Background – Legislative Changes

As of January 1, 2024, amendments to Section 7-1 of the Working Environment Act have entered into force:

• A Working Environment Committee (AMU) must be established in enterprises with at least 30 employees, or in those with 10–30 employees if requested by either party.
• Where working conditions warrant it, the Norwegian Labour Inspection Authority may require enterprises with fewer than 30 employees to establish a committee.
