Unrealistic budgets and poor management: Oslo Welfare Service criticized in new report
The Welfare Service in Oslo has gotten a lot of criticism in a new report from Deloitte, Norwegian Broadcasting (NRK) reports.
This is not the first criticism aimed at the agency – in the autumn of 2019, NRK revealed extensive violations of the Working Environment Act in Oslo Municipality over several years.
The Welfare Service works with measures for drug addicts, housing for groups with particular needs, and measures to create a safe environment in central Oslo.
Guri Bergo, director of the Welfare Agency, commissioned the review. She admits that action must be taken and promises an improvement within a couple of years.
“The biggest challenge will be changing. We must stop working the way we have done and find new ways of doing things. And that is always uncomfortable,” Berg told the channel.
