maandloner

English translation: Per month/monthly wage earner

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
Dutch term or phrase:maandloner
English translation:Per month/monthly wage earner
Entered by: Marijke Singer

Dutch to English translations [PRO]
Bus/Financial - Finance (general) / pay slip
Dutch term or phrase: maandloner
Again, this term appears on the same pay slip. The context is:

"Algemene gegevens
Verwerkingsdatum [datum]
Werknemer [nummer]
Sofinummer [nummer]
Geboortedatum [datum]
Datum in dienst [datum]
Loonperiode *Maandloner*
Fulltime basissalaris [bedrag]
..."

Would 'monthly earner' suffice as a translation? RSVP.

Cheers,
R.

Per month
Explanation:
I would translate this with Per month because it is actually referring to a period and not the type of person. You could even translate loonperiode with 'salary paid' and then 'maandloner' with 'monthly'. This would sound more natural.
