Klarna will begin random drug testing of employees in Sweden as part of a broader initiative aimed at strengthening company security in preparation for an upcoming IPO.
The company's director of people and HR, Mikaela Mijatovic, emphasized that this move aligns with a larger strategy to enhance security measures across Klarna, indicating a proactive approach to employee safety.
CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski previously mentioned the necessity of implementing safeguards during an all-hands meeting, citing increased scrutiny from potentially threatening groups as a motivating factor.
Legal insights from attorney Nafsika Karavida highlighted that drug testing is generally acceptable in Sweden's private sector and has become increasingly prevalent in the fintech and banking sectors.
