It points out that the average salary for a nurse in the sector is several thousand SEK less than that of an industrial worker, while working hours also make the job less attractive with frequent weekend service and split shifts. The sector has a high proportion of hourly-paid and temporary employment workers with 60% working part time. Kommunal wants legislation to provide a right to work full time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM5\">English: http:\u002F\u002Fwww.epsu.org\u002Fcob\u002F415\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM5\"> \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"discreet\">\u003Cem>This article was published in the Collective Bargaining Newsletter.
