Bus/Financial - Finance (general) / lønnsberegning
English term or phrase: kronefaktor
I don't really know what the term means, because I am correcting a translation and the translator translated it as 'Carpenter's fixed salary' and I don't know if I am unfamiliar with the registry, or if the translation is wrong.

Norwegian translation:hourly wage
Explanation:
When I google this (it was a new word for me, as well), it seems it is also used for plumbers and other manual professions, not only carpenters.
As far as I understand it is the hourly wage. There is also such a thing as "minuttfaktor".
