There are big differences between how covid staff in the country have been rewarded in addition to their basic salary, SVT's survey shows.

We have asked all regions: “Have you distributed an extra covid compensation in addition to the basic salary to healthcare staff in 2020?

What did it look like? ”

In the Kronoberg Region, the answer to the question is no.

But Mikael Johansson believes that it should be seen in the light of the fact that the region has instead chosen to raise the basic salaries for all members of the Healthcare Association in 2020 and for Kommunal's members in 2021.

- We made Sweden's largest investment in Vårdförbundet in 2020. And when it comes to Kommunal's members, we made an investment in them this year, says Mikael Johansson (M), chairman of the regional board, to SVT Nyheter Småland.
