Radio Sweden Weekly: Nurses strike for a shorter working week

This podcast episode explores the ongoing strike in Swedish healthcare, where healthcare professionals are demanding a shorter working week to address overwork and burnout. The strike has led to negotiations between the union and employers, but an agreement has not been reached. As a result, planned operations have been postponed and longer wait times are being experienced. The episode also covers early voting in the EU elections, with an increase in participation compared to previous elections. Interviews with political candidates discuss their visions for the European Union in 10 years time, focusing on climate change and future generations. The episode concludes with discussions on Swedish EU policy and the implementation of a security zone in a vulnerable area of Norrköping. Reactions to the security zone vary, with some believing it will address ongoing issues with violence and organized crime, while others express concerns about exacerbating vulnerability in the area.
