Summary

MPs Seher Aydar and Marie Sneve Martinussen propose ensuring dedicated space for break rooms and work areas for hospital staff. The proposers argue that several newer hospitals have been built with insufficient space and that staff lack adequate break rooms, which affects working conditions and the ability to recruit and retain personnel.
