At the meeting on May 27, the board received a presentation on how to apply social clauses on Metroselskabet's upcoming projects in order to ensure decent pay and working conditions and apprenticeships. Metroselskabet has gained a lot of experience with the challenges that arise on a gigantic project like the M3 line and the Nordhavn line. Against this background, a number of improvements are being introduced for future contracts. These include requirements for self-inspection of subcontractors, expanded sanction options, accommodation requirements, etc.
The board has also approved Metroselskabet's new apprenticeship target, which professionals have been involved in assessing and setting. The purpose is to have a fixed and concrete target that is more transparent for contractors and allows Metroselskabet to follow up more effectively. The new target means that the previous 5-7 percent target changes to a new nominal target, where a target of 62 apprentice FTEs is set for the remaining part of the Cityring project. This corresponds to the way in which The Company sets apprenticeship requirements in the new contracts. In the final stages of the construction, apprentices are expected to work in the electrician and structural engineering trades in particular.
