- We were always too few staff, says Ludwig Hülphers about his time as a housing supporter at Humana's HVB home Platea in Hagfors.

Ludwig Hülpers started working at Platea in the autumn of 2019. Only nine months later he quit.

- There was too much pressure.

When I went to work I was constantly worried about how many of us will be on the unit and I felt that I could not perform my tasks well enough.

Points to organizational factors

Humana's business developer Ulrik Bonnevier claims that it is not the profits that are behind the problems that have existed in certain operations in the Group, but that they have to do with various organizational factors.

- That there are some employees who are not completely satisfied or not happy, that is.

But the vast majority of our employees and managers are very proud to work at Humana and to work to help people to a better life, says Ulrik Bonnevier who is a business developer within the Human Group.

High profit requirements

In the same year that Ludwig Hülphers left Platea, the HVB company delivered a full 39 percent profit to the owner group Humana.

And a review conducted by SVT Nyheter Värmland shows that it is not unusual for budgets to be budgeted from 20 percent and up to 40 percent in the Group's more than 50 HVB operations.

- It is scary that you can make such big gains on the suffering of others, says Ludwig Hülphers.

Humana's business developer Ulrik Bonnevier says, however, that he is not aware that it is budgeted for profits of around 40 percent and states that the average profit for the Group's HVB companies is between seven and nine percent.

- We always look at the reasonableness of the budgets and some may be higher than that.

But then the operations have been around for a long time, routines, risk assessments and work are very true.

If you also succeed in parrying the risk situations that exist in this type of business in combination with high demand from the municipalities, the result can be higher, says Ulrik Bonnevier.
