This law only affects "allmennaksjeselskap" (ASA), which there was less than 300 of in Norway last time I checked. In short they are listed on Oslo Børs (OSE) and are publicly traded. For smaller companies, also called "aksjeselskap" (AS), there are some regulation there as well, but nothing compared to this. It has more about female representation in the company in general.
