Ministry of Defence Sweden Sweden – From Conscription to All Voluntary Forces Vienna

Ministry of Defence Sweden Government Bill “A Usable Defence” (2009) The Armed Forces of today are not deployable here and now Only 1 out of 3 units can be deployed within 1 year A distinction is made between national units and units for international missions Units for international missions form no part of the national organisation, and are dissolved after the mission is completed The system for providing military personnel was designed for the Cold War scenarios – not for the tasks of today

Ministry of Defence Sweden Aims for the defence policy All units should be available and usable “here and now” (maximum of one week for national operations, six months for international operations) All units should be deployable for both national and international operations All units become either standing units and reserve units. Reservists will form majority of soldiers in the Army. Units should be modular and possible to combine to manage different tasks in different levels of conflict

Ministry of Defence Sweden Changes in legislation regarding conscription from 1 July 2010 Obligation to complete military or civilian service will only applied by decision of the government When activated, the obligation should also apply to women Conscripts – men and women – will still have an obligation to participate in an annual survey to determine theirs suitability for service. If needed – they can be called up for service.

Ministry of Defence Sweden New system for voluntary basic training A new voluntary three-month basic military training will be fully implemented 2012 Recruits receive a monthly tax-free compensation After basic training, recruits can be employed as soldiers/seamen or reservists. Other options: Home Guard or Officers’ training
