Facts

The Swedish government has asked the Public Employment Service, the Work Environment Authority, the Economic Crime Authority, the Social Insurance Agency, the Gender Equality Agency, the Migration Board, the Police Authority, the Tax Agency and the Prosecution Authority to work together during 2022 and 2023 to fight work-related crime.

Big inspection

By coordinating their resources, the Norwegian Police, Labour Inspection Authority, customs, the Public Roads Administration and the Labour and Welfare Administration can carry out large inspections, like the one above. More than 5,000 cars and trucks were checked in a few hours, and 54 vehicles lost their licenses in one go.

"Inspecting heavy vehicles and professional drivers is meant to make roads safer and to get rid of the worst drivers who not only undermine Norwegian transport workers on price, but who are also a real danger in traffic," said head of the NTF trade union Lars M. Johnsen.
