The employee side, including YTF , had several proposals that they believe would be beneficial to both parties, but which NHO was not willing to accommodate.

– We are disappointed that NHO did not want to modernize the senior regulations to include a more comprehensive life-stage policy, which we see as important for our members' working lives, says Martinsen.

It was agreed to establish a committee to review the competence provisions in the agreement, with the goal of making them more up-to-date and user-friendly.
