In a June 2021 conversation with Stefan Attefall of the Byggmarknadskommissionen, Göransson discussed the evolution of illegal work in the Swedish construction industry. He stated that while undeclared work has long existed in the sector, it has shifted from being primarily conducted by Swedish carpenters as a side activity 20–30 years ago to a more industrial-scale operation involving many actors, both Swedish and foreign, in a more complex environment. Göransson also said that society has not yet held a discussion about what the social contract means in modern Sweden, describing it as a moral question about whether citizens want a society with cheating or with order. He characterized this as a societal issue that extends beyond individual companies.
