History


This Medal is conferred upon individuals who have rendered long service to the same employer or rendered long service to a family.

The obverse design of the medal consists of the portrait of the reining monarch, and in Swedish around his head, his name and title; because of this there is many variations of this medal.

The reverse design of the medal is very similar to the Royal Pro Patria Medal for Civic Merit (See Medals & Decorations SWE*** for more information) although the two medals vary in inscription that is encircled by a laurel wreath.

When conferred upon women, this Medal is worn on a bow ribbon.

The 2nd Size Gold Medal is conferred upon individuals who have rendered at least 15 years of service.
