At midnight on Thursday, the deadline for mediation between the two parties in the information and communications technology agreement ends. If mediation is not successful, there will be a strike starting Thursday.
Abelia from NHO and employee organization El og It-forbundet from LO are negotiating an ICT agreement.
The agreement saw the light of day in 2010 and was later revised in several major settlements. It includes a total of 118 companies and 1,190 association members, including Komplett, Telia and Onitio.
If the two sides do not agree, 322 members will go on strike. It can be felt in many ways.
– If your Telia network goes out just before the round of 16 at the European Championships, it is conceivable that it will take longer to correct the errors, and that you will not reach customer service until after the referee has called off the match, he said. Union Secretary and Head of Negotiations at EL and IT Geir Asen before the start of the mediation.
The deadline for mediation is midnight Thursday. With four hours remaining until the deadline, the question arises whether the two sides will continue to work overtime.
Before the mediation, Asen stated that they aimed to reach a solution, but the negotiations showed that the distance was great.
Our demands relate to finance, skills development, and enhancing the rights of local union representatives. He said that if a strike was to be avoided, the other side would have to move much more than it had during the negotiations.
