How are the regulations developed?
Regulatory development is pursued in close collaboration with the parties in the industry – the companies and the unions. The Regulatory Forum serves as a key arena in that work.
A tripartite body chaired by Havtil, this forum brings together representatives for employees, employers and government several times a year. Changes to the regulations are often initiated there.
Since the industry constantly develops innovatory ways of conducting its operations, the authorities must keep abreast and ensure that the regulations are adapted to such new solutions.
The regulations are updated annually to ensure they are tailored to relevant challenges at all times.
Where can you find the regulations?
Havtil’s regulations are available in Norwegian and English at havtil.no.
