SOS Alarm

Partly state-owned company operating the emergency number 112 in Sweden

SOS Alarm Sverige AB is a Swedish publicly owned company that operates emergency number 112 in Sweden. The enterprise is owned equally by the Government of Sweden and the Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions. History. SOS Alarm has its origin in a state investigation regarding the rural telephone automation from 1944. There it was proposed that telephonists should remain at certain switchboard stations even if they were automated. The telephonists would then be able to connect subscribers to the doctor, police, fire brigade, and similar services. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOS_Alarm
