Portuguese term or phrase: por cada um ano a menos

I hope this is the last issue I have before handing back this 100 page tender. Then, I need a beer or 10.

Does "a menos" in this context mean "or less"?
This is Mozambican Portuguese and there are some subtle differences. In Brazilian Portuguese it would be ou menos.
