Norway has strong traditions in collective bargaining, and trade unions hold a prominent position. Although the trade union density rate has been decreasing in recent years, more than half of the Norwegian labour force is still collectively organised. Strong emphasis is placed on central organisations of employers and employees. Compulsory collective agreements supplement legislation in wages, working conditions and benefits. Results of central wage negotiations between the large employee's and employer's organisations serve as guidelines for the local wage negotiations.
