Pål Kraby

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pål Fredrik Kraby (16 February 1932 – 8 August 2009) was a Norwegian businessperson and lawyer.

Born in Lillehammer, Kraby became a Supreme Court barrister in 1968. He was the CEO of the Norwegian Employers' Confederation (NAF) from 1979 to 1987, having been assisting director since 1973.[1] He was pressured to resign due to a lockout which failed.[2] Having received a secret golden parachute, this was unveiled in 1992 by journalist Arne O. Holm. For this, Holm was awarded the SKUP Prize.[3]

He was the father of Ida Hjort Kraby.[4] He died in August 2009.[5]
