Explanation:
This is how a Finnish site handled this, they also have many hits for your Swe term, whatever that indicates... This can be varied to fit different preferences -- 'work life' vs working life, or hyphens, etc.
But the gist is something more, deeper than work-life balance and similar.

But I also have seen the term you mentioned 'well-being at work'.
