Some Employees Underpaid in Tourism
"Infringements on employees’ rights are more common in tourism than elsewhere."
A union leader in Akureyri, North Iceland, claims that last summer, dozens of cases came to his attention involving employees in the tourism industry being underpaid, according to Vísir. Björn Snæbjörnsson, head of Eining-Iðja Union in Akureyri, believes infringements on employees’ rights are more common in tourism than elsewhere, Iceland Review reports.
Björn says dozens of cases he has seen involve failure to follow rules about paying workers overtime.
