For this to become possible, the associations must first of all sit down together and, with an open mind, consider this great breakthrough, which I believe it would have been. And how it would have been most sensible to organise such an association. | BLARK_translated | Skal hetta gerast møguligt, mugu feløgini fyrst av øllum seta seg saman og við opnum sinni viðgera hetta stóra frambrot, sum eg meti, tað hevði verði. Og hvussu tað hevði verið skilabest at skipa ein slíkan felagsskap. |
The work to create a public salary system continues and, according to our agreement, is to be completed in 2018. | BLARK_translated | Arbeiðið at gera eina almenna lønarskipan heldur fram og skal sambært okkara semju verða liðugt í 2018. |
In the agreement that was made after the collective bargaining negotiations in 2015, a deal was made to set up a working group that would review the public pay scale and work toward a new public salary system. | BLARK_translated | Í semjuni, sum varð gjørd eftir sáttmálasamráðingarnar í 2015, varð avtala gjørd um at skipa ein arbeiðsbólk, sum skuldi eftirkanna almenna lønarlagið og arbeiða fram ímóti eini nýggjari almennari lønarskipan. |
During the collective bargaining period the public pay level will be examined both overall and for individual occupational groups. Possibilities for organizing a common pay system within the public sector must be described. It must be examined whether the contracts and agreements the public sector has with trade unions... | BLARK_translated | Í sáttmálaskeiðinum verður almenna lønarlagið kanna bæði sum heild og hjá einstøkum starvsbólkum. Lýsast skulu møguleikar fyri at skipa eina felags lønarskipan innan tað almenna. Kannast skal um sáttmálarnir og avtalurnar tað almenna hevur við fakfeløg, skapa hóskandi karmar fyri at kunna broyta og endurnýggja almenna ... |
so that he can reasonably achieve his goals. The work must be completed by 2018 at the latest. | BLARK_translated | at hann skynsamast kann røkka sínum endamálum. Arbeiðið skal verða liðugt í seinasta lagi í 2018. |
There is little doubt that a new public pay system is of great importance for the members of the Civil Servants’ Association. Finally there is an opportunity to analyze public salaries and, not least, the positions and work tasks. This so that the employees receive the pay that the job duties rightfully deserve. | BLARK_translated | Lítið er at ivast í, at ein nýggj almenn lønarskipan er av alstórum týdningi fyri limirnar hjá Starvsmannafelagnum. Loksins er møguleiki fyri at fáa greina almennu lønirnar og ikki minst størvini og arbeiðsuppgávurnar. Hettar so at starvsfólkið fær ta løn, ið starvsuppgávan av røttum eigur |
It is to be welcomed that the agreement partner acknowledges the need to describe the wage level in the labour market. It is also my clear understanding that all parties with an open mind see the possibility of establishing organized pay conditions, where, among other things, experience, the position, education, qualif... | BLARK_translated | Tað er at fegnast um, at sáttmálaparturin viðurkennir tørvin at lýsa lønarlagið á arbeiðsmarknaðinum. Eisini er tað mín greiða fatan, at allir partar við opnum sinni síggja møguleikan at fáa skipaði lønarviðurskiftir, har tað m.a. eru royndir, starvið, útbúgving, heimildir og ábyrgd, sum avgera, hvussu lønin skal vera. |
The Trade Union Cooperation – which is a collaboration between six trade unions – continues as before. However, after a good year in the position, the advisor in the association, Poula Michelsen, chose to resign from the post last summer. | BLARK_translated | Fakfelagssamstarvið – sum er samstarv millum seks fakfeløg – heldur áfram sum higartil. Tó so. Eftir eitt gott ár í starvi, valdi ráðgevin í samtakinum, Poula Michelsen, at siga seg úr starvi í fjør summar. |
She chose to take up the opportunity to work in the family business, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank Poula for the time she spent with us and wish her a good start. | BLARK_translated | Hon valdi at taka av møguleikanum at fara í starv í familjufyritøkuni, og vil eg her nýta høvið at takka Poulu fyri tíðina, hon var hjá okkum og ynskja henni blíðan byr. |
The Trade Union Cooperation is currently considering whether a new person should be hired and how this should be organized in the future. | BLARK_translated | Fakfelagssamstarvið umhugsar í løtuni um nýtt fólk skal setast í starv og hvussu hetta í framtíðini skal skipast. |
The organizations in the trade union cooperation are the Civil Servants' Association, the Pedagogues' Association, the Nurses' Association, the Teachers' Association, the Tórshavn Working Women's Association and the Association of Academics. | BLARK_translated | Feløgini í fakfelagssamstarvinum eru Starvsmannafelagið, Pedagogfelagið, Sjúkrarøktarfelagið, Lærarafelagið, Havnar Arbeiðskvinnufelag og Akademikararafelagið. |
We hear daily about the housing crisis. Therefore it is to be welcomed that Bústaðir and Tórshavn Municipality, where the pressure is undoubtedly greatest, are now playing out plans to build more apartments in the coming years. | BLARK_translated | Vit hoyra dagliga um bústaðarneyðina. Tí er at fegnast um, at Bústaðir og Tórshavnar kommuna, har trýstið óiva er størst, nú spíla seg út við ætlanum um komandi árini at byggja fleiri íbúðir. |
We are often accused by trade unions of not being willing to build housing. It is said that the trade unions’ coffers are overflowing with money that could be put to good use. | BLARK_translated | Ofta verða vit fakfeløg harta fyri ikki at vera sinnaði at byggja íbúðir. Sagt verður, at pengakassarnir hjá fakfeløgunum eru á tremur við pengum, sum kundu gjørt nyttu. |
In September last year, the Tórshavn municipality organised a themed day, the headline of which was: | BLARK_translated | Í september í fjør skipaði Tórshavnar kommuna fyri temadegi, har yvirskriftin var: |
How can we together solve the challenges of the housing shortage based on building rental apartments? | BLARK_translated | Hvussu kunnu vit saman loysa avbjóðingarnar við bústaðartørvinum við støði í at byggja leiguíbúðir? |
This was a very good meeting, where several stakeholders presented their views. I myself was asked to share my thoughts on how I see the role of the trade unions in such a project. | BLARK_translated | Hetta var ein sera góður fundur, har fleiri aktørar løgdu fram síni sjónarmið. Sjálvur varð eg biðin um at siga mína hugsan, um hvussu eg síggi leiklutin hjá fakfeløgunum í eini slíkari verkætlan. |
Among other things, I pointed out that the Civil Servants' Association is primarily a trade union, which is governed by statutes that are ratified by the highest authority in the association, the general meeting. | BLARK_translated | Eg vísti millum annað á, at Starvsmannafelagið er fyrst og fremst eitt fakfelag, sum verður stýrt eftir viðtøkum, ið eru kjølfestar av hægsta mynduleikanum í felagnum, aðalfundinum. |
Among other things, the statutes state in § 2, subsection 1, that the association's purpose is, on a democratic and equal basis, continually to work for better working conditions. | BLARK_translated | Í viðtøkunum stendur millum annað í § 2, stk. 1, at Endamál felagsins er á demokratiskum og javnstøðiligum grundarlagi støðugt at virka fyri betri arbeiðskorum. |
Paragraph 3. The chairman must carry out the duties that the laws of the Civil Servants' Association and the general meeting impose on the board. | BLARK_translated | Stk. 3. Formaðurin skal útinna tær skyldur, sum lógir Starvsmannafelagsins og aðalfundurin áleggja nevndini. |
Paragraph 4. The committee shall enter into agreements on salary and working conditions and shall decide on the termination of existing agreements, and may also initiate and end industrial disputes. | BLARK_translated | Stk. 4. Nevndin skal gera sáttmálar um lønar- og arbeiðsviðurskifti og tekur avgerð um uppsøgn av galdandi sáttmálum og kann eisini seta í verk og enda yrkisósemjur. |
I completely agree that the housing issue is a problem that must be solved. But I cannot see that the trade unions and their members should finance such construction. They are not the ones who have and/or own this problem. And I also do not believe that they should take on the problem. | BLARK_translated | Eg eri púra samdur í, at íbúðarspurningurin er ein trupulleiki, ið má loysast. Men eg dugi ikki at síggja, at tað eru fakfeløgini og limir teirra, ið skulu fíggja slíka bygging. Tað eru ikki hesi, ið hava og/ella eiga henda trupulleikan. Og eg haldi heldur ikki, at hesi skulu átaka sær trupulleikan. |
Of course members of the Civil Servants' Association are also affected by the housing shortage. But I still do not think that it is our or their task to solve the problem. | BLARK_translated | Sjálvandi eru limir í Starvsmannafelagnum eisini raktir av íbúðarneyðini. Men eg meti framvegis ikki, at tað er okkara ella teirra uppgáva, at loysa trupulleikan. |
In my best conviction, I believe that the housing problem is a societal problem that rests with the state and the municipalities. | BLARK_translated | Eftir míni bestu sannføring haldi eg, at íbúðartrupulleikin er ein samfelagstrupulleiki, ið liggur hjá landi og kommunum. |
The country has set some goals with the public agency Bústaðir, but this does not meet the need today, and probably not in the coming years either. | BLARK_translated | Landið hevur, við almenna stovninum Bústaðir, sett sær nøkur mál, men hetta nøktar ikki tørvin í dag, og helst ikki komandi árini heldur. |
The minister responsible for financial affairs has also tried to make changes to the tax system when it comes to renting out apartments. | BLARK_translated | Eisini hevur landsstýriskvinnan við fíggjarmálum roynt at gera broytingar í skattaskipanini, tá ið umræður at leiga íbúðir út. |
These are extremely positive initiatives that will undoubtedly address the most serious problem. | BLARK_translated | Hetta eru ógvuliga positiv átøk, ið uttan iva taka hond um tann ringasta trupulleikan. |
That the Tórshavn municipality is now also shedding light on the housing shortage in the municipality is both particularly good and timely. After all, it is in the central area, especially in the capital region, that the problem is greatest. | BLARK_translated | At Tórshavnar kommuna nú eisini varpar ljós á íbúðarneyðina í kommununi er eisini serstakliga gott og tiltrongt. Tað er jú í miðstaðarøkinum, serliga í høvuðstaðarumráðnum, at trupulleikin er størstur. |
I understand well that the municipality is trying to get others involved in such a large project. That would be financial institutions, insurance companies, foundations and business in general. | BLARK_translated | Eg skilji væl at kommunan roynir at fáa onnur við í eina slíka stóra verkætlan. Tað verði seg fíggjarstovnar, tryggingarfeløg, grunnar og vinnuna annars. |
The board of the Civil Servants’ Association has considered the question of whether the association should take part in such a project. We have not made a final decision, but our provisional conclusion is that we do not consider this to be a project that the Civil Servants’ Association ought to — or should be directly ... | BLARK_translated | Nevndin í Starvsmannafelagnum hevur viðgjørt spurningin um felagið skal verða við í slíkari verkætlan. Vit hava ikki tikið endaliga støðu, men okkara fyribils niðurstøða er, at vit meta ikki at hetta er ein verkætlan, sum Starvsmannafelagið eigur ella skal verða beinleiðis partur av. |
Our task as a trade union is exactly the same as that of all other companies. Investments must yield returns; anything else is not good enough. | BLARK_translated | Uppgávan hjá okkum sum fakfelag, er júst tann sama, sum hjá øllum øðrum fyritøkum. Íløgur skulu geva avkast, alt annað er ikki nóg gott. |
A question was also asked whether the trustees have knowledge that the decisions they are supposed to be involved in have actually been made in advance. Here more than half, a total of 30 out of 51 affirmative, answer that they 'always' or 'often' have such knowledge. | BLARK_translated | Spurningur varð eisini settur, um álitisfólkini hava frænir av, at avgerðirnar, sum tey skulu vera við í, í roynd og veru eru tiknar frammanundan. Her svarar meiri enn helvtin, tilsamans 30 av 51 játtandi, at hesum hava tey 'altíð' ella 'ofta' frænir av. |
The survey was conducted at the annual members' meeting of the Staff Association, which was in Smæruna on Tuesday, December 12. | BLARK_translated | Kanningin varð gjørd á árliga álitisfólkafundinum hjá Starvsmannafelagnum, sum var í Smæruni týsdagin 12. desember. |
52 trusted representatives answered a questionnaire. Only people with experience in representative work responded, i.e. not the newly elected representatives. | BLARK_translated | 52 álitisfólk svaraðu einum spurnarblaði. Einans fólk við royndum í álitisfólkaarbeiði hava svarað, t.v.s. ikki tey nývaldu álitisfólkini. |
Four questions were asked, based on the wording of § 2 in the agreements on information and participation at workplaces when changes occur. In a few individual cases, the union representatives did not answer all the questions. | BLARK_translated | Fýra spurningar vórðu settir, sum tóku støði í orðingunum í § 2 í sáttmálunum um kunning og medávirkan á arbeiðsplássunum, tá broytingar henda. Í onkrum einstøkum føri hava álitisfólkini ikki svarað øllum spurningunum. |
It is serious if provisions on information and consultation do not work as they should, says the chairman of the Civil Servants' Association. We must do something about it immediately. The issue was put on the agenda in 2018. | BLARK_translated | Tað er álvarsamt, um ásetingarar um kunning og hoyring ikki virka, sum tær skulu, sigur formaðurin í Starvsmannafelagnum. Tað mugu vit gera nakað við beinanvegin. Evnið er sett á breddan í 2018. |
The association has long had the impression that the provisions on consultation and information in connection with the change process in the workplaces have not worked as they are intended. | BLARK_translated | Felagið hevur leingi havt varhugan av, at ásetingarnar um hoyring og kunning í sambandi við broytingartilgongdina á arbeiðsplássunum, ikki hava virkað sum tær eru ætlaðar. |
The survey, which was conducted among the representatives on December 12, unfortunately confirms this suspicion. | BLARK_translated | Spurnarkanningin, sum varð gjørd millum álitisfólkini 12. desember, váttar tíverri hendan illgruna. |
A survey that Gallup conducted among the members of the Civil Servants' Union last year showed roughly the same trend. | BLARK_translated | Ein kanning, sum Gallup gjørdi millum limirnar í Starvsmannafelagið í fjør vísti nøkulunda sama rák. |
About one third of the members who answered then said they experienced that employees are only sometimes, rarely or never consulted when changes are made at the workplace. One third answered that they are only sometimes consulted. | BLARK_translated | Umleið ein triðingur av limunum, ið svaraðu tá, søgdu seg uppliva, at bert onkuntíð, sjáldan ella ongantíð verða starvsfólk tikin við uppá ráð, tá broytingar verða framdar á arbeiðsplássinum. Ein triðingur svaraði, at tey bert onkuntíð verða tikin við. |
This gives a fairly clear indication that the contractual provisions on participation regarding changes are not working as they should, says Súni Selfoss. | BLARK_translated | Hetta gevur eina rættuliga greiða ábending um, at sáttmálaásetingarnar um medávirkan í sambandi við broytingar ikki virka sum tær skulu, sigur Súni Selfoss. |
We have to get something done about this right away. The agreement must be upheld. The public staff policy, which also contains provisions on participation, must as well, says the chairperson of the Civil Servants’ Association. | BLARK_translated | Tað mugu vit fá gjørt nakað við beinanvegin. Sáttmálin skal haldast. Tað skal almenni starvsfólkapolitikkurin, sum eisini hevur ásetingar um medávirkan, eisini, sigur formaðurin í Starvsmannafelagnum. |
In all countries in our part of the world it is an accepted right that employee representatives are involved in the process when significant changes are made in the workplaces. | BLARK_translated | Í øllum londum í okkara parti av heiminum er tað ein viðurkendur rættur, at starvsfólkaumboðini eru við í tilgongdini, tá ið týðandi broytingar verða gjørdar á arbeiðsplássunum. |
Furthermore, changes often have concrete consequences for positions. Therefore it is important that the union representatives have the opportunity to be involved when it must be assessed whether the changes are so significant that they cannot be implemented immediately but must be announced with individual notice perio... | BLARK_translated | Harumframt hava broytingar ofta við sær ítøkiligar avleiðingar fyri størv. Tí er tað týdningarmikið, at álitisfólkini fáa høvi at vera við, tá metast skal um hvørt broytingarnar eru so stórar, at tær ikki kunnu setast í verk beinanvegin, men mugu fráboðast við individuellu uppsagnarfreistunum. |
In this connection it is of great importance that the trusted representatives are brought into the process in good time. And according to all appearances they are not at the moment, the survey among the trusted representatives shows. | BLARK_translated | Í hesum sambandi hevur tað stóran týdning, at álitisfólkini koma við í tilgongdina í góðari tíð. Og tað vera tey eftir øllum at døma ikki í løtuni, vísir kanningin millum álitisfólkini. |
In August last year, the Trade Union was the host of a Nordic trade union conference, where the topic was precisely cooperation and shared responsibility in the labour market. | BLARK_translated | Í august í fjør var Starvsmannafelagið vertur fyri norðurlendskari fakfelagsráðstevna, har evnið júst varð samstarv og medábyrgd á arbeiðsmarknaðinum. |
The theme day in 2018 is yet another step to shed light on the great importance this has for a modern workplace, says Súni Selfoss. | BLARK_translated | Evnisdagurin í 2018 er so enn eitt stig, at varpa ljós á tann stóra týdning, sum hetta hevur á einum nútímans arbeiðsplássi, sigur Súni Selfoss. |
When we talk about cooperation, it is crucial that the trusted representatives as a whole will feel that they truly have influence and are heard when important decisions are made at their workplace, he says. | BLARK_translated | Tá vit tosa um samstarv er alt avgerðandi, at álitisfólkini sum heild fara at uppliva, at tey veruliga hava medávirkan og verða hoyrd, tá týðandi avgerðir verða tiknar á teirra arbeiðsplássi, sigur hann. |
The reason is more concrete or practical, and has a direct connection to the job security of the employees who are affected by the changes. | BLARK_translated | Hin grundin er meira ítøkilig ella praktisk, og hevur beinleiðis samband við setanartrygdina hjá starvsfólkunum, ið verða ávirkað av broytingunum. |
The purpose of the rules on information and consultation is fundamentally to create respect and trust between management and employees. | BLARK_translated | Endamálið við reglum um kunning og hoyring, er grundleggjandi at skapa virðing og álit millum leiðslu og starvsfólk. |
The aim is also to create buy-in among the staff for the decisions. Ensure that problems and professional blind spots, which may not be so easy to spot in the management process, are uncovered in good time. So that the plans do not backfire. | BLARK_translated | Endamálið er eisini at skapa undirtøku millum starvsfólkini fyri avgerðunum. Tryggja at vandamál og fakligir blindvinklar, sum kanska ikki eru so lættir at fáa eyga á stjóragongini, verða avdúkaðir í góðari tíð. So at ætlanirnar ikki sláa bakk. |
The advantages of being able to know and hear the employees are clear. It is the difference between the top-down and authoritarian leadership that always knows best, and the democratic leadership that takes the time to listen and also has the courage to change course when warnings sound. | BLARK_translated | Fyrimunirnir við at kunna og hoyra starvsfólkini eru eyðsýndir. Tað er munurin millum ta toppstýrdu og maktfullkomnu leiðsluna, sum altíð veit best, og ta demokratisku leiðsluna, sum gevur sær stundir at lurta og eisini hevur dirvið at broyta kós, tá ið ávaringar ljóða. |
When a municipality considers privatizing part of the service or digitizing services, it is important that union representatives and the cooperation committee can explain which advantages and disadvantages they see with this. Will this be a saving or double work? Should staff be retrained, jobs changed, employees reloc... | BLARK_translated | Tá ein stovnur umhugsar at privatisera ein part av tænastuni ella at talgilda tænastur, so er tað týdningarmikið, at álitisfólk og samstarvsnevnd kunnu greiða frá hvørjar fyrimunir og vansar, tey síggja við hesum. Verður hetta ein sparing ella dupult arbeiði? Skulu starvsfólk umskúlast, størv broytast, starvsfólk flyta... |
The staff are the ones who know their area of work best. And with a hearing in which the trusted representatives and the cooperation committee are truly included in the process, management can get the issue better clarified. It can listen and change the plan, or stick to it. | BLARK_translated | Starvsfólkini eru tey, sum kenna sítt arbeiðsøki best. Og við eini hoyring, har álitisólkini og samstarvsnevndin veruliga verða tikin við í tilgongdina, kann leiðslan fáa málið betri lýst. Hon kann lurta, og broyta ætlan, ella halda fast. |
It may be necessary that employees have to do something different now that functions are being digitized or privatized. Employees may have to be moved from one village to another. Someone may no longer be a manager, because departments are to be merged. | BLARK_translated | Neyðugt er kanska, at starvsfólk mugu gera okkurt annað, nú funktiónir verða talgildar ella privatiseraðar. Starvsfólk skulu kanska flytast úr einari bygd í aðra. Onkur skal ikki vera leiðari longur, tí at deildir skulu leggjast saman. |
this requires that the workplace has made plans in good time. | BLARK_translated | ettar krevur at arbeiðsplássið hevur lagt ætlanir í góðari tíð. |
This is not always done. Changes are rushed through, and changes — which rightly should have been announced in advance — are forced through. This undermines the legal security of the employees. | BLARK_translated | Hetta verður ikki altíð gjørt. Broytingar vera skundaðar ígjøgnum, og broytingar – sum av røttum skuldu verið varslaðar frammanundan – verða trýstar ígjøgnum. Hettar gongur út yvir rættartrygdina hjá starvsfólkunum. |
BACKGROUND: The right of employees, through their union representatives, to be heard and to be consulted is a fundamental right in our part of the world. The rights are established in law, collective agreements and other binding arrangements. Cooperation between the employer and the employee representatives is part of ... | BLARK_translated | BAKGRUND: Rætturin hjá starvsfólkunum, gjøgnum álitisumboðini, at vera hoyrd og at verða tikin við í ráðum, er ein grundfestur rættur í okkara parti av heimum. Rættindini eru staðfest í lóg, kollektivum sáttmálum og øðrum bindandi avtalum. Samstarv millum arbeiðsgevara og álitisfólk er partur av einum modernaðum arbeið... |
When the trade unions more than 100 years ago recognized the right to management, the employers at the same time accepted the employees’ right to organize into trade unions. Unions with shop stewards as their extended arm out on the workplaces. | BLARK_translated | Tá fakfeløgini fyri meira enn 100 árum síðani viðurkendu leiðslurættin, góðtóku arbeiðsgevararnir samstundis rættin hjá starvsfólkunum at skipa seg í fakfeløg. Feløg við álitisfólkum sum sínum longda armi úti á arbeiðsplássunum. |
With this, the foundation stone was laid for the system of cooperation and trust representatives that today characterizes the labour market in our part of the world. | BLARK_translated | Við hesum varð grundarsteinurin lagdur undir samstarv- og álitisfólkaskipanina, sum í dag eyðkennir arbeiðsmarknaðin í okkara parti av heiminum. |
Looking at the course historically, the primary task of the shop stewards originally was to act as the union’s supervisors. They were to ensure that laws and agreements were observed in matters concerning employees. | BLARK_translated | Hyggja vit at gongdini søguliga, so var fremsta uppgávan hjá álitisfólkunum upprunaliga, at vera eftirlitsfólk hjá fakfelagnum. Tey skuldu ansa eftir, at lógir og sáttmálar vórðu hildin í starvsfólkamálum. |
Later the role of the trusted representatives is expanded. They have been given more independent negotiation powers. | BLARK_translated | Seinni er leikluturin hjá álitisfólkunum víðkaður. Tey hava fingið meira sjálvstøðugar samráðingarheimildir. |
In addition to the supervisory task, cooperation with management has become more of a focus. | BLARK_translated | Afturat eftirlitsuppgávuni er samstarvið við leiðsluna komið meira í fokus. |
The task of the union representatives is, among other things, to work for the best possible relations between the employees and management. According to the agreement, management must involve the union representatives in the consultations when significant changes occur at the workplace. | BLARK_translated | Uppgávan hjá álitisfólkunum er soleiðis m.a. at virka fyri best møguligum viðurskiftum millum starvsfólkini og leiðsluna. Sambært sáttmálanum skal leiðslan taka álitisfólkini við í ráðleggingina, tá avgerandi broytingar henda á arbeiðsplássinum. |
In addition, most collective agreements, including those of the Civil Servants’ Union, contain provisions on cooperation committees, where shop stewards and deputy shop stewards sit together with representatives of management. | BLARK_translated | Harafturat hava flestu sáttmálar, m.a. teir hjá Starvsmannafelagnum, ásetingar um samstarvsnevndir, har álitisfólk og varaálitisfólk sita, saman við umboðum fyri leiðsluna. |
The cooperation board must have insight into all matters concerning the institution, and management must seek advice from the cooperation board before decisions are made. | BLARK_translated | Samstarvsnevndin skal hava innlit í øll viðskifti sum viðkoma stovninum, og leiðslan skal søkja sær ráð hjá samstarvsnevndini, áðrenn avgerðir verða tiknar. |
Some public institutions also have similar staff representation in their management. Examples of this are the board of the Faroese Broadcasting Corporation and the board of the University of the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Summir almennir stovnar hava eisini líknandi starvsfólkaumboðan í leiðsluni. Dømi um hetta eru stýrið fyri Kringvarp Føroya og stýrið fyri Fróðskaparsetrið. |
This duty is carried out by the elected safety representatives who, together with management, staff safety groups and committees. Where a shop steward is elected, this person can at the same time be a safety representative. If there are several shop stewards in the same area, they can choose a safety representative amo... | BLARK_translated | Hesin rættur verður útintur gjøgnum tey valdu trygdarumboðini, sum, saman við leiðsluni, manna trygdarbólkar og nevndir. Har eitt álitisfólk er valt, kann hetta samstundis vera trygdarumboð. Eru fleiri álitisfólk á sama øki, ja so kunnu hesi sínámillum velja eitt trygdarumboð. |
In the Faroese labour market, some agreements — for example those of the Civil Servants’ Association — contain direct provisions that employees must be informed and consulted when significant changes are made at the workplace. | BLARK_translated | Á føroyska arbeiðsmarknaðinum hava summir sáttmálar – t.d. teir hjá Starvsmannafelagnum – beinleiðis ásetingar um, at starvsfólkini skulu verða kunnað og tikin við uppá ráð, tá ið avgerandi broytingar verða framdar á arbeiðsplássinum. |
The main principle of consultation and participation is also reflected in the country’s staff policy, which applies to institutions under the country. | BLARK_translated | Meginreglan um hoyring og medávirkan sæst eisini aftur í starvsfólkapolitikki landsins, sum er galdandi fyri stovnar undir landinum. |
This policy emphasizes the importance of cooperation when management makes decisions that can decisively affect working conditions. | BLARK_translated | Hesin politikkur undirstrikar týdningin av samstarvi, tá leiðslan tekur avgerðir, ið kunnu ávirka arbeiðsviðurskiftini avgerandi. |
The policy, which undoubtedly reflects the thinking behind the contractual provisions, states among other things that: | BLARK_translated | Politikkurin, sum ivaleyst speglar hugsanina aftanfyri sáttmálaásetingarnar, staðfestir m.a. at: |
in good time so that the views and proposals of the staff can be taken into account in the basis for the decision before the decision is finally confirmed | BLARK_translated | í so góðari tíð, at sjónarmið og uppskot hjá starvsfólkunum kunnu vera tikin við í avgerðargrundarlagið, áðrenn avgerðin verður endaliga staðfest |
In some places this is stipulated in collective agreements. In some places in law. Often both. | BLARK_translated | Summastaðni er hetta ásett í kollektivum sáttmálum. Summastaðni í lóg. Ofta bæði. |
In some countries it is common to have fairly detailed agreements between the parties in the labour market, which specify how cooperation in the workplace should be. In Denmark such agreements exist for employees of both the state and the municipalities. | BLARK_translated | Í summum londum er vanligt við rættiliga ítøkiligum avtalum millum partarnar á arbeiðsmarknaðinum, sum útgreina hvussu samstarvið á arbeiðsplássinum skal vera. Í Danmark eru slíkar avtalur bæði fyri starvsfólk hjá landi og kommunum. |
This is about the so-called minimum legislation, which establishes certain public rights. The treaties can then add to them. This very legislation does not exist in the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Talan er um sokallaða minstulóggávu, sum ásetir nøkur almenn rættindi. Sáttmálarnir kunnu so leggja afturat. Júst hendan lóggáva er ikki í Føroyum. |
In the morning Rasmus Willig, a sociologist from RUC, Roskilde University, gave a lecture under the title "Disarmed Critique." In the afternoon Annemi Lund Larsen, a nurse and researcher, reflected on the difficulties of using freedom of speech in a small country like the Faroe Islands. | BLARK_translated | Fyrrapartin hevði Rasmus Willig, sosiologur frá RUC, Roskilde Universitet, fyrilestur undir yvirskriftini Afvæbnet kritik. Seinnapartin hugleiddi Annemi Lund Larsen, sjúkrarøktarfrøðingur og granskari, um trupulleikarnar við at nýta talufrælsið í einum lítlum landi sum Føroyum. |
About every third member of the Civil Servants’ Association who works for the state works reduced hours. 31.5%, or 307 employees, work reduced hours, according to an analysis the union has made of salary statistics for members who work at state institutions. | BLARK_translated | Umleið triði hvør limir í Starvsmannafelagnum, sum arbeiðir hjá landinum, arbeiðir niðursetta tíð. 31,5 %, ella 307 starvsfólk, arbeiða niðursetta tíð, vísir ein útgreining, sum felagið hevur gjørt av lønarhagtølum yvir limir, sum arbeiða á landsins stovnum. |
Of those who work reduced hours, the vast majority are women, almost 90%. Even when taking into account that two-thirds of the total number of employees in the sector are women, the survey shows that women are overrepresented when it comes to part-time employment. Almost 43% of the female employees who work for the sta... | BLARK_translated | Av teimum, sum arbeiða niðursetta tíð, eru nógv flest kvinnur, nærum 90 %. Eisini tá fyrivarni verður tikið fyri, at 2/3 av samlaða limatalinum á økinum eru kvinnur, vísir uppgerðin, at kvinnurnar eru yvirumboðaðar, tá talan er um parttíðar setanir. Nærum 43 % av kvinnuligu limunum, sum arbeiða hjá landinum, eru í part... |

The recurring message was that there will be great reforms — societal, financial and technical. Reforms that will pose major challenges for the professional fields in the future. | BLARK_translated | Afturvendandi boðskapurin var, at stóran rembingar henda – samfelagsligar, fíggjarligar og tekniskar. Rembingar sum fara at geva fakfeløgunum stórar avbjóðingar í framtíðini. |

Stefan Ólavsson, a professor at the University of Iceland, described a public labor market that faces major challenges. He spoke about the development in the Western world, where globalization, neoliberalism and internationalization have put the welfare state under pressure. | BLARK_translated | Stefan Ólavsson, professari við Háskúla Islands, greiddi frá einum almennum arbeiðsmarknaði, sum stendur fyri stórum avbjóðingum. Hann segði frá gongdini í vesturheiminum, har globalisering, neoliberalisma og alheimsgerð, hava sett vælferðarsamfelagið undir trýst. |
About how market forces have become stronger, while trade unions have weakened in several countries, with members having left the unions. | BLARK_translated | Um hvussu marknaðarkreftirnar eru vorðnar sterkari, samstundis sum fakfeløgini eru viknað í fleiri londum, við tað at limir hava tikið seg úr feløgunum. |
He explained how the job security of the employees under this system has been weakened, because many have to live with temporary appointments and reduced working hours — against their wishes. | BLARK_translated | Hann greiddi frá hvussu setanartrygdin hjá starvsfólkunum undir hesi skipan er viknað, tí nógv mugu liva við fyribilssetanum og niðursettari arbeiðstíð – ímóti sínum ynski. |
He pointed out that although there is a widespread popular demand for tax cuts, which has put pressure on public coffers, there is still a large majority that wants a welfare society. A society with publicly funded core services, for example in health, education and the public sector. Services that cost tax kroner. | BLARK_translated | Hann vísti á, at hóast tað nógvastaðni er eitt fólksligt krav um skattalætta, sum hevur lagt trýst á almennu kassarnar, so er tað tó framhaldandi er ein stórur meiriluti, sum ynskir eitt vælferðarsamfelag. Eitt samfelag við alment fíggjaðum kjarnutænastum t.d. innan heilsu, skúla- og almannaøkið. Tænastur, sum kosta sk... |
He believed that it is difficult to predict the future. He could, however, confirm that the political system is facing a major challenge, and spoke of an 'existential political crisis' with political upheavals like those we have seen in the USA and elsewhere. | BLARK_translated | Hann helt, at tað er ilt at spáa um framtíðina. Hann kundi tó staðfesta, at politiska skipanin stendur fyri eini stórari avbjóðing, og tosaði um eina 'eksistensiella politiska kreppu' við politiskum rembingum, sum vit hava sæð í USA og aðrastaðni. |
Robert Farestveit, an economist from the Icelandic LO, explained that we are in a time of technical upheaval. | BLARK_translated | Robert Farestveit, búskaparfrøðingur frá íslendska LO, greiddi frá, at vit eru í eini tekniskari kollveltingartíð. |
Automation and technological development happen so quickly that it is difficult to imagine the future. | BLARK_translated | Automatiseringin og tekniska menningin hendir so skjótt, at tað er ringt at ímynda sær framtíðina. |
“Automation is larger and can affect more jobs than we dare imagine,” Farestveit said, stressing that in Iceland alone perhaps a hundred thousand jobs may be in the ‘risk zone,’ as he called it. | BLARK_translated | Automatiseringin er størri og kann ávirka fleiri størv, enn vit duga at ímynda okkum, segði Farestveit, sum róði framundir, at bara í Íslandi kunnu kanska hundrað túsund størv vera i 'riskzonen', sum hann kallaði tað. |
Governments and the labour market must be aware of the threats, because only in that way can they prepare and make plans that meet the major challenges, says the economist. | BLARK_translated | Stjórnirnar og arbeiðsmarknaðurin mugu vera tilvitað um hóttanirnar, tí bara á tann hátt kunnu tey fyrireika seg og leggja ætlanir, ið møta stóru avbjóðingunum, sigur økonomurin. |
According to Farestveit there are — and will be — positions that are characterized by routine. | BLARK_translated | Sambært Farestveit eru og vera tað størv, sum eru merkt av rutinu, |
which primarily will be threatened. These can be jobs in office work, production, or in the transport sector. On the other hand there are jobs that require care, e.g., in healthcare, that will not be so easy to automate. | BLARK_translated | sum fyrst og fremst fara at standa fyri skotum. Tað kunnu vera størv í skrivstovuyrkinum, framleiðslu- ella í flutningsliðinum. Harafturímóti eru størv, sum krevja servitan, t.d. innan heilsuverkið, sum ikki verða so løtt at automatisera. |
“Which work strategy should we choose, then?” asked the economist. And he had no final answer to that. | BLARK_translated | Hvørja arbeiðsstrategi skulu vit so velja, spurdi búskaparfrøðingurin. Og har hevði hann einki endaligt svar. |
Without it being about preparing well and making plans. | BLARK_translated | Uttan, at tað snýr seg um at fyrireika seg væl og leggja ætlanir. |
New industries and a diversified economy can be a way forward. There is a need for innovation, new foundations to stand on, Farestveit said. | BLARK_translated | Nýggjar vinnur og fjøltáttað vinnulív kunnu vera ein vegur fram. Tað er tørvur á nýskapan, nýggjum beinum at standa á, helt Farestveit. |
At the conference in Siglufjörður the trade union representatives from Denmark, Sweden and the Faroe Islands spoke about how they assess the challenges and how we can best meet them. | BLARK_translated | Á ráðstevnuni í Siglufirði søgdu fakfelagsumboðini úr Danmark, Svøríki og Føroyum frá, hvussu tey meta avbjóðingarnar, og hvussu vit best kunnu møta teimum. |
