The pension fund for nurses in Denmark.
As women and because of their job mobility and low wages, female nurses in many countries are among the employee groups most severely disadvantaged under pension schemes. For many national nurses' associations, an adequate and equitable pension income for nurses after retirement is a major concern. Below a report on the system the Danish Nurses' Organization secured for nurses in Denmark--a system that offers nurses the best possible pension conditions and support when ill and disabled--and on page 177 a summary of efforts by the American Nurses' Association to make a portable pension system for nurses a legal requirement for employers.
