UNIONS IN DNV GL SECURING JOBS IN 2015 BY SETTLING FOR 2.6% SALARY GROWTH The salary negotiation settlement is important in order to secure a correct salary increase for all DNV GL employees in 2015. NINA IVARSEN, ANGELA MILLER, GRETHE VALDØ VEFF, Tekna and NITO negotiated together this year. This enabled us to use all statistic data available early in the year. Negotiations have now been concluded and the salary has been distributed. This article shows the unions’ calculations, figures and statistics, which you can use to benchmark your salary in line with your colleagues’ salaries and your expectations. You can also read the unions’ comments to the negotiations in this article.

DNV GL’s policy DNV GL distributes the negotiated salary increase, but the unions argue strongly that this must be experienced as fair for all parties. Unions take care of the interests of all members, and believe we are all part of our knowledge-based society and the services we provide for our customers. We have different categories and a differentiated basis, but your salary increase should be reasonable compared to the increases allocated to your peers. Salary developments in DNV GL are to be based on four known criteria, negotiated in central agreements between the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise (NHO) and the main unions YS/Parat (VEFF), Tekna and NITO. The four criteria are: • Economy • Productivity • Outlook • Competitive ability

formula. This is based on a norm used by DNV GL during the past few years – refer to the matrix below. DNV GL is a knowledge-based company whose main focus is on engineering assignments relating to oil, shipping and energy. If you are in the first ten years of your career and have a master’s degree or the equivalent, you will receive the largest share of the ”salary pot”. The older you are, the smaller your salary growth percentage will be. This year’s distribution framework is 2.0%. In addition to the framework, 0.6% was distributed for promotions and appointments as of 1 April 2015. The

Tekna’s comments Many of our members are concerned about how their own individual compensation compares to Tekna statistics. The DNV GL Tekna group has not come significantly closer to the Tekna average after the salary negotiations these past few years, and we will follow this trend carefully when Tekna statistics for 2015 are made available to us.

Verification report for the pay settlement 2015 In principle it is DNV GL that allocates salary on the individual level. DNV GL practises individual remuneration, but fundamentally complies with a distribution

percentage rate per category is average for all employees in that category and can only be used as a guide. Note that the trade unions only negotiate a percentage framework; unions do not allocate the percentages.
