KS utreder samfunnstjeneste for alle – kan gi flere hender i helse og omsorg

Kommuneorganisasjonen KS skal motta en utredning innen 15. mai fra Menon Economics, skriver Stavanger Aftenblad. Utredningen skal ta for seg samfunnsnytten og forutsetninger for innføring av allmenn samfunnstjeneste.

– Det økende arbeidskraftsbehovet framover aktualiserer spørsmålet om hvordan vi kan trekke inn flere ressurser i verdiskapende aktivitet i samfunnet. En slik mulighet kan ligge i innføring av en allmenn samfunnstjeneste, der flere samfunnsbehov kan tenkes dekket samtidig, sier avdelingsdirektør for innsikt og innovasjon i KS, Monica Fossnes Petersson, til avisen.

Hun tror en samfunnstjeneste som omfatter alle, kan være en del av svaret på behovet for flere hender i blant annet helse og omsorg.

Styremedlem Arne Bergsvåg (Sp) i KS ønsker diskusjonen om en eventuell samfunnstjeneste velkommen.

– Vi er nødt til å gjøre en god del radikale endringer i måten vi bor, lever, reiser og skaffer oss ressurser på. Det må ikke bli ett års tjeneste bare for å sette ungdom til noe i ett år. Det må være effektivt og gjennomtenkt. Uansett vil det være læring i dette, sier Sp-politikeren til Stavanger Aftenblad.
