A pay rise for the region’s lowest paid is on its way to reality in Västra Götaland.
The proposal comes from the new red-green government
– There are people who are below 26,000, the surrounding staff, says Maria Adrell (V), regional councilor and chairman of the personnel committee in Västra Götaland.
It is, for example, janitors, janitors and transport personnel who can receive a salary increase.
But the opposition thinks it is the wrong priority. This is how Lars Holmin (M) writes:
“Skill supply is one of our biggest concerns, and especially among nurses and midwives. From a moderate point of view, we therefore maintain that investment is primarily needed in, and a good salary development for, the professional categories where there is a shortage. This also applies to the employees who take the work shifts where staffing is particularly problematic. This leads us to believe that the investment that the S management wants to make, on completely different professional categories, is in the wrong direction.”
