Norway – Hotel and Restaurant Strike
An ongoing nationwide hotel and restaurant workers’ strike in Norway is likely to intensify in the coming days with an additional 2,500 workers to join the protest action from 0800 April 30. The labor action has forced at least 363 hotels and restaurants across Norway to close outright, including many in Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim, and Stavanger. While many hotels plan to close for the duration of the strike, some hotel chains have made contingency plans to remain open with minimal services or are relocating guests.
