Bus/Financial - Business/Commerce (general) | | 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?

Cecile Watrin: 1:33pm Aug 28, 2004: la paie is a shortcut for le service de la paie -
xxxdf49f: 2:03pm Aug 28, 2004: maybe "payroll department" might be more suitable? -

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... :)
