7 September 2022 at 23:54 The danger of a postal strike is over The danger of a postal strike has been over after LO Stat and the employers’ organization Spekter reached an agreement on a new wage agreement for 10,000 postal employees just before the mediation deadline expired at midnight. – Spekter and Posten Norge AS are satisfied that, with the assistance of the Ombudsman, we have reached an agreement with LO Stat/Fagforbundet in this year’s salary settlement. In this way, we avoid that Posten’s customers are affected by strikes that could have significantly reduced postal services, says Spekter’s managing director Anne-Kari Bratten. Spekter states that the agreement involves “a somewhat higher financial salary compensation” than what was agreed in the negotiations between Posten Norge AS and the Trade Union. It is also agreed that Posten Norge AS and Fagforbundet Post og finans will, until the next main settlement in 2024, carry out joint work to, among other things, review and assess how the position structure and salary system can contribute to securing the necessary competence and make it possible to maintain Posten’s competitiveness.
