C continues the fight for RUT – Ystad Allehanda

C continues the fight for RUT – Ystad Allehanda

Five years after the RUT deduction for household services were introduced, we can conclude that the reform is a success. In Skåne there are currently over 2,000 companies that perform the RUT services. Between 2009 and 2013, the number increased by more than 1 600 pieces.

New job and more leisure created, primarily for women. That is why I get so angry when some parties in Swedish politics choose to slander and spread myths about the RUT. Last Sunday when the Left Party Ali Esbati broadcast live on television called employees and contractors in the household of servants. The Centre Party we will not tolerate that one is left unchallenged with such nonsense. It did not our chief economist Martin Ådahl on TV then, nor do I now. Instead, I want to share with you some hard facts on the RUT. Last year, performed about 17 000 companies RUT work for the entire 538 000 buyers in Sweden. According to Statistics Sweden, it is common for older couples use RUT. 68 percent of the buyers had incomes below 32 000 per month. Of the 64,000 people employed in the industry is 64 percent women, 70 percent of the decisions to buy household services are also women who, thanks to the RUT can everyday to make ends meet and the opportunity to focus on career. RUT is thus a reform that is for everyone and has positive effects on entrepreneurship, employment and gender.

create new job both in Malmö in Lövestad and does not cost the state anything, because it is self-financing. The Centre Party, the first party a motion RUT in parliament already in 2003 In 2014, defends and we are still struggling for reform tooth and nail.
