR Manager at Vinnova.

The results were presented under Stora Nyckeltalsdagen on April 24, 2026.
