Who earns the worst in Norway. It is commonly believed that Norway is a country where everyone earns very well. Salaries may be high for Polish realities, but taking into account the cost of living in the Kingdom, it turns out that not all professions are attractive. According to official data, it turns out that agricultural workers earn the worst, followed by oil industry managers, pilots, medical specialists and engineers with diplomas.
The lowest wages are in agriculture
- According to official statistics, workers employed in the agricultural sector are paid the worst. They occupy the top three places on the list of the lowest paid positions. This applies primarily to people employed as:
auxiliary workers in agricultural livestock production. Such persons can count on gross NOK 25 per month - auxiliary workers in mixed agricultural production. This position earns an average gross monthly earnings of SEK 25
- auxiliary workers in agricultural plant production. In this case, the average monthly salary is SEK 25 gross
Not much better in the hotel and catering industry
As it turns out, employees working as interviewers, food service workers, bartenders and waiters are in a slightly better situation. The individual wages in these positions were as follows:
- interviewers could count on an average of SEK 25 gross per month
- people employed in cafes and small gastronomy sectors received an average salary of 26 gross SEK per month
- bartenders earned on average 27 kronor gross per month
- waiters received on average 27 280 gross crowns every month
Experts at the opposite extreme
Much higher rates apply to those employed in the oil and aviation industry. Also specialized doctors and engineers with diplomas. Their salaries were as follows:
- a manager in the extractive industry earned on average CZK 93 gross per month
- the average salary of the pilots amounted to CZK 83 gross per month
- specialist doctors could count on average gross CZK 81 per month
engineers with diplomas received an average of 76 gross crowns per month for their work
Where is this information coming from?
It is worth noting that the above amounts include not only the gross wages indicated on the employment contracts. Any bonuses and allowances that are not regularly paid were also taken into account. However, overtime hours were not counted, and in the case of people working part-time, the salary they would receive full-time was taken into account.
