On April 26, the LO Finans union and the Finans Norge employers’ organization reached an agreement on wage increases. The general increase is at least 0.6 percent on May 2013 within a general budget of 3.93 percent. However, LO Finans deplored the absence of a true wage policy restoring balance between men and women’s wages. In the finance sector, the average gap is 30 percent, for only 10 percent at national level. (Ref. 130431)
3.93 percent increase. This year, the negotiations were only for the pay level and general increases, knowing that only 25 percent of the salary is determined at sectoral level – the remaining 75 percent are defined at local level (which LO has been unsuccessfully fighting).
