Average monthly earnings up NOK 2 700

About the statistical basisThe statistics are based on information from a sample of enterprises which cover a total of 5 410 full-time employees and 897 part-time employees. According to the Norwegian Central Register of Enterprises and Establishments as per September 2010, real estate activities comprise in total 22 100 employees. The term average monthly earnings is the main term in Statistics Norway's wage statistics. Monthly earnings cover basic salaries, variable additional allowances and bonuses. Payment for overtime work is not included but is presented in the statistics separately. The method for measuring increases in monthly earnings differs somewhat from that of calculating increases in annual earnings. Monthly earnings are compared at a specific date each year, while changes in annual earnings are measured from one calendar year to the next. Estimated annual earnings for the current year are preliminary until wage statistics for the following year have been compiled. |
