Members of Parliament (Swedish: riksdagsledamöter, singular: riksdagsledamot) in Sweden sit in the Riksdag.
The former is in more common use today, especially in official contexts, due to its status as a unisex word, while the latter was used more often historically and literally refers to a male MP exclusively.
To become an MP, a person must be entitled to vote (i.e. be a Swedish citizen, be at least 18 years old and be or have been resident in Sweden) and must be nominated by a political party.
[3] According to a survey investigation by sociologist Jenny Hansson,[4] Swedish national parliamentarians have an average workweek of 66 hours, including side responsibilities.
Hansson's investigation further reports that the average Swedish national parliamentarian sleeps 6.5 hours per night.
