In addition to teaching, the representatives also got to try themselves in role-playing and group work. | BLARK_translated | Umframt undirvísing sluppu álitisfólkini eisini at royna seg í rolluspølum og bólkaarbeiði. |
The basic course for new representatives is in two parts. It was the first part that was held this spring. The second part will be in the autumn. | BLARK_translated | Grundskeiðið fyri nýggj álitisfólk er í tveimum pørtum. Tað var fyrri parturin, sum varð hildin nú í vár. Seinni partur verður í heyst. |
The board has decided to reassess the media policy. It has been decided to review whether the newspaper publication should continue as before, or whether the media policy should be reorganized so that dissemination via the website is given higher priority. | BLARK_translated | Nevndin hevur avgjørt at eftirmeta miðlapolitikkin. Avgjørt er at eftirkanna, um blaðútgávan skal halda áfram sum higartil. Ella um miðlapolitikkurin skal umleggjast, so at miðlingin gjøgnum heimasíðuna skal raðfestast hægri. |
In this connection the association had invited Øssur Winthereig, a journalist from Press, to talk about various possibilities that exist if it is decided to change the association's media strategy. | BLARK_translated | Í hesum sambandi hevði felagið fingið Øssur Winthereig, journalist frá Press at greiða frá ymsum møguleikum, ið finnast, um avgjørt verður at broyta miðlastrategiina hjá felagnum. |
The union representatives also had the opportunity to give their opinion on the work of organizing professional groups in the Staff Association. | BLARK_translated | Álitisfólkini fingu eisini høvi at siga sína hugsan um arbeiðið at skipa fakbólkar í Starvsmannafelagnum. |
The union/association is large and broad. That can be an advantage, but the problem is that the various professional groups disappear within the large main organization. | BLARK_translated | Felagið er stórt og breitt. Tað kann vera ein fyrimunur, men vandamálið er, at ymsu fakbólkarnir hvørva í tí stóra meginfelagnum. |
Therefore it has been attempted to organize the association into subgroups, but it has proven difficult to get the professional groups organized and to function. | BLARK_translated | Tískil hevur verið roynt at skipa felagið í undirbólkar, men hevur tað víst seg at vera trupult at fáa fakbólkarnar skipaðar og at virka. |
At the meeting a report was given on the construction work in the association so far. Afterwards there was group work, during which the representatives among other things discussed other options for organizing the association, with the aim of getting the ordinary members to take part in the association's work and make ... | BLARK_translated | Á fundinum varð greitt frá bygnaðararbeiðinum í felagnum higartil. Síðani varð bólkaarbeiði, har álitisfólkini m.a. kjakaðust um aðrar møguleikar at skipa felagið, við tí fyri eyga at fáa vanligu limirnar at taka lut í felagsarbeiðinum og gera teir sjónligari í felagsarbeiðinum. |
The question of setting up member counseling after normal working hours was also discussed. | BLARK_translated | Spurningurin um at seta á stovna limaráðgeving eftir vanliga arbeiðstíð var eisini umrøddur. |
Páll Nielsen, lawyer, reported on his experiences providing professional advice to the unions in the Faroe Islands’ Labour Association and to Samtak. | BLARK_translated | Páll Nielsen, advokatur, greiddi frá sínum royndum at veita fakliga ráðgeving fyri feløgini í Føroya Arbeiðarafelag og fyri Samtak. |
Afterwards the trusted persons answered a questionnaire, which among other things asked what they think of such peer counseling and what kind of peer counseling they would prefer to have. | BLARK_translated | Aftaná svaraðu álitisfólkini einum spurnablaði, har ma. spurt varð um hvat tey halda um slíka limaráðgeving og hvat slag av limaráðgeving, tey helst vilja hava. |
The newly appointed advisor in the Trade Union Cooperation – which is a collaboration between six trade unions – described his work. | BLARK_translated | Nýsetti ráðgevin í Fakfelagssamstarvinum – sum er eitt samstarv millum seks fakfeløg – greiddi frá sínum starvi. |
Anna A. Andresen spoke about her work as a psychologist at the Labour Inspectorate, and Anly S. Joensen, a lawyer, spoke about her main thesis on an early warning system in public administration in the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Anna A. Andresen greiddi frá sínum starvi sum sálarfrøðingur á Arbeiðseftirlitinum, og Anly S. Joensen, løgfrøðingur, greiddi frá høvuðsritgerð síni um eina varskógvaraskipan í almennu fyrisitingini í Føroyum. |
Dánjal Højgaard from the Staff Association also explained what the situation is when a position changes and what shop stewards should be provided with in training when organizational changes occur or work procedures are altered. | BLARK_translated | Eisini greiddi Dánjal Højgaard frá Starvsmannafelagnum frá, hvør støðan er, tá ið starvið broytist og hvat álitisfólkini skulu hava í mentu, tá ið bygnaðarbroytingar henda ella arbeiðsgongdir verða broyttar. |
That the trade unions have made an agreement to purchase LÍV does not mean that the trade unions will now run the business. It is not our task to operate a business and it is unlikely to be in the future either. | BLARK_translated | At fakfeløgini hava gjørt avtalu um keyp av LÍV merkir ikki, at fakfeløgini nú fara at reka forrætning. Tað er ikki okkara uppgáva at dríva forrætning og tað fer tað neyvan heldur at vera í framtíðini. |
P/F Fakfelag consists of 17 trade unions that have joined together in a cooperation with the single purpose of buying the insurance company LÍV. | BLARK_translated | P/F Fakfelag eru 17 fakfeløg, sum hava tikið seg saman í eitt samstarv við tí eina endamálinum: at keypa tryggingarfelagið LÍV. |

Poula Michelsen Kass has been appointed to a permanent position at the Trade Union Cooperation to coordinate the activities of six trade unions. | BLARK_translated | Poula Michelsen Kass er sett í fast starv hjá Fakfelagssamstarvinum at samskipa virksemið hjá seks fakfeløgum. |
Poula says that the truth is that the administrations in the associations in the cooperation are relatively small. Therefore there is a need for greater cooperation in various areas on practical tasks, so double work can be avoided and the workforce can be utilized as best as possible. For example in communication with... | BLARK_translated | Poula sigur, at sannroynd er, at umsitingarnar í feløgunum í samstarvinum eru lutfalsliga smáar. Tí ræður um størri samstarv á ymiskum økjum um praktiskar uppgávur, so sleppast kann undan dupultarbeiði og á tann hátt gagnnýta arbeiðsmegina sum best. Eitt nú í samskifti við myndugleikarnar og annað av felags áhuga. Somu... |

Twice she was informed that the widow’s pension she received after her husband would have to be deducted from the unemployment benefit. But she would not accept that, and now the Parliamentary Ombudsman has ruled in her favor. The pension must not be offset and this must now be established in the law. | BLARK_translated | Tvær ferðir fekk hon at vita, at einkjupensiónin, sum hon fekk eftir mann sín, skuldi dragast frá í arbeiðsloysisstuðlinum. Men tað vildi hon ikki góðtaka, og nú hevur Løgtingsins Umboðsmaður givið henni rætt. Pensjónin skal ikki mótroknast og nú skal tað staðfestast í lógini. |
65-year-old Eyðbjørg Nilsson from Tórshavn is not a woman who takes no for an answer. | BLARK_translated | 65 ára gamla Eyðbjørg Nilsson úr Havn er ikki ein kona, sum tekur eitt nei fyri eitt nei. |
For about two years she fought against the bureaucracy, because she believed that the unemployment office had wrongly deducted the widow's pension she received after her husband from the unemployment benefit. | BLARK_translated | Í umleið tvey ár stríddist hon móti pappírveldinum, tí hon metti, at ALS av órøttum mótroknaði einkjupensjónina, hon fekk eftir mann sín í arbeiðsloysisstuðlinum. |
This winter she finally received the words from the Parliamentary Ombudsman that she had indeed been right. | BLARK_translated | Í vetur fekk hon loksins orðini hjá Løgtingsins Umboðsmanni fyri, at hon hevði rætt kortini. |
I have always done my duty, and now I only demand my right, says Eyðbjørg Nilsson. | BLARK_translated | Eg havi altíð gjørt mína skyldu, og nú kravdi eg bert mín rætt, sigur Eyðbjørg Nilsson. |
When I read the law, I didn't think it was that complicated, because the law didn't explicitly say that the pension of the spouse should be offset. In my view, it wasn't that complicated. | BLARK_translated | Tá eg las lógina, helt eg hetta ikki vera so fløkt, tí lógin segði ikki beinleiðis, at pensjónin eftir hjúnafelagan skuldi mótroknast. Í mínum eygum var hetta ikki so fløkt. |
The past few years have not been a bed of roses for Eyðbjørg Nilsson. | BLARK_translated | Seinastu árini hava ikki verið nakar dansur á rósum hjá Eyðbjørg Nilsson. |
In 2012 the man died, and afterwards she received a survivor’s pension for a spouse of about 7,000 kroner per month. | BLARK_translated | Í 2012 doyði maðurin, og eftir hann fekk hon eina hjúnafelagaeftirløn á góðar 7.000 krónur um mánaðin. |
that the position she had held in the Ministry of Trade was abolished. | BLARK_translated | at starvið, sum hon hevði havt í Vinnumálaráðnum, varð niðurlagt. |
Eyðbjørg was forced into early retirement (ALS), but grew angry when she saw that the spouse’s pension was deducted from the unemployment benefit. | BLARK_translated | Eyðbjørg noyddist í ALS, men bleiv kløkk, tá ið hon sá, at hjúnafelagaeftirlønin varð drigin frá í arbeiðsloysisstuðlinum. |
According to ALS, Eyðbjørg Nilsson’s spouse’s pension was to be regarded as a civil servant’s survivor pension for the surviving spouse. And therefore the pension had to be offset against the unemployment benefit. | BLARK_translated | Sambært ALS var hjúnafelagaeftirlønin hjá Eyðbjørg Nilsson at rokna sum ein tænastumannapensjón fyri eftirsitandi hjúnafelaga. Og tískil skuldi pensjónin mótroknast í arbeiðsloysistuðlinum. |
But Eyðbjørg Nilsson would not accept this. She believed that ALS was mixing things up. | BLARK_translated | Men hetta vildi Eyðbjørg Nilsson ikki góðtaka. Hon helt, at ALS blandaði tingini saman. |
The provision on offsetting applies to your own pensions, but not to | BLARK_translated | Ásetingin um mótrokning er galdandi fyri tínar egnar pensjónir, men ikki fyri |
the pensions from others, such as a spouse, Eyðbjørg pointed out. | BLARK_translated | pensjónirnar frá øðrum, sum t.d. hjúnafelaga, vísti Eyðbjørg á. |
Unemployment benefits under the ALS Act are compensation for lost wage income caused by unemployment. A pension is also compensation for lost wage income and should therefore possibly be offset, if the pension was compensation for my lost wage income, so that I would not be doubly compensated. | BLARK_translated | Arbeiðsloysisstuðul eftir ALS-lógini er ein kompensatión fyri mista lønarinntøku orsaka av arbeiðsloysi. Pensjón er eisini kompensatión fyri mista lønarinntøku og skuldi tí møguliga verið mótroknað, um so var, at pensjónin var kompensatión fyri mína mistu lønarinntøku, so eg ikki varð dupult kompenserað. |
But the pension I receive is not compensation for my lost salary income, but compensation for the lost income of my husband, the deceased — a right that I have now been deprived of, she explained to the authorities. | BLARK_translated | Men pensjónin, eg fái, er ikki kompensatión fyri mína mistu lønarinntøku, men kompensatión fyri mistu inntøkuna hjá manni mínum, sála – ein rættur, sum eg nú eri traðkað inn í, greiddi hon myndugleikunum frá. |
If my husband had lived and worked/ or received a pension, then there would have been no problem, then I would have received the maximum payment without any deductions. It cannot be right that one gets a stone added to the burden, she reasoned. | BLARK_translated | Um maður mín livdi og arbeiddi/ ella fekk pensjón, so var einki problem, so fekk eg max. útgjald uttan nakað roks. Tað kann ikki vera rætt at man fær stein omaná byrðu, grundgav hon. |
The matter was there for eight months. And after extensive investigations the appeals board confirmed ALS’s decision: The survivor’s pension must be offset, because it is a civil servant’s pension that is covered by the offsetting rule, it was said. | BLARK_translated | Har var málið í átta mánaðir. Og eftir drúgvar kanningar staðfesti kærunevndin avgerðina hjá ALS: Einkjupensjónin skal mótroknast, tí talan er um eina tænastumannapensjón, ið er fevnd av regluni um mótrokning, varð sagt. |
But even though two instances had now stated how they believed the law should be interpreted, Eyðbjørg was still convinced that she was right. | BLARK_translated | Men hóast tveir instansir nú høvdu sagt hvussu teir hildu at lógin skuldi tulkast, var Eyðbjørg framvegis sannførd um at hon hevði rætt. |
The Ombudsman agrees with Eyðbjørg Nilsson that ALS cannot offset the spouse’s pension against the unemployment benefit. The purpose of the spouse’s pension is to secure the financial basis for the longer‑living spouse so that they can have roughly the same standard of living as before they became the sole provider, th... | BLARK_translated | Umboðsmaðurin er samdur við Eyðbjørg Nilsson um, at ALS kann ikki mótrokna hjúnafelagaeftirlønina í arbeiðsloysisstuðlinum. Endamálið við hjúnafelagapensjónini er at tryggja fíggjarliga grundarlagið hjá longstlivandi hjúnafelaga, soleiðis at hesin kann hava nøkunlunda somu lívskor, sum áðrenn viðkomandi bleiv einsamall... |
The pension can be offset against maintenance money, the representative maintains, and it must not be counted in the spouse’s unemployment benefit. | BLARK_translated | Pensjónin kann sammetast við uppihaldspening, heldur umboðsmaðurin, og tað skal ikki kosta í arbeiðsloysisstuðlinum hjá hjúnafelaganum. |
The Ombudsman has informed the authorities to correct the situation so that the administration complies with the law. | BLARK_translated | Umboðsmaðurin hevur givið myndugleikunum boð um at rætta viðurskiftini, so at umsitingin verður í samsvari við lógina. |
First of all, Eyðbjørg Nilsson will receive back the money that ALS wrongly deducted from the unemployment benefit over the past two years. | BLARK_translated | Sum tað fyrsta fær Eyðbjørg Nilsson pengarnar aftur, sum ALS av órøttum hevur mótroknað í arbeiðsloysisstuðlinum hesi seinastu tvey árini. |
At the same time, the representative has called on the Ministry of Transport to clarify the ALS law. It must now be made completely clear that only private civil service pensions and survivor’s pensions can be deducted from unemployment benefits. | BLARK_translated | Samstundis hevur umboðsmaðurin heitt á Samferðslumálaráðið um at útgreina ALS-lógina. Tað skal nú standa púra greitt, at tað bert eru egnar tænastumannapensjónir og eftirlønir, sum kunnu dragast frá í arbeiðsloysisstuðlinum. |
I just wanted to get it right. It has been tough, hard and given me headaches, says Eyðbjørg, who nevertheless thinks it has been worth the struggle. | BLARK_translated | Eg vildi bara hava tað rætt. Tað hevur verið strævið, tungt og givið høvuðbrýggj, sigur Eyðbjørg, sum kortini heldur at tað hevur verið stríðið vert. |
Also for those who come after me and end up in the same situation, so that they receive what they are entitled to. | BLARK_translated | Eisini fyri tey, sum koma eftir meg og enda í somu støðu, at tey fáa tað, sum tey eiga. |
Because of this the Icelandic Prime Minister had to resign, as he was revealed on live television to have hidden money in Panama. The same Prime Minister who had so politely asked the badly document-educated Icelanders to pay their taxes with joy. | BLARK_translated | Her fyri mátti íslendski forsætisráðharrin leggja frá sær, tí hann í beinleiðis sjónvarpssending varð avdúkaður í at hava krógvað pening í Panama. Sami forsætisráðharri sum so bønliga hevði biðið illa skølsettu íslendingarnar um at gjalda skatt við gleði. |
In the USA there is a scary fool who hates everything and everyone who is not like him, about to become the country's president. | BLARK_translated | Í USA er ein skræðugákur, sum hatar alt og øll sum ikki eru sum hann, um at gerast landsins forseti. |
In Denmark the political parties compete with the Danish People's Party to be intolerant toward refugees, and in Russia Putin is eating Faroese lobster. | BLARK_translated | Í Danmark kappast politisku flokkarnir við danska fólkaflokkin um at vera ófordragiligir móti flóttum, og í Ruslandi etir Putin føroyskan hummara. |
Now one is supposed to be horrified, but judging by everything it seems that with age even the most unthinkable is not so unthinkable after all. But that is still something to grieve about. | BLARK_translated | Nú átti man at ógvast, men eftir øllum at døma kemur tað við aldrinum, at sjálvt tað mest óhugsandi ikki er so óhugsandi kortini. Men fyri tað er tað at harmast um. |
Once I wondered why ideologues on the right wing were so obsessed with abolishing the minimum wage. Not the minimum wage that Faroese fishermen receive if the fishing does not hold up. No, | BLARK_translated | Einaferð undraðist eg á, at hugmyndafrøðingar á høgraveinginum vóru so altráðir eftir at avskaffa minstulønina. Ikki ta minstulønina, sum føroyskir fiskimenn fáa, um fiskiskapurin ikki vignast. Nei, |
this was about the minimum wage, which in several countries is by law set as the lowest wage that workers can sell their labor for. According to these right‑wing ideas, workers should not be bound by contractual wages or a minimum wage; that was tyranny. You should be free to sell yourself to work in Símun’s Grill Shop... | BLARK_translated | her var talan um tað minstulønina, sum í fleiri londum, við lóg, er ásett sum lægsta lønin løntakarar kunnu selja arbeiðsmegi sína fyri. Sambært hesum høgraoddvitum skuldu løntakarar ikki bindast niður við sáttmálalønum ella minstuløn, slíkt var harðræði. Tú skuldi vera frælsur at selja teg at arbeiða í Grillbúðini hjá... |
This is not about those who may be lacking a golden parachute when the cooperation ends, as they so politely put it; no, we are talking about the ordinary wage earner, where unemployment, illness or accident means financial ruin. What is most astonishing is the attitude towards people that lies behind such thinking. Wh... | BLARK_translated | Her er ikki talan um tey ið kunnu vanta sær gylt lógvatøk í hurðini, tá samarbeiðið steðgar, sum tað so fínt eitur; nei vit tosa um vanliga løntakaran, har arbeiðsloysi, sjúka ella óhapp merkir fíggjarligt skrædl. Tað sum er mest undranarvert er mannasýnið, sum liggur aftanfyri slíka hugsan. Hvat er tað fyri samfelag h... |
Some Faroese politicians are fully converted to and support the neoliberal creed, and we need to watch them. Worse is that other politicians, judging by all appearances, do not understand this same doctrine at all. You could at least detect that when the flat tax, in line with the neoliberal catechism, was rushed throu... | BLARK_translated | Nakrir føroyskir politikarar eru fullkønir í og taka undir við nýliberalu trúarlæruni, og teimum eiga vit at ansa eftir. Verri er, at aðrir politikarar, eftir øllum at døma, als ikki kenna hesa somu trúarlæru.

The Public Trade Union Cooperation now consists of 6 unions, representing about 5,600 members who work in the public labor market. The unions in the cooperation all agree that the voice of the employee must be strengthened. | BLARK_translated | Almenna fakfelagssamstarvið telur nú 6 feløg, umboðandi umleið 5.600 limir sum virka á almenna arbeiðsmarknaðinum. Feløgini í samstarvinum eru øll samd um, at røddin hjá arbeiðstakaranum má styrkjast. |
analyses are not available. And far too often statements from the employers' side or politicians go unanswered, because the capacity of the individual trade unions to participate in the public debate is limited. | BLARK_translated | greiningar ikki eru tøk. Og alt ov ofta standa útsagnir frá arbeiðsgevarasíðu ella politikarum ósvaraðar, tí arbeiðsorkan hjá einstøku fakfeløgunum, at luttaka í almenna kjakinum, er avmarkað. |
It can never be repeated too often, especially to the younger generations, that workers' rights did not come about by themselves, and that the pressure on acquired rights is constant. The attacks can come from reactionary politicians, but can also be packaged smartly and modernly like Ryanair. | BLARK_translated | Tað verður ongantíð endurtikið ov ofta, serliga mótvegis unga ættarliðnum, at rættindini hjá løntakarum eru ikki komin av sær sjálvum, og at ágangurin á vunnin rættindi er støðugur. Álopini kunnu koma frá forstokkaðum politikarum, men kunnu eisini verða ílætin smart og modernað sum Ryanair. |
The trade union struggle must continue, as long as we want everyone to have a dignified life. | BLARK_translated | Fakfelagsstríðið má halda fram, so leingi vit unna øllum eitt virðiligt lív. |
A very good activity that we would not want to be without, says Oluffa. | BLARK_translated | Eitt avbera gott ítriv, sum vit ikki vildu vera fyriuttan, sigur Oluffa. |
This time the general meeting is very special, because this is the first time that we meet in our new auditorium, in Smæran, which was taken into use last summer. | BLARK_translated | Hesaferð er aðalfundurin heilt serligur, tí hettar er fyrstu ferð at vit hittast í okkara nýggja auditorium, í Smæruni, sum varð tikið í brúk seinasta summar. |
At this year’s general meeting two board members are up for election. One of them is the association’s vice chairman, Niels á Reynatúgvu.

Annar av hesum er næstformaður felagsins, Niels á Reynatúgvu. Skipanin hjá Starvsmannafelagnum er soleiðis, at nevndarlimir ikki kunnu sita longur enn tríggjar ferðir trý ár samanhangandi, og hetta hevur við sær, at Niels nú fellur fyri hesi áseting, og má ha... |
I will here take the opportunity to thank Niels for the time he has served on the association's board. He has left behind a great and good contribution. | BLARK_translated | Eg fari her at nýta høvi at takka Niels fyri tíðina hann hevur virkað í nevnd felagsins. Hann hevur lagt eitt stórt og gott arbeiði eftir seg. |
The board member who is up for election is Svend Åge Seloy. | BLARK_translated | Hin nevndarlimurin, ið stendur fyri vali er Svend Åge Seloy. |
Since the Trade Union carried out the addiction survey in 2014, real light has been cast on this serious problem, which has been and partly still is a taboo issue. Experts predicted years ago that by 2020 addiction would become the most widespread disease in our part of the world. | BLARK_translated | Síðani Starvsmannafelagið gjørdi strongdkanningina í 2014, er ljós av álvara varpað á henda álvarsliga trupulleika, sum hevur verið og partvís enn er ein tabusjúka.

After last year’s general meeting, the board decided to reduce the number of journals from four to one per year, which would also serve as a general meeting issue. The decision was presented to the representatives in June last year and received broad support. | BLARK_translated | Eftir aðalfundin í fjør, tók nevndin avgerð um at fara úr fýra bløðum niður í eitt blað um árið, sum skuldi verða eitt aðalfundarblað burturav. Avgerðin var løgd fyri álitisfólkini í juni í fjør og fekk breiða undirtøku. |
In a new form The Annual Report, which is the first since I took over as chair of the Staff Association, is somewhat different than in previous years, but it still, as the statutes say, describes the developments of the past year and various aspects of the association’s activities. At the same time we also look ahead. ... | BLARK_translated | í nýggjum hami Ársfrágreiðingin, sum er tann fyrsta síðani eg tók við sum formaður í Starvsmannafelagnum, er nakað øðrvísi enn undanfarin ár, men hon fer framvegis, sum viðtøkurnar siga, at lýsa gongdina farna árið og ymsar tættir av virksemi felagsins. Samstundis sum vit eisini hyggja frameftir. Men hon verður greina ... |
New public salary system Work has begun to investigate which salary system should replace the current system, which most of us consider to be too rigid and outdated. | BLARK_translated | Nýggj almenn lønarskipan Arbeiði er byrja við at kanna hvør lønarskipan skal koma í staðin fyri verandi skipan, ið flestu okkara halda verða ov stirvna og ótíðarhóskandi. |
A working group has been appointed to carry out this work. The objective of the wage committee is to achieve a (at least partial) result before the upcoming negotiations, which will take place in the autumn. In my opinion, one of the first things the wage committee must do is determine what the content of such a wage s... | BLARK_translated | Arbeiðsbólkur er settur at gera hetta arbeiði. Málsetningurin hjá lønarnevndini er at náa einum (í øllum førum partvísum) úrsliti, áðrenn komandi samráðingar, sum verða í heyst. Eftir mínum tykki má lønarnevndin sum eitt tað fyrsta, finna útav hvat innihaldið í einari slíkari lønarskipan skal verða. Av tí, at Starvsman... |
It was in January last year that Súlan merged with the Union of Salaried Employees. Súlan, which had a contract with the Faroese Employers' Association, is now an interest group within the Union of Salaried Employees. | BLARK_translated | Tað var í januar í fjør, at Súlan kastaði saman við Starvsmannafelagnum. Súlan, sum hevði sáttmála við Føroya Arbeiðsgevarafelag, er nú áhugafelag í Starvsmannafelagnum. |
It has now been possible to get all cabin crew under the agreement. That means not only the flight attendants who are in regular positions with a permanent post in the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Tað hevur nú eydnast at fáa øll kabinustarvsfólkini undir sáttmálan. Tað vil siga ikki bert flogternurnar, sum eru í vanligum starvi við fastari støð í Føroyum. |
But also those who work as "freelancers" and those who have permanent positions in Denmark. | BLARK_translated | Men eisini tær, sum arbeiða sum „freelansarar“ og tær, sum hava fasta støð í Danmark. |
Thus we have arranged matters for all cabin crew at Atlantic Airways. | BLARK_translated | Sostatt hava vit fingið skipað viðurskifti fyri øll kabinustarvsfólkini hjá Atlantsflogi. |
DIGITAL FAROE ISLANDS: Súni Selfoss, chairman of the Employees’ Association, is sounding the alarm now that the digital development of our society is really getting underway. Not because he wants to delay or stop development, but because he is missing a statement from the political authorities about what will happen to... | BLARK_translated | TALGILDU FØROYAR: Súni Selfoss, formaður í Starvsmannafelagnum, rópar varskó, nú hol veruliga verður sett á talgildu menningina av samfelagi okkara. Ikki tí hann vil seinka ella steðga menningini, men tí hann saknar eina fráboðan frá politiska myndugleikanum um, hvat skal henda við teimum starvs fólkunum, sum eru í va... |
Not a sound is heard in the basement of Tjaldur's Pharmacy when the customers upstairs are to collect the requested medicine. Because there is not a single person there. | BLARK_translated | Tað hoyrist ikki eitt orð í kjallar anum á Tjaldurs Apoteki, tá við skiftafólkini á veghæddini skulu hava umbidna heilivágin. Tí har er ikki eitt menniskja. |
Previously it was like this: when a customer came into a pharmacy for medicine, the prescriptions were handwritten and the medicine packages lay in drawers in the counter. | BLARK_translated | Fyrr var tað soleiðis, at tá eitt viðskiftafólk kom inn á eitt apotek eftir heilivági, vóru receptirnar hond skrivaðar og heilivágspakkarnir lógu í skuffum í erva. |
But that time is gone. Now the medicine is arranged on the many shelves in the cellar. And instead of there being handy people who | BLARK_translated | Men tann tíðin er farin. Nú liggur heilivágurin skipaður í teimum mongu hillunum í kjallaranum. Og ístaðin fyri at tað eru mannahendur, sum |
And although the change was large, the decision, according to Hjaltur Gunnarstein, who is temporarily appointed national pharmacist, was not just right. It was a great step forward. | BLARK_translated | Og hóast broytingin var stór, var avgerðin sambært Hjalta Gunnarstein, sum er fyribilssettur landsapotekari, ikki bara røtt. Hon var eitt stórt fram stig. |
tasks that are assigned to the pharmacy service. And we have also reorganized all work with prescriptions so that they are now digital, which among other things means that we have much better statistics on medicines and medicine usage, says Hjalti Gunnarstein. | BLARK_translated | uppgávur, sum eru lagdar á apoteks verkið. Og so hava vit eisini umlagt alt arbeiði við receptum, so tær nú eisini eru talgildar, og tað hevur m.a. við sær, at vit hava nógv betri hagtalstilfar um heilivág og heilivágsnýtslu, sigur Hjalti Gunnarstein. |
Once the authorities had obtained the documents, they had to be entered into the IT system so work could be done on them. And even before that, the tax had to be calculated by hand based on the information from the taxpayer. | BLARK_translated | Tá myndugleikin hevði fingið fatur á skjølunum, skuldu tey tastast inn í KTskipanina, so arbeiðast kundi við teimum. Og uppaftur áðrenn tað, skuldi skatturin útroknast við hond við støði í upplýsingunum frá skattaborgaranum. |
But now that is all history and has been for many years. Now everything is automated. Taks holds all the information, and therefore today's taxpayer only has to confirm that what is in the authorities’ records is correct. And if it is not, the citizen must make the necessary changes. The changes are made via the websit... | BLARK_translated | Men nú er alt tað søga og hevur verið tað í nógv ár. Nú er alt tað sjálv virkandi. Taks liggur inni við øllum upplýsingunum, og tí skal skatta borgarin í dag bara vátta at tað sum stendur í skráunum hjá myndug leikanum er tað rætta. Og um tað ikki er, skal borgarin gera tær neyðugu broytingarnar. Broytingarnar vera ... |
According to Eyðuni Mørkøre, director at Taks, the changes, or improvements if one prefers to call them that, are the result of a desire to provide a better, more precise and also cheaper service. | BLARK_translated | Sambært Eyðuni Mørkøre, stjóra á Taks, eru broytingarnar, ella menn ingin um man heldur vil tað, eitt úrslit av einum ynski um at veita eina betri, neyvari og eisini bíligari tænastu. |
He admits that the changes have altered the institution, because over the past eight years the number of employees has decreased by 23. But he nevertheless believes that the institution today is better than before | BLARK_translated | Hann viðurkennir, at broytingar nar hava broytt stovnin, tí seinastu átta árini er talið av starvsfólkum minkað við 23. Men hann heldur tó, at talan í dag er um ein betri stovn enn fyri |
eight years ago, because the service that Taks provides today is better than it was. And today the people work on customer service and supervision instead of time-consuming tasks that can be done faster and better by automation. | BLARK_translated | átta árum síðan, tí tænastan, sum Taks veitir í dag er betri enn hon var. Og í dag arbeiða fólkini við kundatænastu og eftirliti ístaðin fyri tíðarkrevjandi uppgávum, sum skjótari og betur kunnu gerast sjálvvirkandi. |
In the offices of the Civil Servants' Association on J. H. Schrøtersgøta in Tórshavn, the association's chairman, Súni Selfoss, sits and reflects on digitisation and automation. | BLARK_translated | Á skrivstovuni hjá Starvsmannafelag num í J. H. Schrøtersgøtu í Havn, situr formaður felagsins, Súni Selfoss, og hugleiðir um talgilding og automatiser ing. |
In his mental world the change, or development, if that is the word one prefers to use, can be compared in many ways with what happened in the 18th century when the Industrial Revolution transformed Europe. Now we are just taking the next step, into a new era. | BLARK_translated | Í hansara hugaheimi kann broyt ingin, ella menningin, um tað er tað orðið man heldur vil brúka, í mangar mátar samanberast við tað sum hendi í 18. øld, tá ídnaðarkollveltingin broytti Evropa. Nú fara vit bara stigið víðari, inn í eitt nýtt tíðarskeið. |
And although the chairman of the Staff Association has no plans to prevent or stop technological development, he would like to hear from the authorities what will happen to those employees who are at risk of being squeezed by digitalization and automation. | BLARK_translated | Og hóast formaður Starvsmanna felagsins ongar ætlanir hevur um at forða ella steðga tøkniligu menningini, vil hann fegin hava at vita frá myndug leikunum, hvat skal henda við teimum starvsfólkum, sum eru í vanda fyri at liggja í klemmu í talgildingini og automatiseringini. |
We know that when work on such automation begins, as we see now and have seen somewhere else in | BLARK_translated | Vit vita, at tá farið verður undir slíkt automatiseringsarbeiði, sum vit síggja nú og hava sæð onkustaðni í |
Now at the beginning of this text we have mentioned two institutions that have already made major changes in the technical field, and what they have in common is that each of them, in their own way, has taken responsibility for the challenges that the staff have faced as a result of the changes. | BLARK_translated | Nú hava vit í byrjanini av hesum teksti nevnt tveir stovnar, sum longu hava gjørt stórar broytingar á tøkniliga økinum, og felags fyri teir báðar stovn arnar er, at teir hvør í sínum lagi sjálvir hava tikið sær av teimum avbjóðing um, sum starvsfólkini hava fingið av broytingunum. |
This is one of the core questions for the chairman of the Employees’ Association. Should it be a task for each individual institution itself? Or should the public employer create a procedure to be used when manual tasks are to be automated? There is no doubt about what Súni Selfoss thinks. | BLARK_translated | Hetta er tann eini av kjarnuspurn ingunum hjá formanni Starvsmanna felagsins. Skal tað vera ein uppgáva hjá hvørjum einstøkum stovni sær? Ella skal almenni arbeiðsgevarin gera eina mannagongd sum skal brúkast, tá manuellar uppgávur vera automatiser aðar. Tað er eingin ivi um, hvat Súni Selfoss heldur. |
The question of what can be gained from digitizing the Faroe Islands is chosen as the focus. | BLARK_translated | Spurningurin um, hvat fæst burtur úr at talgilda Føroyar valdast eygað sum sær. |
The project manager in Digitized Faroe Islands, Nicolai M. Balle, acknowledges that when such efficiency work is undertaken, there is of course a risk that jobs will disappear, and therefore must | BLARK_translated | Verkætlanarstjórin í Talgildu Føroyum, Nicolai M. Balle, viðurkennir, at tá farið verður undir slíkt effektiviseringsarbeiði, er sjálvandi ein vandi fyri, at størv hvørva, og tí mugu |
All parties, of course, have in mind how that question will be resolved. | BLARK_translated | allir partar sjálvandi hava í huga, hvussu tann spurningurin verður loystur. |
The point of Digital Faroe Islands is to provide citizens with a more efficient, better and expanded service than we have today. What each individual gains, of course, depends on the role they have in society. The Ministry of Finance may perhaps see some opportunities for savings, the Ministry of Industry for growth, a... | BLARK_translated | Málið við Talgildu Føroyum er at veita borgarunum eina effektivari, betri og víðkaða tænastu enn vit hava í dag. Hvat hvør einstakur fær burturúr, valdast sjálvandi hvønn leiklut tey hava í samfelagnum. Fíggjarmálaráðið sær kanska nakrar møguleikar fyri sparingum, vinnumálaráðið fyri vøkstri og borgarin, at hann fær ei... |
Today we have several different systems that all need to be maintained, but with a common system containing basic information, it will be simpler and safer for all parties, says Nicolai M. Balle. | BLARK_translated | Vit hava í dag fleiri ymiskar skipanir, sum allar skulu viðlíkahaldast, men við einari felags skipan við grundupplýsingum, verður tað einfaldari og tryggari hjá øllum pørtum, sigur Nicolai M. Balle. |
