Emergency preparedness agreement for psychological services for employees who are exposed to a violent episode, serious threats of violence and other highly traumatic incidents.

The annual value of the emergency preparedness agreement is NOK 500,000 including VAT.

Psychological assistance is an important supplement in cases where managing the follow-up is insufficient within our own framework. At the same time, it is important to emphasise that psychological assistance will not replace personnel follow-up, which is the manager's responsibility. The manager also has the main responsibility for follow-up after incidents of violence and / or threats of violence.

Bergen municipality has approx. 20,000 employees. The psychologist service can only be assigned by a manager.

Bergen Fire Brigade is excepted from this agreement due to own agreement in this area.
