Are you the one? Elderly care in Umeå municipality wants to be a resource that frees and strengthens people's ability to live an independent life in proximity and interaction.

The HR unit's tasks include initiating development and improvement work and carrying out training initiatives in order for the business to achieve a long-term sustainable work environment.
