We don't have a general minimum wage in Norway, because we don't need them. We have strong unions that have given us good tariffs for various industries, that acts as a minimum pay for that sector.

But there are some sectors (building, cleaning etc.) that do have a government set minimum pay, because they often would exploit foreign workers.

Actually, our foodora bicyclists a while back formed a union, striked, and got a tariff deal. So got rid of some of the problems around their gig-work.
