Over 1.700 employees, in the course of the week be laid off as a result of oljestreiken, informs the Rederiforbundet.
Wednesday was 350 employees in Baker Hughes, Schlumberger and Halliburton laid off, something which, according to the Norwegian oil and gas is a result of the strike which started 21. september.
Rederiforbundet states that the seven rigs are taken out of operation since the strike started, and that the ten rigs will be out of operation during the week. Then you will have more than 1,700 employees will be laid off.
the Strike comes at the worst possible time in an already demanding market with low rates and many rigs in circulation, says executive vice president Pål Tangen in Rederiforbundet.
He says riggselskapene is not a party to the conflict, but that they suffer considerably as innocent third parties.
This can have long-term consequences for the riggnæring, both for companies and employees. We add to the reason that the parties have this responsibility conscious, ” says Tangen.
Disguised industrial action
head of division Ommund above it are the components in the Industries of Energy, which organizes employees in the oil and gas industry, is not happy with the situation. He believes the other party of the Norwegian oil and gas uses permitteringer as industrial action, writes Stavanger Aftenblad.
Our opinion is that more than necessary is laid off, and that permitteringer now used as a poorly veiled industrial action. It had been neater with a lockout. Many apprentices laid off, says above it are the components.
the Norwegian oil and gas answer that if the union believes there is something wrong with permitteringsuttaket, they should take it up with the management of the individual business. The refutes that apprentices are affected.
Neither Baker Hughes, Halliburton, Schlumberger, Oceaneering, or Oceaneering Asset Integrity has laid off apprentices as a result of the strike, says managing director Øyvind Knoph Askeland in the Norwegian oil and gas to the NTB.
– great pity

They point out that they offered the opposing party members on the oljeserviceavtalen an increase in her salary at the level of the frontfaget.
the company has already economically challenging. We think it is very regrettable that the businesses and employees end up in a situation that jobs be put at risk, said forhandlingsleder Jan Hodneland Wednesday.
