Nomination Committee

The main duty of the Nomination Committee is to propose Board Members, the Chairman of the Board and auditors, as well as their fees, so that the AGM can make informed decisions. 

Ework’s Nomination Committee is appointed by its three largest shareholders. In a departure from the Swedish Code of Corporate Governance’s rules 2.3 and 2.4, two Nomination Committee members, i.e. a majority, are Board Members, and one Board Member has also served as Chairman of the Nomination Committee, while both these members are non-independent of the Company’s major shareholders. The justification for this is that Ework is a high-growth Company whose success is based on a strong entrepreneurial commitment from its founders and principal owners.

A Nomination Committee has been appointed in accordance with this, with the following members:

  • Magnus Berglind, Chairman with own holding and holding via endowment policy

  • Staffan Salén, appointed by Investment AB Arawak

  • Dag Marius Nereng, appointed by Protector Forsikring ASA

Remuneration Committee

The Remuneration Committee members are Staffan Salén, Magnus Berglind and Frida Westerberg, and it is responsible for consulting on the Board’s proposal to the AGM on guidelines for remunerating the CEO and other senior managers. The CHRO reports to the Committee, but does not participate on matters relating to the role of the CHRO.

The Remuneration Committee’s duties include:

  • consulting on and evaluating guidelines for remunerating executive management

  • consulting on and evaluating the objectives and principles governing variable remuneration

  • consulting on and evaluating Ework’s incentive programs

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee members are Staffan Salén, Magnus Berglind and Erik Åfors, and it held two meetings during 2022. The main duty of the Audit Committee is to monitor the processes for preparing Ework’s financial reporting and internal controls to ensure the quality of external reporting.

The Audit Committee’s duties include:

  • preparing and quality assure financial statements
