French term or phrase: effectuée par la paie

I don't follow the final part of this sentence:

"Méthode de calcul du nombre de jours ouvrés par mois effectués par la paie".

Part of a list, so no real other context, except to say it's from a French works council document.

May well be something simple, but I can't find a solution. Any suggestions?

Herunder my suggestion

Explanation:
Computation method used by the wages department to work/figure out the number of working days per month.

Could probably be written more concisely in English than I can think of... :)

Thanks, with 'paie' being short for 'service de la paie' the sentence suddenly makes perfect sense!
