Breach in salary negotiations for hairdressers

Working life: – The minimum wage level for hairdressers is so low that many hairdressers have problems getting mortgages, says the trade union’s negotiation leader Ingunn Reistad Jacobsen in a press release on the night of Wednesday.

The wage settlement covers over 1,200 hairdressers. Now the settlement goes to mediation.

Reistad Jacobsen says that the industry is doing well, but that hairdressers’ wages have lagged behind in recent years.

– We expected more from the employer, she says.
