In 2014 we actually succeeded in putting bullying and the psychological work environment on the agenda. A survey that the organization Fegin carried out for the Civil Servants’ Association revealed that bullying is at least as big a problem in the Faroe Islands as it has turned out to be elsewhere.

The Civil Servants' Association is among those who have raised the question of whether there is a need for such a system that ensures public employees can report possible legal violations and irregularities in the workplace without fearing professional consequences.

The Seafarers’ Union and Strandferðslan reached an agreement in August last year about the rest periods for the crews on Smyril who are members of the Seafarers’ Union. This concerns deckhands, cooks and catering staff.
