Municipalities insist that lump sum payments do not cover all costs brought about by the wage reform
- LO Kommune and YS Kommune broke off wage negotiations with KS on April 30, 2025, risking a strike in the municipal sector.
- The conflict arose because LO and YS rejected KS’s proposed 4.4 percent wage increase framework, which Unio and Akademikerne had accepted.
- Negotiations remain difficult amid high food prices, high interest rates, and increased work pressure on municipal employees.
- Trond Ellefsen from YS stated they find the offer "impossible to accept," while LO leader Mette Nord warned of a strike if mediation fails.
- The stalled talks now proceed to mediation, highlighting the economic challenges in the municipal sector and the demand for real wage growth.
