Our association is organized on three pillars: labor negotia- tions with collective bargaining, member service and political affairs.
In 2015 the numbers of individual members have increased to approximately 144 000, of which 25 percent are women.
By the end of 2015 we had little over 320 members who hold a Eur Ing title. The headquarters in Stockholm and local of ces in Malmoe and Gothenburg have about 140 individuals employed. Sveriges Ingenjörer is the only organization in Sweden that organizes individual graduate engineers as members. The organization is divided in regional districts together with a couple of sororities based on sectorial branches and networks for managers, women and so on. Sveriges Ingenjörer has also a student network.
The organization has consolidated around an overarching objective: “Swedish Engineers – we create a future sustainable society” – with a couple of visionary goals for 2014-2015 by which we should:
1. Be a leading actor of engineering topics in the society
2. Promote sustainability and development in the society.
3. We will secure best conditions for individual engineers.
4. Our educational system should produce world class
engineers.
