"Ework has had a positive start to 2022 with yet another record quarter. The market is strong and we had for the first time over 12,000 consultants on assignment. Net sales increased by 24 percent and what is especially pleasing is that EBIT amounted to SEK 47 M, an increase by 71 percent. The increased profitability shows increased cost efficiency, scalability and a higher added value of our services."
