1 INTRODUCTION In 2019, a client service agent at the Swedish Public Employment Services offered a job seeker an internship in exchange for sex. An internal investigation led to the dismissal of the agent for sexual harassment. The agent's trade union proceeded to sue the employer, the Public Employment Services, in the Labor Court, arguing that the agent had been wrongfully dismissed since he only wanted to have a relationship with the job seeker (The Swedish Labour Court, 2021).
