Simply by starting school, it announced a sharp escalation in the teacher’s strike. This can create problems for thousands of parents, who may end up in a situation where the kids have no place to be while they are at work.
Working Environment Act gives no rights to parents affected by school strike.
– If one of our children’s schools are going on strike, we do like everyone else and try to resolve it as best. We are no better or worse off than others, says Bjarne Olsvold Mohn, head of the Union of Education in Bergen bt.no.
“A good number of inquiries”
– The call someone each year and asks how this is. We get a good number of inquiries when there is a strike, says Svein Oppegaard, director of employment in the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise (NHO).
It is not valid for absence that children can not go to school, but experience suggests that both employers and employees show great flexibility.
– The simple principle is that you must find deals locally. There are no valid reasons for absence that children can not go to school, but experience suggests that both employers and employees show great flexibility. It is possible to use vacation and time off, and some parents parts to fit children, says Oppegaard.
He calms parents who may be concerned.
– All employers need the labor they have employed. This means that you will have to find solutions.
Special arrangements
Valentine Eidsvaag, associate professor of law at the University of Bergen, says the same as Oppegaard, but adds that public sector employees may can find another way.
– There are no legal provisions that indicates that this might lead to paid leave, and you have no right to take the kids to work. While it may be that there are general provisions on the welfare of the public that can be used.
The debate over whether open office is good or bad is has been a hot potato for years. According to DNB may, if anything, be an advantage in the coming weeks.– If the strike escalates, we look at how we can castling staffing and possibly hire temporary staff where necessary. In addition, we have an advantage that we have “free seating” and “clean desk policy”. It makes people really can work from anywhere, even at home, says communication Vidar Korsberg Dalsbø.
– Contact Manager
group’s press officer, Knut Rostad says that each employee must deal with their manager and find arrangements that are “practicable”.
It is also the mantra in Helse Bergen, which has over 11,500 employees. There are preparations underway.
– We will post a notice on our intranet this week, asking employees who are affected by a strike to consult with their manager, so that they community can find practical arrangements. It may be to use vacation days you have yet, leave without pay, the switch schedules colleagues or else, says Trond Søreide, personnel and organizational director for bt.no.
He asks people to be flexible, so that the operation of the hospital will not be affected.
– We do not know how many employees may be affected, and we know not what strikes withdrawal being done in the community. It will probably be difficult, but all experience shows that this is going to go well.
