Vårdförbundet has issued a warning about an extended overtime blockade affecting several municipalities across Sweden, including Örebro.

The blockade, an escalation from a prior action initiated three weeks ago covering all regions, now also impacts specific community services such as school healthcare and home nursing.

Municipalities have been given a two-week notice to prepare for the blockade, set to commence on May 20. Nurses and school nurses in particular are among the professionals affected by this measure, aimed at halting overtime work among the union's members.
