“På Scandic tror vi på kraften i mångfald och inkludering. Genom att vara en del av Opportunity Day vill vi fortsätta skapa möjligheter där alla känner sig välkomna – precis som på våra hotell!”
Kristian Sandahl, Hotelldirektör Scandic Rubinen

At Knowit, we have for many years carried out equality work, which has led to our being a significantly more equal and inclusive workplace in terms of gender. We are still proud of the results we have managed to achieve, which were particularly noticed when we received the award "the stock exchange's most equal company" in 2019. Today, the focus is on taking the next step and also ensuring greater diversity linked to ethnicity, background, age, etc. We are sure that in this way we both create better solutions for our customers and contribute to a better society in general. Today, we support several initiatives that work with these issues and are happy to contribute to Opportunity Day's work."

Despite the economic situation, there are still many companies that want to recruit. It is an insane waste of resources that we then have competent people in Sweden who do not enter the labor market or do not work with the skills they have. We need to create occasions where these worlds can meet.
Rudolph Anthony, Rregional manager, Swedish Business Administration

"We are very excited about the opportunity to work with Opportunity Day and find new colleagues who want to join us in creating a safer world! We strongly believe that diversity and inclusion contribute to innovation, employee well-being and better decision-making. By having a diversity that reflects society, we can succeed in creating a safer world. With the help of Opportunity Day, we can further broaden our recruitment pool and reach more unique and competent employees who all add value to us and our customers."
Cristina Petrescu, CEO Securitas Sweden
