The Norwegian Nurses Organisation (NNO) (Norsk Sykepleierforbund, NSF) is a national professional association and trade union representing over 110,000 registered nurses, midwives and nursing students in Norway. It was founded in 1912 by Bergljot Larsson. The organisation's objectives focus on professional, social, and representational policies, concerning areas such as public health, ethical nursing standards, as well as collective bargaining aimed at improving wages, hours, working conditions and benefits. NNO is politically neutral and has some 3000 elected union representatives. Its president since 7 November 2019 is Lill Sverresdatter Larsen.[2]
