The article is added in your reading list.

Wednesday at 14:00 it’s time for political big strike against the government’s proposed changes to the Working Environment Act.

The heads of the three main organizations LO, Unio and YS believes the proposal is far more than just a softening. On the sidelines standing NHO Director Kristin Skogen Lund and shakes his head. Wednesday morning she calls it all “an overreaction.”

– They have overplayed very up what this is about. I think there has been much scaremongering, she says to DN.



Rejects criticism

NHO Director saving no gunpowder, when she accuses unions to engage in “direct misinformation.”

– On the web they write for example that work can now impose working without payment. There are a total failure. To mislead so, I think is pretty rough, says Skogen Lund.

LO deputy Tor-Arne Solbakken is quick to dismiss the criticism.

– Skogen Lund fail to take us on something, he says to DN and refers to the allegations of overtime payment:

– This is clearly in section averaging of working: Maximum normal working hours per day in an individual agreement can be increased from nine to ten hours. Normal working hours, you get overtime payment, and indivduell agreement is very often synonymous with orders from the boss, claims Solbakken.



Strong instrument

NHO has long fought for the softening of the Working Environment Act . To increase the average working hours per day and increased access to use temporary employment, has been among the main requirements.

“Of all the proposals for changes in working hours regulations, only the extended limits for overtime where the employer gets a live session management rights, “writes NHO on its website Wednesday.

Skogen Lund recalls that there is a dramatic instrument that opponents now uses.

– We can not meet omstillingssbehov this way , she says and adds:

– I also think that it is unreasonable to befall so many innocent people. It is inevitable when the scope of action is great, she said.

Skogen Lund believes it is not correct that the mood of the population is as negative as it is produced. NHO own surveys show that a large majority of the population believe flexible working will be a benefit for the employees. Meanwhile, she must recognize that the vision of temporary employment is more divided.

– But here too there is a slight predominance is, says Skogen Lund.

– It is not correct how prepared – neither facts or where negative changes perceived, she claims.

– Greater understanding

Solbakken believes his side that they have broad support in the population. Along with YS and Unio LO and Solbakken jellyfish its 1.5 million members to volunteer strike between the hours of 14 and 16 today.

– I think there is also great understanding among those that are not wage earners per today about that you should defend workplace we have and the Working Environment Act we have, he said.

– Do you not fear that the current strike will cause a lot of irritation among people?

– Most affected are also workers and salaried employees, so you can not break this up into cubicles in this way, he replies.
