Getting ready for pay transparency

Pay transparency changes how the whole organisation works.

 

 

 

What this means for you

§

What the EU directive covers

The EU Pay Transparency Directive sets rules on sharing starting pay or a pay range with applicants and gives employees access to certain pay information. Reporting is phased in by employer size, starting at 100 employees. A joint pay assessment may be required when a reported gender pay gap of at least 5% in a category is neither objectively justified nor remedied within six months. The deadline for EU countries to transpose the directive was 7 June 2026. Ask your employment law adviser which requirements apply to your organisation.
