Efling negotiations continue as staffing levels in nursing homes remain disputed in Iceland

Negotiations between Efling, a workers’ union, and the Association of Welfare Service Companies are still ongoing and are expected to continue late into the evening if necessary, according to Sólveig Anna Jónsdóttir, chair of Efling. The discussions were postponed around eight o’clock last night. The core of the dispute revolves around staffing levels in nursing homes rather than pay and conditions.
