The Prime Minister announced that she supports an increase in the monthly salary for the four groups of public workers. The salary increase should benefit around 200,000 people in Denmark.
- It is not up to the prime minister or the government to decide which groups of public workers should receive an increase in salary. That’s why the Prime Minister will call soon for tripartite negotiations.
- A tripartite negotiation (trepartsforhandling) is a negotiation between three parties: the government, the trade unions, and the associations of employers. While the Prime Minister cannot decide alone, she can definitely lobby during the negotiations.
