In Sweden, in fact, everyone between the ages of 16 and 70 has an obligation to contribute in the event of a war situation.

And according to the so-called total defense obligation, it can be done in three different ways.

Either through a military conscription, or through a civilian duty that the government decides on.

The last alternative is through a general duty, where you can be placed in a job that is considered extra important during a crisis or war situation.
