Kommunal and IF Metall join the LAS agreement

On Friday it became clear that the two largest LO unions, IF Metall and Kommunal, will now join the agreement on LAS and restructuring already agreed by the Confederation of Swedish Enterprise and PTK. IF Metall and Kommunal represent more than half of LO's members and it is now hoped that more LO unions will also choose to join the agreement.
