"In this way, we want to thank and encourage the employees of the municipality, and at the same time support the local business community in these tough economic times," writes the municipality's website.
Fagersta municipality was the last municipality in Västmanland to introduce health care money to its employees in 2018. Now you want to introduce a summer gift. But whether or not it will be a gift will be decided by the municipal council on June 2.

However, what the summer gift costs for Fagersta municipality and where the money is to be taken from is not clear.
