Norwegian exchange rate
One issue that has occupied many of our members lately is how the Norwegian krone exchange rate has developed.
Accordingly MAF addressed the company on a general basis on the subject and received the following response:
"As an employee of Maersk Drilling / Maersk Drilling Norway with a place of work on the Norwegian continental shelf the individual receives salary paid from Maersk Drilling Norway in NOKs, Norwegian currency. Price development and the current exchange rate will thus naturally be one of the factors eventually affecting the wages you actually receive in the current currency used in the country in which you live, both positively and negatively. The Collective Agreement stipulates the level of compensation for the individual position in Norwegian kroner and the company relates to this".
