The parties agree on the goal of promoting the health of the employees of the City of Reykjavík and their working environment. The parties agree that mutual benefits for the employees and the workplace of the City of Reykjavík can be achieved through a change in the organization of working hours.
The parties agree that clear incentives will be promoted for employees to develop in their work, enhance their professionalism, and improve the city's service to the public.
The parties agree to review and revise the evaluation system for assessing the competence of employees in order to develop and, where appropriate, expand the basis for competence-based pay.
2. Scope of the agreement
This agreement covers all work of employees, general and specialized, specified in this agreement and performed at the institutions of the City of Reykjavík, unless otherwise specifically agreed.
3. Right of first refusal
The City of Reykjavík undertakes to give employees who are members of Efling union priority for all general labor work, when required and members are offered who are fully qualified for the work in question.
The City of Reykjavík always has a free choice as to which member of Efling union it hires. Now the City of Reykjavík wants to hire a person who is not a member of Efling union, and the union shall then be obliged to grant that person entry if he applies for it and it does not conflict with the union's articles of association.
4. Further employee rights
An employee who has acquired additional rights to purchase or benefits before the entry into force of this agreement, other than those provided for in the agreement, shall retain them.
If a dispute arises regarding rights issues pursuant to Article 0.4.1 and it cannot be resolved at the employee's workplace, the matter shall be referred to the parties' collaboration committee for resolution, cf. Chapter 16 of this agreement.
5. New professions
If new professions arise during the term of the agreement that are not provided for in this agreement or do not have a clear parallel in the applicable wage rates, negotiations shall be initiated regarding the wages and conditions of Efling union members in the profession.
Salaries shall increase as follows, unless otherwise provided in the salary tables attached to this agreement. The monthly salary of a full-time employee shall be paid according to the attached salary tables in Appendix XVII, where monthly salaries shall be subject to the following proportional increases with a minimum increase in króna during the term of the agreement. Monthly salaries shall mean fixed monthly salaries for daytime work.
April 1, 2025 3.50% or 23,750 kr.
April 1, 2026 3.50% or 23,750 kr.
April 1, 20273.50% or ISK 23,750.
Personal allowances undergo the following changes during the contract period:
Fractions from the monthly salary are calculated by dividing the monthly salary by 21.67 and multiplying by the number of calendar days other than Saturdays and Sundays from the beginning or to the end of the working period.
In addition to the monthly salary, other salaries that are included in the job may be paid on a monthly basis. Other salaries may be for regular overtime and work-related stress that cannot be measured in hours. Other salaries may, among other things, replace hourly wages for overtime according to Art. 1.4.
Salary is based on the specific demands that the job places on the employee as assessed in the performance evaluation system of the contracting party, SAMSTARFI. It is assumed that this is an ongoing and stable field of work.
When a new job is created, the collaboration committee shall determine its classification in terms of salary on a provisional basis. When the job has been held for 6 months, it shall be evaluated in the contracting party's job evaluation system and therefore classified in terms of salary in accordance with the evaluation result.
Explanation: If a job evaluation later reveals that a new job has been initially ranked too low in terms of salary, this must be corrected retroactively. If, on the other hand, the job has been initially ranked too high, the employee retains that individual ranking, but the job is ranked based on the evaluation results. An individual ranking that is too high will offset the ranking according to 1.2.2.
Job descriptions must exist for all jobs and are reviewed in annual career development interviews with employees and supervisors.
A job description should include information about all main aspects of the job and a definition of responsibilities and duties, so that it is clear what requirements are made of the employee and what tasks he or she is expected to perform.
If an institution or employee requests a reassessment of a job, the matter shall be sent to the Job Evaluation Committee, cf. the Rules of Procedure of the Job Evaluation Committee (Appendix XI)
Salaries are determined according to the following relationship between job evaluation levels and salary groups:
Connection rule as of June 1, 2017:
Salary = 178 + 0.150 * (rating; rating up to and including 459)

It is expected that each organization/company will present a career development plan for all employees in its human resources work plan to ensure normal career development and lifelong learning of employees in accordance with the City of Reykjavík's human resources policy. An employee who actively participates in a career development plan is entitled to a higher salary than otherwise. The prerequisite for this increase is the employee's confirmed participation in the organization's/company's career development plan. This salary may change.
Work experience is assessed in the following manner:
After 1 year of employment with the City of Reykjavík, ranking one step higher than usual.
After 3 years working for the City of Reykjavík, ranking one step higher than usual.
After 5 years working for the City of Reykjavík, ranking one step higher than usual.

If an employee has received personal allowance due to active participation in an institution's professional development plan but no longer performs that duty without legitimate reasons, he or she will lose the personal allowance he or she has received. Before this can happen, the supervisor must inform the employee that he or she will lose this right if he or she does not improve his or her performance according to the professional development plan and must explain to the employee how he or she can improve. The employee may request that a shop steward be present at such a meeting. The department may implement a professional development plan in accordance with Attachment IV on professional recognition and shorter vocational training at upper secondary school level.
An employee's education that is useful in the job and exceeds the basic requirements of the job shall be assessed as a personal contribution as follows:
For work-related studies or courses tailored to the needs of the City of Reykjavík, a maximum of 1 level is awarded. The condition for this is that the studies are taught by educational providers that have received recognition according to the Act on Secondary Education No. 27/2010 and the Act on Upper Secondary Schools No. 92/2008.
For formal studies at the secondary school level, a maximum of 1 level is required.
For every 60 ECTS credits in university studies in a professional field, 1 level is awarded.
Salary step/personal allowance, see article 1.1.1, according to the above, is calculated on the basic step of the salary group in the salary table, see salary tables in the attached document. Personal allowance according to this article is a maximum of 3 steps.
An employee's education will be assessed starting at the beginning of the following month after they have submitted satisfactory documentation about their studies. When assessing studies, credits are never counted twice.
A committee consisting of one representative from each contracting party shall have oversight and decision-making authority over the evaluation of courses and other training that may be considered for inclusion in this article. It shall focus on training that can be considered useful to employees in their work.

An employee's competence shall be assessed based on two competence factors, work ambition and flexibility. Work ambition refers to how an employee performs their job and flexibility refers to the employee's adaptability. Each factor can increase an employee's salary by a maximum of two salary groups. Competency pay can be a maximum of four salary groups. See Appendix VI to this collective agreement.
The department manager is responsible for the implementation in his/her field. Competency-based pay is based on the employee being considered to possess greater competence than the job requires in the department manager's opinion.
are based on the success of an employee or group of employees in achieving specific goals of a department or organization/company according to a work plan. Success shall be assessed according to predetermined rules set by a collaboration committee. An organization/company that intends to introduce performance pay must define goals and performance measures in a work plan. Goals refer to, for example, cost reduction, improved service or improved work processes. The organization/company's performance measures shall be clear and realistic in relation to the planned activities. Employees shall be informed in advance of what the goals and measures are and how they will be rewarded for achieving specific results. A decision on performance-based pay may apply to the organization/company as a whole or in part. Performance pay shall be in the form of a lump sum to an employee/group of employees at the end of the measurement period and shall be based on the achievement of the set goals. The department manager assesses whether the goals have been achieved and is responsible for implementation.

For time spent on piecework, hourly wages are paid according to the results of the job evaluation, plus individual wages. The evaluation is based on the work of a cleaning technician, which is currently rated at 276 points in the job evaluation. A 12% surcharge is then paid for piecework at a work rate of 130, cf. Art. 1.7.4.1. In addition, an 8% surcharge for a meal break, as the employee does not take a meal break during working hours. A total of 20% surcharge.

Cleaning work performed between 08:00 and 17:00 from Monday to Friday on a part-time basis or more may be paid as a monthly wage, as they will not, by their nature, be performed on a piece-rate basis
Overtime work/monthly wages are when work is done according to a job or task description during agreed working hours and there is no requirement for increased productivity, as in time-based piecework. If it is not possible to complete a task according to a job or task description within the agreed working hours, i.e. at a normal work pace, the employee is not obliged to complete the task. If, however, a supervisor demands that a task be completed within the agreed working hours, but it is clear that this will not be done unless at an increased work pace, as in the case of time-based piecework, payment for the work must be made in accordance with the provisions of Article 1.7.1.3.
The workweek of a full-time employee is 36 active working hours.
Expansion and agreement
Work may be organized in a manner other than that described in this section by agreement between the employees and the institution's management and with the written consent of the contracting parties.

The preparation time for employees with departmental supervision in kindergartens is 8 hours per week based on full-time work, cf. protocol no. 6.
When other employees in kindergartens are assigned tasks that require preparation, those employees shall be given 1 to 2 hours, cf. protocol no. 6.
About working hours in institutions that do not operate full-time throughout the year
Employees employed at primary schools, kindergartens and after-school centers that do not operate full-time throughout the year shall have a 36-hour weekly work obligation spread over the year, if full-time, but otherwise pro rata. The weekly work obligation based on full-time employment shall never exceed 39 hours. At the beginning of each school year, the supervisor, in consultation with the employees, shall plan how work is to be delivered between periods and shall draw up a separate working time schedule.

If the call ends before 3 hours have passed from the end of the daily work, overtime shall be paid for the time from the end of the daily work to the end of the call.
If a call-out begins during the period 00:00 - 08:00 from Monday to Friday, 17:00 - 24:00 on Friday or on public or special holidays according to Art. 2.1.4.1 and Art. 2.1.4.2, overtime pay shall be paid for at least 4 hours unless regular working hours begin within 3 and 1/2 hours from the start of the call-out, in which case 1/2 hour shall be paid in addition to the time worked.
If a call that disturbs an employee's peace and quiet between 00:00 and 06:00 is cancelled, the employee shall be paid overtime pay for one hour.
2.3.2.1
Staff meetings are exempt from the rule on payment for call-out according to Art. 2.3.2.1, as the manager must organize staff meetings at least 3 months in advance, otherwise Art. 2.3.2.1 applies. Overtime shall be paid for each meeting held outside daytime working hours, for a minimum of 2 hours, otherwise for the time the meeting lasts. This time may be added for part-time employees to fulfill work obligations.
If an employee has, by law or contract, a shorter weekly work obligation than is provided for in Article 11, work in excess of this obligation shall be paid as follows:
Irregular work in excess of the reduced work obligation or continuous work for less than one month is paid at the rate paid for overtime.
Regular work by day workers within the daytime working hours, for one month or more, up to the work obligation based on full-time work, is paid as a calculated percentage of the monthly salary, provided that the employee has been informed of this before the work began. The same applies to regular work by shift workers, provided the same conditions are met, regardless of when in the day the work is performed.
Therefore, institutions are directed to establish more detailed rules regarding overtime and when it is appropriate to discuss a review of the work ratio, provided that overtime is regular or foreseen.
All overtime shall be paid in a lump sum for each month or every thirty days. The same applies to payment for overtime during a period of illness according to the rules on overtime payments during illness.
If overtime work away from a fixed workplace is not paid according to the time sheet, such payment shall be negotiated in advance with the employee in question.
When an employee takes care of clients while traveling, each working day shall be calculated as up to 12 hours.

If an employee goes on a trip (with a client) at the request of his superior on his day off, he shall be compensated with another day off or overtime pay.
An employee may, by agreement with the employer, accumulate days off for overtime in such a way that overtime hours are accumulated and taken during the daytime working period, but the overtime bonus is paid with the next regular payment. There must be an agreement on taking the leave and it must be organized in such a way as to cause the least possible disruption to the organization's operations. Leave as described above, due to the preceding calendar year, which has not been used before April 15 of each year, or upon termination of employment, shall be paid at the employee's daytime rate with the next regular payment.
When an employee leaves on the initiative of and on behalf of the employer, payments for such inconvenience shall be made in the following manner:

This leave shall be granted proportionally based on the work ratio and working hours. On-call leave is a maximum of 80 hours due to clause 2.5.4 even if the on-call hours are more than 1200. An effort shall be made to take on-call leave in parallel with the accrual and as soon as possible.
Temporary provision: Employees who, prior to the entry into force of the agreement on 1 April 1997, had longer holidays, up to 96 compulsory working hours for every 1440 hours, shall retain this during their continuous employment.
Hours worked on standby shifts shall not be deducted when calculating annual standby hours, cf. Article 2.4.4.
Leave according to Article 2.4.4 may be granted at any time of the year, but it may not be transferred between years or added to summer leave. It is permissible to negotiate with the employee for payment in lieu of leave according to Article 2.4.4. This payment is based on hourly wages for daytime work according to Article 1.3.1.
The parties may agree on a different arrangement for payment for on-call shifts than those set out above. For example, it is permissible to agree on a specific number of hours for on-call shifts regardless of the duration. If on-call shifts other than those referred to in Article 2.4.1 are agreed, it shall be agreed, taking into account the frequency of calls and the duration of calls during a given reference period, that on-call shifts shall not be cancelled in part or in full during calls.
The decision to take up and end standby shifts must be made and communicated to employees at least two weeks in advance.
Those who work regular shifts shall receive a bonus for work performed during the time that falls outside the normal daytime working period according to Article 2.2.1.
See the definition of shift worker in Article 2.1.5.3
Where regular shifts are used, a draft shift schedule, showing the expected working hours of each employee, shall be submitted six weeks before it takes effect. The final shift schedule shall be submitted one month before the first shift under the schedule begins, unless an agreement is reached with the employees for a shorter period.
If the organization's operations require a change to the shift schedule, it must be made with the employee's consent. If the shift schedule is changed with less than 24 hours' notice, the employee in question shall be paid a change fee of 2% of the monthly salary in each salary group and step. If the notice is 24–168 hours (one week), a change fee of 1.3% of the monthly salary in each salary group and step shall be paid. This only refers to a change to a planned shift and not to an extra shift.
If an employee takes a shift in excess of work obligation, with less than 24 hours' notice during the period 17:00-24:00 on Fridays, 24:00-08:00 Monday to Friday, 00:00-24:00 Saturdays, Sundays and special holidays, cf. Art. 2.1.4.2 based on an 8-hour shift, a change fee of 1.3% of the monthly salary in each salary group and step shall be paid and prorated for longer or shorter shifts.
When drawing up a shift schedule, care must be taken to ensure that holiday work is divided equally among employees.
As a rule, shifts shall be between 4 and 10 hours. Other shift lengths may be negotiated, cf. Article 2.1.2.
At least 8 hours must elapse between shifts, cf. Article 2.6.3.1. regarding rest periods.
Where social time is necessary during shift changes, it shall be incorporated into regular working hours.
Those who work shifts shall be given 2 consecutive days off each week, with night breaks occurring before and after the days off. Employees may agree that the days off shall be granted separately, but such that night breaks occur before and after the days off or not less than 36 hours continuously for each day. In consultation with the employee and the union, days off may be transferred between weeks.
This only refers to scheduled shifts within the employee's work schedule and not extra shifts.
The annual work obligation of shift workers who work regular shifts shall generally be the same as that of day workers. The work obligation of shift workers is therefore reduced by 7.2 working hours compared to full-time work due to special holidays and major holidays, according to Art. 2.1.4.2, which fall on Monday to Friday with the exception of Christmas Eve and New Year's Day, which shall be 3.6 hours for each day compared to full-time work. As a rule, a reduction in work hours due to special holidays shall be taken out within the period of the shift record. If an employee wishes to accumulate work hours due to special holidays and major holidays, he shall notify his superior of this before submitting the shift record when accrual occurs. The superior is obliged to comply with the employee's wishes, as this is relevant for the activities of the institution. In cases where work shifts due to special holidays and major holidays are moved between months, this must be kept under control and employees informed regularly. Work that falls on special holidays and major holidays must also be paid with a surcharge according to Art. 1.5.1.
Regular shifts refer to shifts that are scheduled every day, including special holidays and major holidays. In cases where an institution is closed on a special holiday or major holiday, an employee who is on duty that day according to the scheduled shift schedule will receive time off equal to the shift in lieu of reduced work obligations and taking into account the length of the shift.
The working hours of shift workers outside the daytime working hours according to the planned shift schedule and within the working hours obligation have different weights when calculating the work schedule. Working hours that are paid with a 33.33% and 55% shift load according to Article 1.5.1 have a weight of 1.05, so that for every 60 minutes 63 minutes are calculated. Working hours that are paid with a 65% and 75% shift load according to Article 1.5.1 have a weight of 1.2, so that for every 60 minutes 72 minutes are calculated. Notwithstanding the above, the work schedule of a full-time employee shall never fall below 32 working hours per week on average (on average during the pay period) and proportionally based on working hours and work ratio.
Mandatory working hours paid with 120% shift allowance according to Art. 1.6.1 have a weight of 1.05 in the period 08:00-24:00 and a weight of 1.2 in the period 00:00-08:00. Mandatory working hours paid with 165% shift allowance have a weight of 1.20.
Watch motivation
Employees who work shifts and meet the requirements of the article are paid a shift incentive as follows. The shift incentive is paid as a percentage of the monthly salary paid due to diversity and the number of shifts in the last three settlement periods according to planned shifts within the working hours obligation. The minimum number of working hours during that period outside the daytime working hours (at 33.33%, 55%, 65% and 75% load) is 126 working hours. Shifts are classified into four types; day shifts, evening shifts (33.33% load), night shifts on weekdays (65% load) and weekend shifts (55% and 75% load). The minimum number of working hours in each type of shift shall be 45 working hours. An employee must work shifts in two to four types of shifts, 14 times or more on average during the settlement period in order to benefit from the shift incentive.
When employees are employed, shift incentives are calculated for one settlement period during the first and second months of employment, so that the minimum number of hours outside daytime working hours is 42 and the minimum number of mandatory hours in each type of shift is 15. After three months of employment, shift incentives are calculated according to paragraph 1. The same applies when changes in the employment ratio of 40% or more are agreed, either in terms of increase or decrease.
The percentage of shift incentives is based on the following table.
Shift incentive is calculated based on the last three settlement periods. Settlement period refers to the settlement period of variable wages at the workplace. Shift incentive paid on April 1 is therefore based on the settlement period for payment in the payment of wages on February 1, March 1 and April 1, and shift incentive paid on May 1 is based on the pay periods for payment on March 1, April 1 and May 1.
Employees who work regular shift work shall be exempt from night shifts, if they so wish, once they have reached the age of 55. However, shift pay is only paid for hours worked that fall outside the daytime working period.
With regard to scope, rest periods, work breaks and more, reference is made to the agreement between ASÍ, BHM, BSRB and KÍ and the State Negotiating Committee, the City of Reykjavík and the Local Government Wage Committee, dated 23 January 1997 on certain aspects concerning the organisation of working hours, which is attached to this collective agreement as an attachment and is considered a part thereof. (Attachment XII)
In this connection, reference is also made to the guidelines of the Consultative Committee on the organization of working hours, dated 16 February 2001. This Consultative Committee is appointed in accordance with Article 14 of the aforementioned agreement and is also tasked with discussing disputes that may arise due to the issues discussed therein.
Daily rest period - About the organization of working hours.
Working hours shall be arranged so that in a 24-hour period, calculated from the planned/routine start of the employee's working day, the employee receives at least 11 hours of uninterrupted rest. Where applicable, the daily rest period shall extend from 23:00 to 06:00.
It is not permitted to organize work so that working hours in a 24-hour period exceed 13 hours.
Scheduled or routine start of the working day - explanation: If the planned start of the working day is, for example, 8:00, that time limit shall be used. If, on the other hand, an employee has fixed working hours that begin, for example, 20:00, the 24-hour period shall be used for that time limit. In shift work, it is normal to use the start of the working day as the marked working day on the shift schedule. If it is not a marked working day, for example, an extra shift during a shift break, the start shall be used for the time limit of the last marked working day.
An employee is entitled to a break of at least 15 minutes if their daily working hours exceed 6 hours. Coffee and meal breaks are considered breaks in this context.
Shift rotation. During organized shift rotation, employees' minimum continuous rest period may be shortened to up to 8 hours. This applies, for example, when an employee switches from a morning shift to a night shift according to the shift schedule.
This exemption from the 11-hour minimum rest period, however, does not apply when an employee completes overtime and transfers to a regular shift and vice versa.
Since this is a deviation from the principle of 11 hours of uninterrupted rest, the shift system must be organised in such a way that changes between different types of shifts occur as infrequently as possible during a shift cycle and, as a rule, this deviation does not occur more than once a week. Work must therefore be organised in the most equitable manner possible.
Special circumstances. In special circumstances, it is permitted to shorten the minimum continuous rest period to up to 8 hours and extend the work cycle to up to 16 hours, i.e. in the event of unforeseen events when valuables need to be saved. Furthermore, when the public interest so requires and/or essential health or safety services need to be maintained.
If the authorizations for deviations from the daily rest period according to this section are used, the employee shall receive corresponding rest instead. Immediately following such a work cycle, the employee shall be granted 11 hours of rest at the same rate of pay as he would otherwise have received.
Disruption of operations due to external circumstances. If operations are disrupted due to external circumstances, such as weather or other natural forces, accidents, power outages, breakdowns in machinery or other equipment, or other such unforeseen events, the provisions on minimum daily rest may be waived to the extent necessary to prevent significant damage until regular operations have been resumed. These are unforeseeable events. It is appropriate to call another employee to work to replace the employee who has not had the required rest, if possible.
Weekly rest day.
In each 7-day period, an employee shall be given at least one weekly rest day directly related to the daily rest period, assuming that the week begins on Monday. An employee shall thus be given 35 hours of uninterrupted rest once a week.
As far as possible, the weekly rest day shall be on Sunday and the employee shall be given a day off. However, an institution may, by agreement with its employees, postpone the weekly rest day where special reasons make such a deviation necessary, so that the weekly rest day shall be replaced by two consecutive rest days every two weeks.
If there is a special need to organize work so that the weekly rest day is postponed, the taking of rest days shall be arranged so that two rest days are taken together.
Exemption right
General conditions for the right to take time off. If the manager has assessed that it is urgent for an employee to report to work before the 11-hour minimum rest period has been reached, the right to take time off is created, 1½ hours (during daytime work) for each hour that the rest period is reduced. The accrual of the right to take time off is not limited to whole hours. An employee should not report back to work until after the 11-hour rest period has been completed unless he has been specifically asked to do so. If an employee nevertheless reports before he has reached the minimum rest period, he does not accrue the right to take time off.
Continuous rest interrupted by call-out – Time off entitlement based on longest break. If rest is interrupted once or more times within a 24-hour period based on the employee's planned/routine start of the working day, the amount missing from achieving 11 hours of rest, based on the longest break within a work cycle, shall be compensated for with time off entitlement, 1½ hours (daytime work) for each hour missing up to 11 hours of rest.
Working in excess of 16 hours. In the special exceptional cases where it is absolutely necessary for an employee to work more than 16 hours in one 24-hour period, i.e. out of every 24 hours from the planned/routine start of the employee's working day without achieving 8 hours of uninterrupted rest, the employee shall enjoy similar rights that apply to hospital employees in such circumstances.
Implementation according to the above provision: If an employee has worked a total of more than 16 hours in one 24-hour period, i.e. every 24 hours, based on the planned/routine start of the employee's working day, without achieving 8 hours of uninterrupted rest, the employee shall, without exception, receive 11 hours of uninterrupted rest after work, without deduction from the wages he would otherwise have received. The right to take time off, 1 ½ hours (daytime work), is accrued for each hour worked in excess of 16 hours.
Increased right to take time off due to continuous work exceeding 24 hours. In the special exceptional cases where it is imperative for an employee to work continuously for 24 hours in one day, the employee shall enjoy similar rights that apply to hospital employees in such circumstances.
Implementation according to the above provision: In the special exceptional cases where an employee works a full 24 hours continuously, the right to take time off shall be increased so that each full hour in excess of 24 provides a right to take time off that is 1.8% longer than the right to take time off that the previous hour provided.
Work before a rest day, cf. 2.6. If an employee, according to the decision of the supervisor, works so long before a rest day that 11 hours of rest cannot be achieved based on the usual start of the working day, or shifts (see explanatory box in article 2.6.2.2), the employee shall report correspondingly later at the start of the next regular working day, without deduction from the salary he would otherwise have received, otherwise the right to take time off will accrue, 1½ hours. during daytime work for each hour that the rest is reduced.
Information about time off entitlement. Accumulated time off entitlement shall be shown on a pay slip or in an attendance system and time off entitlement shall be granted in half or full days.
Time off. Time off shall be granted in consultation with the employee, provided that the accumulated time off entitlement is at least four hours and time off shall not be granted in shorter periods than that. Efforts shall be made to grant time off as soon as possible or on a regular basis to prevent time off from accumulating.
Payment of part of the time off entitlement. It is permissible to pay out ½ hour (during daytime work) of every 1½ hours that an employee has earned in time off entitlement, if he so requests.
Settlement upon termination of employment. Upon termination of employment, untaken leave entitlement shall be settled in the same manner as vacation. Leave entitlement does not expire.
Senior managers and others who decide their own working hours.
These parties cannot, by their very nature, acquire the right to take time off, cf. also the scope of the occupational safety and health provisions for them in European Union Directive No. 93/104/EC, Article 17, Section 1, Subsection a, and Article 1, Paragraph 4, of the aforementioned agreement between the social partners dated 23.01.1997.
3. Breaks from work, meals and cafeteria
3.1 Break from work
Employees are permitted to consume food and drink during their work when necessary for the job, and such breaks are part of active working hours.
It is permissible, by agreement between the management of an institution and a simple majority of the employees concerned, to determine daily breaks that are at the discretion of the employees. Their determined length extends the employees' daily presence correspondingly, as such breaks do not count as active working hours.
In institutions where breaks are determined by such an agreement and work is done during the break at the request of the supervisor, it is paid for with overtime pay.
Those individuals and/or work groups who, prior to the entry into force of this agreement, generally received regular payments pursuant to Art. 3.2. of the previous agreement, shall continue to receive comparable payments pursuant to Protocol 2
Employees who work at a fixed workplace shall have access to a canteen as far as possible. A canteen is considered to be a place in this case where hot and cold food, imported or cooked on site, can be served. The type of premises and facilities shall be in accordance with the requirements of the relevant health authorities. Employees shall pay the material cost of the food, but other operating costs shall be paid by the relevant institution.
In workplaces where there are no cafeterias, efforts should be made to ensure that employees have access to a nearby cafeteria run by the employer, or equipment should be provided to transport food to the workplace cafeteria, so that the transportation of food is free of charge for employees.
If food is purchased from a party other than that specified in Article 3.2.2, employees shall pay for comparable food an amount equivalent to the subsistence allowance pursuant to Article 3.2.4.
An employee who does not have access to a canteen but should have it according to Art. 3.2.1, shall be compensated with a meal allowance of ISK 883.82, provided that the employee's daily work obligation is 6 hours or longer.
The amount of child support changes every three months in accordance with the food item of the Consumer Price Index (01 Food and Beverages) with the May 2024 index as the base index (236.6 points) based on sub-indices from 2008.
3.3 Special provisions
Employees who are required to eat with household members or children and assist them in preparing meals shall be exempt from paying for those meals, provided they are not compensated for it in any other way, such as by shorter working hours or payment. Otherwise, employees shall pay the material cost of the food.
An employee who performs his/her work outside the city limits and does not benefit from meal facilities at a fixed workplace according to Article 3.2 shall provide meals at the employer's expense according to Article 5.1.1.
4. Vacation
4.1 Duration of leave
Vacation shall be 30 days (216 hours based on 36 active working hours per week) based on full-time employment. Vacation accrual shall be proportional to the employee's work rate and working hours.
4.2 Holiday pay and holiday allowance
An employee shall receive 13.04% holiday pay for overtime work according to this agreement. If an employee is paid hourly during daytime work, holiday pay will also be paid from daytime wages.
Instead of holiday pay being paid from shift work, employees must keep their average shift work during their holiday over the last 12 months. However, shift work is not paid during public holidays, even if it is taken directly following holiday work.
Holiday pay during the contract period will be as follows:
In the year 202458,000 kr.
In the year 202560,000 kr.
In the year 202662,000 kr.
In the year 202764,000 kr.
On June 1st of each year, an employee who is employed until April 30th of the previous year shall be paid a special lump sum, a holiday bonus, based on full-time work during the previous holiday year. Payment shall be made proportionally based on employment ratio and working hours. If an employee has left work during the holiday year due to age or after at least 3 months (13 weeks) of continuous work during the holiday year, he shall be paid a holiday bonus proportionally based on hours worked and working hours. The same applies if an employee was absent from work due to illness after the institution's payment obligation ends or due to maternity leave of up to 6 months. Holiday bonus is a fixed amount and is not subject to change according to other provisions of the agreement. Holiday bonus does not include holiday pay. Earned holiday bonus shall be settled in parallel with termination of employment.
A part-time employee receives full holiday pay if he works 1504 mandatory working hours during the above period, otherwise pro rata.
4.3 The holiday season
The vacation year is from May 1 to April 30.
4.4 Summer vacation period
The summer vacation period is from May 15 to September 30.
An employee is entitled to 20 days of vacation, of which 15 days are consecutive during the summer vacation period, and up to full vacation at the same time if necessary due to the organization's work.
4.5 Determination of leave
The supervisor decides, in consultation with the employees, when leave shall be granted. The supervisor is obliged to comply with the employees' requests regarding when leave shall be granted, provided that this is possible due to the activities of the institution. The supervisor shall investigate the employees' willingness to take leave. The decision on summer leave shall be made as soon as possible and no later than 31 March and notified to the employee in a verifiable manner, such as in the institution's time registration system, unless special reasons prevent it. Winter leave shall be decided at least one month in advance.
When planning leave for shift workers that is taken continuously, the aim should be that it begins and ends with a regular holiday, unless otherwise agreed. This does not apply to leave taken in parts.
If leave or part of the leave is taken outside the summer vacation period, at the written request of the supervisor, that part of the leave shall be extended by 25%.
4.6 Postponement of vacation
Transferring vacation between years is not permitted, cf. however, articles 4.6.2 and 4.6.3.
If an employee does not take leave or part of a leave, at the written request of the superior, the leave may be carried over to the next leave year, provided that the employee has not completed taking leave during the leave year. The same applies to an employee on maternity leave. In such cases, however, the accumulated leave may never exceed 60 days. If the employee does not use the accumulated leave days, they expire.
Information on the status of accrued and untaken leave shall be accessible to employees in the institution's time registration system.
If an employee becomes ill while on vacation, the time spent sick is not considered vacation, provided the employee proves with a medical certificate that he or she is unable to take vacation.
In the event of illness or accident during vacation, the supervisor must be notified immediately and in a verifiable manner.
In such cases, it is permitted to carry over unused leave to the following year, cf. Article 4.6.2
An employee who falls ill abroad must be prepared to prove their illness with a foreign medical certificate.
If an employee leaves another job without having taken any accrued vacation, they are entitled to unpaid vacation for up to 30 days
If an employee who had vacation time due on May 1, 2020, up to 60 days, has not used those days by April 30, 2023, the remaining days will be forfeited.
Employees who were entitled to winter holidays under an older collective agreement and choose to retain that right shall have the option to do so, and the older rules regarding that right shall apply in all respects.

The deceased employee's accrued vacation entitlement shall be paid to the estate
5. Travel and accommodation
5.1 Travel expenses according to invoice

Protocol 1
Because of the back-up
The parties agree to appoint a working group to review the arrangements for standby duty and related calls. The group shall include representatives of public employers and public employee unions, as well as representatives of trade unions that may be relevant to the matter.
The working group will map the extent of on-call duty, examine the frequency and types of calls, and work to improve on-call duty statistics. The work will include examining how on-call leave is taken and whether there are certain groups that are not receiving on-call leave.
The group shall then analyze and assess whether it is feasible for standby duty to become a work obligation in parallel with the cancellation of standby duty leave according to Article 2.5.4.
No later than 1 October 2024, the parties shall have appointed their representatives to the working group and the employee representatives shall convene the first meeting. The working group shall further define the subject matter and procedures. The aim shall be to have proposals available no later than 31 May 2025.
Protocol 2
Due to the cancellation of Article 3.2
Notwithstanding the repeal of Article 3.2, the parties to the agreement agree that those individuals and/or work groups who had meal and coffee breaks during overtime as part of the work structure before the entry into force of the collective agreement signed in 2024 and who have generally received such payments on a regular basis shall retain comparable payments, cf. the following. Changes shall not result in a reduction in wages and equality within work groups shall be observed.
3.2.1 If overtime is worked, refreshment breaks shall be as follows: 19:00-20:00, 24:00-00:20, 03:30-04:00, 06:45-07:00.

Refreshment breaks during overtime may be taken in other ways by agreement at the workplace.
Protocol 3
Role of the steering committee
If the changes to better working hours on June 10, 2024 do not achieve the intended goals or if there are issues regarding the interpretation of the changes, a steering group of parties who signed the changes shall discuss the matter and find a solution. The steering group will operate for the duration of the agreement, 2024-2028.
The guidelines and, where applicable, resolution issues that the steering group issued in 2021 in conjunction with the implementation of "Better Working Hours" remain valid as applicable. The steering group will meet in September 2024 and update the guidelines and, where applicable, resolution issues with regard to the changes that occurred in collective agreements in 2024.
Protocol 4
Other salaries
The authorization clause in Article 1.1.3 stipulates that in addition to monthly wages, so-called other wages may be paid. Other wages arise from job-related factors that are not covered by job evaluation, such as regular overtime and job-related stress that cannot be measured in time and may replace overtime pay according to Article 1.4.
The new authorization provision is intended, among other things, to support the changes that result from better organization of working hours. Other wages do not automatically change and thus encourage dialogue between employees and managers. As a result, other wages may vary from time to time as the assumptions behind them may change, in content and scope.
Notwithstanding the above, the parties agree that during the term of the agreement, other salaries pursuant to Article 1.1.3 will increase by 3.25% on April 1, 2024, 3.5% on April 1, 2025, 3.5% on April 1, 2026 and 3.5% on April 1, 2027.
Protocol 5
The performance evaluation system SAMSTARF
The parties agree on the long-term goal of paying equal wages for jobs of equal value at the City of Reykjavík. To this end, the parties have evaluated jobs based on the parties' job evaluation system (SAMSTARF).
The parties agree on the need to continue to work on improvements and development of the SAMSTARF performance appraisal system and its framework. In recent years, the parties have worked systematically to clarify the framework for professional management of the performance appraisal system to ensure that the system achieves the goals for which it is intended, as well as that the system develops and complies with the requirements made of it at any given time.
In order to work on the continued development of the job evaluation system in order to value the important jobs performed by municipal employees, the common interests of employees and the operation of job evaluation, and also to ensure the involvement of stakeholders and clarify their roles where necessary, it is proposed that the parties agree on an external party that will be tasked with conducting an audit, on the one hand, of the work processes, working methods, interview processes, approval processes and other processes of the job evaluation with regard to the system's goals of equal pay for work of equal value, and, on the other hand, of the system's organizational structure and its ability to meet the interests of stakeholders.
The objective of the review is to identify challenges and opportunities for further development of the job evaluation system in order to promote better and more efficient job evaluation procedures and ensure the professional independence of the system. The need for changes to the framework and governance of the system, the role of the professional board and the establishment of a joint management board of stakeholders shall also be assessed.
The above will be worked on during the term of the collective agreement in collaboration with other unions that have agreed on the SAMSTARF job evaluation system and in collaboration with the City of Reykjavík and the Association of Icelandic Local Authorities. Preparations will begin upon the entry into force of the agreements and an audit will be initiated before 1 January 2025. The aim shall be for the audit to be completed no later than 1 January 2026 and the results of the audit shall form the basis for scheduled and cost-estimated actions in the operations and organization of SAMSTARF. The professional board of SAMSTARF shall be responsible for this implementation and shall be authorized to handle the necessary aspects required by the project.
The cost of the audit is divided between the City of Reykjavík and the Association of Icelandic Local Authorities.
Protocol 6
Preparation times
The School and Leisure Division is responsible for issuing guidelines for the preparation time of department heads and those employees in preschools who have been assigned tasks that require preparation, see Art. 2.2.4.2 of the parties' collective agreement. The division will present the guidelines to managers from autumn 2024 and this work shall be completed no later than September 15, 2024. It is the responsibility of the School and Leisure Division to update the guidelines based on experience and as professional work develops - the following guidelines are currently in place:
Criteria for preparation time for department heads
The preparation time for employees with departmental supervision in kindergartens is 8 hours per week based on full-time work.
In the fall, the preschool principal and department head plan where in the department head's weekly work schedule his preparation time is best placed based on the organization of the preschool's work.
In cases where the preschool principal requests that the department head perform other duties during the time that he or she is supposed to perform preparation according to the weekly work schedule, the preparation shall be moved to within the working day or work week. If this is not possible, daily/weekly preparation may be moved to and performed outside of the daytime working hours, and the weekly/daily workload shall be increased accordingly. Preparation time performed outside of the daytime working hours according to the preschool principal's instructions shall be paid as overtime according to the working hour stamps.
Criteria for preparation time for employees assigned to specific tasks that require preparation.
The length of preparation time depends on which tasks and/or how many tasks requiring preparation the employee is assigned to perform by the manager. In general, efforts should be made to ensure that preparation is continuous where this is relevant to the job.
The following are guidelines for tasks that generally require preparation.

If a job is re-evaluated/reviewed to a higher rating and/or if there is a change in the job titles/employment terms of employees in the above-mentioned rating ranges, so that the salary ranking is based on the higher rating, the payment will change in accordance with the changed rating range. If the rating of the job reaches a higher rating than 388 job evaluation points, payments according to the above will be cancelled.
If employees who have been paid according to the above are paid other wages on the basis of Article 1.1.3 of the parties' collective bargaining agreement, the amount will be reduced accordingly.
Fixed payments to preschool and home care staff:

Protocol 9
Issuance of a comprehensive collective agreement
The parties agree to incorporate the text of this agreement into the full text of the collective agreement and, where appropriate, to remove provisions that are no longer applicable. This work shall be completed by October 31, 2024.
Protocol 10
Guidelines for shift records
The parties agree that an educational initiative will be undertaken regarding the preparation of shift schedules for both employees and managers, and that the City of Reykjavík will prepare guidelines for the preparation of shift schedules to ensure better predictability, safety and health of both users and employees, and that work-life balance will be at the forefront. The needs of the workplace, equality within the employee group, as well as the wishes of individual employees must be taken into account when preparing shift schedules, and it is emphasized that a discussion will take place about the preparation of shift schedules at the city's workplaces. With the health and safety of both employees and users in mind, the parties agree that the guidelines that will be prepared will take into account the rule that night shifts end at 8:00 at the latest and that no deviations will be attempted more than once a week from the principle of 11 hours of uninterrupted rest according to 2.6.3.1.
Protocol 11
Criteria for work assignments in shift work in work assignments
Representatives of the City of Reykjavík and Efling will emphasize to the steering group that it agree on a standard, before the end of September 2024, for excess work shifts in shift work. The main principle is that work shifts in excess of work obligations are paid as overtime. However, it must be assumed that when it comes to shift work, it is normal for work shifts to fluctuate to some extent between pay periods. When determining a standard, consideration should be given to setting a general rule on the one hand and an exception on the other when the organization of the operation calls for longer shifts. It should also be taken into account that when drawing up a shift schedule, it should be assumed that the employee's work shifts are based on the work ratio and that hours do not move between shift schedules except due to accumulated work shifts due to special holidays and major holidays that fall on Monday to Friday
Protocol 12
The School and Leisure Department will analyze the frequency of needlestick injuries and the increased workload due to them in departments within Reykjavík preschools. Instructions will be submitted no later than January 31, 2025 on how to respond to cleaning in the preschool and how to pay for the work that staff undertake in addition to regular work. The analysis and conclusions will be presented to a collaboration committee.
Protocol 13
Procedures for the expenditure incurred for antiparasitic drug treatment
The parties agree that it is necessary to ensure that employees do not bear the cost of necessary anti-parasitic drug treatment when an infection occurs in the workplace. The City of Reykjavík shall prepare specific instructions on how this is implemented by October 1, 2024.
The following provisions from the collective agreement signed on March 10, 2020 remain in effect:
Protocol 1
Equal treatment in the labor market
The parties agree that the provisions of the collective agreement that exempt employees who have reached the age of 55 from night shifts and/or back shifts, if they so wish, do not constitute a violation of Act No. 86/2018, on Equal Treatment in the Labor Market. The same applies to provisions on longer notice periods for employees aged 55 and older who have worked for at least 10 consecutive years at the same institution.
In certain circumstances, differences in treatment on grounds of age may be justified when justified by objective reasons justified by a legitimate aim, including employment policy or other objectives relating to the labour market, subject to proportionality. Collective agreements on exemptions from night and back shifts after a certain age take into account the view that research has shown that it becomes more difficult for workers to work night shifts as they age, as it takes longer to recover physically due to the interaction between working arrangements, sleep and circadian rhythms. Provisions on longer notice periods with increasing age are based on the view that when retirement is imminent, workers may find it more difficult to find suitable alternative employment. The European Court of Justice has given Member States some latitude to decide what objectives should be pursued and what measures are appropriate to achieve that objective. The Parties agree that the objectives behind these provisions are objective and do not go beyond what is necessary.
Protocol 2
Sickness benefits contribute to labor market activity
The parties agree that an attendance policy that promotes early intervention can prevent long-term illness and even disability in later stages. Similarly, there is a need to increase the opportunities for employees to adapt to the workplace after long-term illness and when returning to the workplace after vocational rehabilitation.
When revising the illness section, consideration will be given, among other things, to a common definition of the terms long-term and short-term illness and to a harmonised implementation of counting sick days. The article on illness of children under 13 years of age will also be reviewed and whether it should cover the illness of close relatives.
With these goals as a guide, work will be carried out on revising Chapter 11 during the term of the agreement. Work on revising Chapter 11 will begin on August 17, 2021 and is expected to be completed no later than May 1, 2022. Any costs that may arise from the project will be shared between the employers and can amount to a maximum of ISK 10 million. If consensus is reached within the group on changes to the article on illnesses of children under the age of 13, the parties to the agreement agree that it can enter into force during the term of the agreement, after further agreement between the parties.
Protocol 3
Salary development insurance
The aim is to introduce a wage development guarantee between the public and private labor markets, with the participation of ASÍ. The wage development guarantee is intended to ensure that wage development is generally similar for public employees and in the private labor market, and is thus intended to ensure that public employees keep up with general wage development during the contract period.
Protocol 4
Accident insurance review protocol
The parties undertake to work on and complete the revision of Rules No. 1/90 and 2/90, which were approved at the City Council meeting on June 5, 1990, on the terms of accident insurance for employees of the City of Reykjavík according to collective agreements pursuant to Act No. 94/1986 for accidents that employees suffer at work and during their free time, by June 30, 2020.
The aim of the revision of the rules is to update them in light of the changed legal and insurance environment, as the rules are somewhat outdated. The aim of the revision of the rules is also to clarify terms and various other issues that have been considered unclear or likely to cause misunderstanding.
The most important change proposed in the revision of the rules is that compensation will no longer be paid from the insurance for traditional medical permanent disability if there is a right to compensation for the accident under compulsory motor vehicle insurance, i.e. either from liability insurance or driver and owner accident insurance under the Traffic Act, No. 50/1987, as amended. This change is intended to correct the situation of employees who suffer traditional medical permanent disability due to accidents other than those covered by the aforementioned insurance, as the latter enjoy the right to compensation from compulsory motor vehicle insurance. This change also provides scope to increase insurance amounts under the terms of the rules.
The parties agree that the procedures for settling benefits from workers' accident insurance will be reviewed. This includes examining how data collection will be conducted, as well as the reimbursement of expenses incurred.
If the parties do not reach an agreement on the above, before June 30, 2020, the older rules No. 1/90 and 2/90, approved by the City Council on June 5, 1990, will remain in force for the contracting parties.
Protocol 5
Other salaries
The new authorization provision in Article 1.1.3 stipulates that in addition to monthly wages, so-called other wages may be paid. Other wages arise from job-related factors that are not covered by job evaluation, such as regular overtime and job-related stress that cannot be measured in time and may replace overtime pay according to Article 1.4.
The new authorization provision is intended, among other things, to support the changes that result from better organization of working hours. Other wages do not automatically change
Notwithstanding the above, the parties agree that during the term of the agreement, other salaries pursuant to Article 1.1.3 will increase by 2.5% on January 1, 2021 and on January 1, 2022.
Protocol 6
on the implementation of changes to payments for consumption breaks based on Attachment III
The parties agree that there will be no dispute that special additional payments for consumption breaks, which have been paid to preschool staff, will be terminated as of April 1, 2020. Kindergarten staff in employment on March 31, 2020 will receive the corresponding amount of overtime pay as a fixed payment according to Art. 1.1.3, after the termination period ends.
As of 1 April 2020, Article 3.1.6.1 is repealed. Home care workers in employment on 31 March 2020 will receive the corresponding amount of overtime pay based on the salary table on 1 April 2020 as a fixed payment according to Article 1.1.3 on other wages.
The following provisions from the collective agreement signed on November 13, 2015 remain in effect:
18.1 Protocol 3
18.2 About job evaluation
The parties agree on the need to further strengthen the professional independence of job evaluation as well as job evaluation representatives vis-à-vis unions and the city administration.
The parties have worked on developing and adapting the performance appraisal system and the rules that apply to it, with the aim of making them and the procedures relating to performance appraisal clearer. The parties have worked together on the above and have submitted new/revised performance appraisal rules, which, among other things, propose the establishment of a performance appraisal appeals committee. The committee's role is to receive appeals concerning performance appraisal results, and it is expected that the committee will begin work as soon as possible.
The parties agree to continue with the regular review of those jobs that have an evaluation older than 5 years according to the job evaluation rules. It is also necessary to continue to compare jobs across the city's departments and locations and ensure that there is no unjustified discrimination.
The job evaluation website has been under development and is expected to be launched no later than February 1, 2016. Meeting minutes will be made available on the job evaluation website.
The parties to the agreement will continue to work towards increasing the presentation of the performance appraisal system to managers, shop stewards and members. This will promote informed discussion between the parties about the performance appraisal system with the aim of making the system better and more efficient.
18.3 Protocol 5
18.4 Educational opportunities and career advancement
The parties agree that the Career Development Committee will work in collaboration with the city's departments and the board of the Vocational Training and Career Development Fund to review and examine additional learning opportunities for groups and workplaces that can lead to career advancement. In this regard, special attention will be paid to employees who have extensive experience working for the City of Reykjavík.
Consideration will be given to the fact that education in work-related studies can lead to advancement in a job that is valued in terms of salary.
The following provisions from the collective agreement signed on May 27, 2011 remain in effect:
18.5 Protocol on education and safety issues [no. 4]

20. Attachment III: on a special increase in the minimum wage
The parties agree on the importance of ensuring a specific increase in the lowest wages of traditional women's professions. With this goal in mind, wage increases during the contract period according to Art. 1.1.1 provide for króna increases in the basic wage level of the wage table, along with a change in the job evaluation linking rule from 1 April 2020, which includes the equalization of wage brackets, both of which ensure a specific increase in the lowest wages.
I.
In addition to the above, the parties have agreed that from 1 April 2020 a special adjustment will be paid to employees in permanent positions. This applies to jobs rated below 389 job evaluation points. The payment amounts to a total of ISK 15,000 per month for jobs rated up to 319 job evaluation points. The payment includes reductions of ISK 1,500 for each grade interval to the salary group from and including job evaluation points 320 to 388, and therefore a total of ISK 1,500 per month is paid to employees in jobs rated from 381 to 388 job evaluation points.
The payment is a fixed amount based on employment rate, regardless of individual wage-forming factors, and does not include increases during the contract period. Holiday pay is included in the above amounts. Payments according to the above will cease at the end of the contract period, on March 31, 2023, without further notice, but such that payments will remain in accordance with practice until a new collective agreement has been concluded between the parties.

If a job is re-evaluated/reviewed to a higher rating and/or if there is a change in the job titles/employment terms of employees in the above-mentioned rating ranges, so that the salary ranking is based on the higher rating, the payment will change in accordance with the changed rating range. If the rating of the job reaches a higher rating than 388 job evaluation points, payments according to the above will be cancelled.
If employees who have been paid according to the above from 1 April 2020 are paid other wages on the basis of Art. 1.1.3 of the parties' collective agreement, the amount will be reduced accordingly. However, this does not apply to the following payments according to Art. 1.1.3 to preschool employees and home care employees.

25. Attachment X: Framework agreement for cleaning work
Framework agreement between VMSÍ on the one hand and VSÍ, VMS, the Minister of Finance on behalf of the state,
and the City of Reykjavík, on the other hand, for cleaning work.
SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
Scope of the agreement
This agreement covers all types of cleaning work as defined in this agreement. It is intended to create a framework for organizing cleaning and defining terms.
Objective
To facilitate the application of different pay systems and planning. To increase education about the field of work and to promote increased quality in the implementation of cleaning.
Definitions
Cleaning
Cleaning is the process of removing dirt (from a surface). This may involve the use of water, tools, equipment, and cleaning agents.
Regular cleaning
This refers to a specific, defined area of the building that is regularly cleaned, along with the interior items, below reachable height, cf. Art. 3.1. of this framework agreement.
Main cleaning
This means that the surface is thoroughly cleaned below reach level of dirt that does not disappear with regular cleaning, cf. project description
Cleaning
This means that the surface is cleaned of dirt that does not disappear during cleaning, cf. Articles 2.2. and 2.3. of this framework agreement.
CLEANING AREA
Demarcation of cleaning areas (Access height)
A cleaning area is defined by the floor area and the possible working height of a person standing on the floor, or a safe base as stipulated in the project specifications.
Measuring square meters for cleaning
The square footage of each area shall be measured as the floor area limited by the inner edge of the area's walls.
PERFORMANCE
Working hours
Work pace is the measured speed of work according to the definition of the International Labor Organization.
Standard output is the output that competent employees produce on average during a working day or shift without overexertion, provided they know and follow a specific work method and are interested in putting in the effort.
Such performance is considered to be worth 100 points according to standard assessment and performance scales.
For other working hours, reference is made to the definitions of the International Labour Organization, cf. Appendix I.
Calculating cleaning time
When calculating time for cleaning work, time units (standard hours) can be used as a basis. When time units are used for each project according to the project description, they shall be in accordance with a specific work rate that the parties to the contract agree to use, cf. Art. 4.1. and Chapter 6 of the Guidelines for the preparation and implementation of work studies, cf. Annex I to this framework agreement.
Performance calculation
The basic unit for calculating cleaning performance is square meters of floor cleaned per unit of time (m2/hour). This includes all cleaning in the cleaning area according to the job description.
EXAMPLE:
The area is 600 m2 of floor space. Everything is started 3 days a week and the time for the work on each of these 3 days is Y hours.
The output of this area is - 600/Y = X m2 per hour.
The area is 655 m2 floor area, 450 m2 are opened 5 days a week, while 205 m2 are opened 3 days a week. The total time of the area is Y hours.
The output of this area is - ((450x5)+(205x3))/Y =X m2 per hour.
WORKING HOURS
See chapter 18
Paid time off
Paid time for cleaning areas is measured in hours for each shift. See protocol annex II to this framework agreement.

WORKING ORGANIZATION
Adaptation
The parties to the agreement may decide which wage system shall be used, depending on what is considered appropriate for the work to be carried out. Other work may also be related to the cleaning work carried out by the cleaning worker at the workplace. With more diverse possibilities in wage systems, increased information to employees and the combination of cleaning areas within the same building or more, opportunities are created to increase the number of jobs and increase the employment rate in cleaning, see also Appendix III to this framework agreement.
Other provisions
Provisions other than those stipulated in the framework agreement shall be negotiated separately.
EQUIPMENT
Workplace facilities
Workplace facilities shall be in accordance with the provisions of collective agreements and the Act on Facilities, Health and Safety at Workplaces and the Regulation on Workplace Accommodation. Provisions concerning the execution of the work and special facilities for cleaning work shall be stipulated in the job description.
EDUCATION
Courses
To increase job skills, the parties to the agreement have reached an agreement on holding courses for cleaning staff. The courses are to teach them the correct working methods and handling of tools and materials. Promote understanding of the need for quality in this service. Promote the protection of the health of employees and ensure that they are educated about their work and the collective agreements that apply to the work.
Development
The aim is to make cleaning work a professional job where employees have acquired a certain level of specialization through education and work experience.
WORK STATEMENTS
Project description
The written job description shall clearly delineate on a drawing the cleaning areas, what is to be cleaned and with what emphasis. The job description shall state at what time of day the area is to be cleaned and how often.
Accessibility of project descriptions
A job description shall be available at the workplace and accessible to employees. The job description shall be revised immediately if there is a permanent change to the cleaning area or cleaning requirement. A trade union shall have access to the job description if it so requests. Before work begins, employees shall be thoroughly familiarized with the work area and working conditions and shall review the job description.
EQUIPMENT
About equipment and changes
Care should always be taken to ensure that the most suitable equipment is available on site, along with the cleaning materials to be used, to make the work as easy as possible and ensure the best possible results. In the event of major changes to equipment, the time estimated for the work must be re-evaluated.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Dispute over contract provisions
If a dispute arises regarding this agreement, the implementation of the agreement's provisions, or anything else covered by the agreement, it shall be referred for resolution to a four-person committee, where the parties to the agreement appoint two people each.

Protocols regarding an agreement on certain aspects concerning the organization of working hours between the Minister of Finance on behalf of the Treasury, the City of Reykjavík and the Municipal Wage Committee and the Icelandic Confederation of Trade Unions, the Association of University Employees, the Association of State and Municipal Employees and the Icelandic Teachers' Union:
Protocol for points a. and d. of Article 13.
Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 1 of Article 17 of this Agreement, the Parties agree that, as regards the provisions of Articles 3 and 5 of the Agreement, they shall be implemented no later than 30.06.1998. The aim shall be to commence the review of shift work systems as soon as possible, where necessary, in view of the provisions on minimum rest and weekly working hours.
Work arrangements may be maintained unchanged, including the length of time between shifts during shift changes, until paragraph 1 of this protocol has been met.
Booking for authorization to postpone daily working hours
The practice has become widespread, in some cases by direct reference or provisions in the text of the agreement, of basing the implementation of the rest time provisions of the law on the interim agreement between ASÍ and VSÍ/VMS on the implementation of the rest time and leisure provisions of Act No. 46/1980, dated 10 April 1981, towards members of ASÍ member associations.
With the agreements on certain aspects concerning the organization of working hours, the above-mentioned interim agreement from 10 April 1981 will cease to be valid. The agreement does, however, contain payment rules for deviations from minimum rest and it is assumed for the time being that they will remain in force for the time being, but at the next renewal of collective agreements they will be adapted to the content of this agreement and incorporated into the text of the agreement.

The committee's role is to be a professional consultation forum on the development of the performance evaluation system, the operation of the Performance Evaluation Project Office, work processes and performance evaluation procedures.
Article 6. Protection of information
Data submitted to the performance evaluation committee shall not be personally identifiable. All processing of computerized personally identifiable data in the performance evaluation process shall be subject to access restrictions with passwords and access limited to employees of the Performance Evaluation Project Office. Performance evaluation interviews shall be identified with unique numbers. Processing classified as sensitive personal data shall be notified in advance to the Data Protection Authority, but the performance evaluation committee operates under the permission of the Data Protection Authority.

Article 7. Publication of results
The performance evaluation committee publishes the results of performance evaluation in the following manner:

CHAPTER II
Job evaluation criteria and job classification
Article 8. Conditions for job evaluation
When evaluating a job, the following points must be met:
a) that the job title has been registered and ISTARF classified and that a new/updated signed job description is available,
b) that the employee(s) have completed a performance appraisal questionnaire
c) that the job has been held by the City of Reykjavík continuously for at least six months,
d) that the scope of work is ongoing and stable.
Occasional or temporary work, such as summer jobs and special projects, is not subject to performance evaluation. Furthermore, the performance evaluation committee is authorized, in exceptional cases (such as seasonal work), to refer cases with justification for classification to the collaboration committee/employment compensation committee.
Article 9. Selection of job representatives for job evaluation interviews
When selecting representatives for performance appraisal interviews, the performance appraisal committee's sampling rules regarding the number of employees to be invited to performance appraisal interviews from each position shall be taken into account:
1 pc. in the job = 1 interview with the manager
2-5 people in the job = 2 for an interview with a supervisor
6-30 people in the job = 4 for an interview with a supervisor
31-60 hours in the job = 6 interviews with the manager
61 or more employees = 10% of employees, up to 10 interviews
The HR manager of the department makes a proposal to the staff of the Job Evaluation Project Office regarding employees who are invited to be interviewed as job representatives, along with information about the next superior. It should be ensured that the representatives reflect the employee group, i.e. that the gender distribution, age and workplaces are proportionally in accordance with the employee group performing the job.
The sampling rules can be accessed in their entirety here.
CHAPTER III
Planning a job evaluation interview
Article 10. Announcement of a performance appraisal interview
The organization of job evaluation interviews is overseen by the employees of the Job Evaluation Project Office, who assign each organization a time frame for interviews, while the HR manager of the relevant department arranges the employees and managers who will attend the interviews at specific times within that frame and is responsible for their invitation. The employees of the Job Evaluation Project Office invite union representatives to the interviews.
Article 11. Promotional materials for interviews
Before a performance appraisal interview takes place, the division's HR manager must ensure that employees have received introductory materials about performance appraisal and the documents necessary for the performance appraisal interview.
Article 12. Responsibility for employee preparation
The HR manager of the department and the next superior are responsible for and shall ensure that the employee is given the opportunity during working hours to familiarize themselves with educational materials about the job evaluation and to complete the job evaluation questionnaire and submit it for an interview. It is important to create facilities and opportunities for the employee to talk with a person in the same job and the superior about questions that may arise and to review the job description.
Article 13. Performance appraisal interviews
Performance appraisal interviews take place at a designated meeting location. In addition to the employee or, as the case may be, the employees, an employee of the performance appraisal project office, a representative of the employee's union and the immediate superior are present at the interview.

Article 15. Review of assessment results
Once the results of the performance evaluation are available, the employee may, within 30 days, request a meeting with the department's human resources manager and immediate superior, in the presence of a representative of the relevant union, to review the results of the performance evaluation of their job.
This meeting shall be called within 14 days of the employee's written request to that effect, unless the parties agree on another arrangement.
CHAPTER IV
Job reassessment.
Article 16. Conditions for reassessment
The performance appraisal committee must review the outcome of a performance appraisal if there is evidence that significant and lasting changes have occurred in the job since it was last evaluated or if there are other objective reasons that are shown to have had a significant impact on the outcome of the performance appraisal. This could, for example, involve new tasks that have been added to the job scope following job restructuring or due to changes over a long period of time.
A request for reassessment must distinguish between the elements required in the job and the elements that the employee performs in excess of what the job requires according to the division's decision
Article 17. Form of request
A request for reassessment must be submitted on a form provided for that purpose. The employee may seek assistance from a union representative and/or department in preparing the request.
A request that is incomplete will not be processed and will be returned with instructions regarding deficiencies.
For a request to be considered valid, it must be accompanied by a completed questionnaire and justification.
The employees of the Job Evaluation Project Office request a confirmed job description from the department and
they shall notify the performance evaluation committee of the relevant reevaluation request at the committee's next meeting after the request is received.
Article 18. Information requirement regarding reassessment requests
If a division's HR manager requests a job re-evaluation, he or she shall inform the person or persons holding the job of the grounds for the request.
If an employee/employees request a job reevaluation, employees of the job evaluation project office must notify the division's personnel manager in writing that a reevaluation of the job evaluation results has been requested for a job that falls under the division's operations.
If the job is in more than one area, the committee shall, as appropriate, notify other personnel managers of the existing reassessment request to ensure that consistency is maintained when evaluating jobs within the city.
The employee's union(s) shall also be notified of the request.
Article 19. Decision on reassessment
The Job Evaluation Committee will process a reassessment request if the conditions for reassessment are met. If a job reassessment results in changes, this will take effect from the time a satisfactory request for reassessment is received by the Job Evaluation Project Office according to the provisions of collective agreements.
Article 20. Review of performance appraisal
All jobs that have not been re-evaluated or reviewed in the past five years shall be reviewed annually, and this shall be done in the following manner:
a) The staff of the Job Evaluation Project Office shall prepare an annual list of the jobs that were evaluated five years previously and have not been re-evaluated or otherwise reviewed. The list shall be made available on the Job Evaluation website.
b) The Human Resources department sends the list to the divisional HR manager and requests a job description for the relevant positions, which must be received by the Human Resources department within two months. The job description must be up-to-date and not older than 6 months. If the divisional HR manager believes that the position has changed, the division shall request a reassessment.
c) If a reassessment request is not received from a department or employee within 2 months with regard to the aforementioned jobs, information about this will be sent to the relevant union, along with the job descriptions of the jobs, and the union can subsequently take action to ensure that a reassessment request is received from the employee(s).
d) If no reassessment request is received from the department or employee, but the committee nevertheless agrees that a review of the job is needed, the committee may request further justification from the relevant HR manager and, if necessary, call him to a meeting to review the matter.
e) The job evaluation committee shall meet annually with personnel managers and review the job descriptions of the positions on the list.

31. Attachment XVI: Dispute resolution regarding piecework in cleaning
Time-based work in cleaning – dispute resolution procedures
If a dispute arises regarding time measurement in cleaning according to Article 1.7.1 of the collective agreement, the following procedure will be followed:
The supervisor and employee jointly inspect the cleaning area and examine the following aspects, taking into account the work rate of 130:
Is there a written job description in place and does it meet the provisions of the collective agreement? Is the job description consistent with the tasks assigned to the employee?
Are the estimated working hours in the job description consistent with the employee's agreed working hours?
Does the employee follow a job description?
Does the employee perform other tasks not specified in the job description?
Is the quality of the work consistent with the project description?
Does the employee have all the tools and materials most suitable for cleaning the area in question?
Has the employee received instructions on the use of tools and materials?
Has the employee mastered the work method that is most suitable for the cleaning area in question?
Are the conditions at the workplace unusual, for example due to construction or other temporary circumstances that may affect working hours?
Are the time measurement criteria consistent with the type of housing and its accessibility?
other factors that may be relevant, such as whether complaints have come from the client, whether there are seasonal differences in dirtiness, absences of colleagues leading to increased stress on the employee, etc.
The supervisor prepares a memorandum stating his and the employee's position on the above-mentioned factors and gives the employee a copy. If the supervisor and the employee reach a joint conclusion regarding unchanged time measurement or a change in time measurement, that conclusion is recorded on the memorandum.
If a supervisor does not respond to an employee's request for negotiations or does not deliver a memorandum within two weeks of the request for negotiations being made, the employee may refer the dispute to their union.
If the procedure under section 1 does not lead to a resolution of the dispute, the employee may request that his union participate in the resolution of the dispute. The procedure under section 1 is then repeated with the participation of a union representative. If the union chooses to carry out time measurement, the employer shall submit a drawing of the cleaning area showing the area of the spaces, a job description and other matters relevant to the time measurement. The union shall submit its time measurement to the employer with the assumptions on which it is based.
If an agreement cannot be reached through the mediation of a trade union, it may refer the dispute to the parties' collaboration committee on piecework. The committee shall be composed of four representatives, two from the City of Reykjavík and two from Efling . The committee's role is to resolve disputes and may, for this purpose, request evidence from the parties to the case.
The joint conclusion of the collaboration committee is binding on the parties. If the committee cannot reach a unanimous conclusion, it will seek the assistance of an impartial professional with knowledge and experience in time measurement in cleaning, to perform the time measurement. The procedure, which includes the final resolution of the case, is then as follows:
both parties must approve the relevant professional,
The relevant professional must have recognized time standards that are updated regularly and can also carry out time measurements on site if requested,
The relevant professional measures the time of the work by recording it in a time standard according to the available data and provides an estimated time accordingly,
The cost of time measurement by professionals falls equally between the employer in question and the trade union that referred the matter to the committee,
if the result according to point c) is not considered acceptable by another party to the case (tolerance 5%), the same party may demand that a time measurement of the work be carried out on site by the same professional,
The cost of time measurement by a professional pursuant to item e) falls entirely on the party who requested such measurement.
