The FOA public services union has welcomed the fact that as a result of an agreement negotiated in 2007 more full-time jobs have been made available for part-time workers. The union says that some 2,300 health and social workers have moved from part-time to full-time work. The FOA is urging municipal and regional authorities to do more to encourage the move the full-time hours where employees want to do so.
