| Tiivistelmä: | This paper discusses "workplace equality audits", imposed by Swedish authorities in 2001, in which it is possible to ascertain, remedy and prevent unwarranted wage differentials and other unfair employment terms between men and women. It is shown that the introduction of this new legislation in the long run might change the Swedish industrial relations system as well as the predonditions for many companies' human resource management policies. Many employers find any interference threatening and trade unions have not realized the potentialities of the system from an employee perspective, potentialities connected to the fact that companies are now more or less forced to make transparent their wage policies at large. |
