Whitepaper: EU Directive Pay Transparency 2026
Major changes in wage transparency legislation are about to be implemented and will directly impact companies across the European Union.
The EU Pay Transparency Directive on wage transparency is in the implementation phase and requires organizations to disclose job and salary structures, create pay gap reports, and take action to ensure fair remuneration. Since all EU member states must incorporate the directive into their national legislation by 2026, companies with more than 100 employees (both public and private organizations) will be required to report pay gap data.

With mandatory reporting requirements coming into effect as early as 2027, organizations need to prepare now by reviewing their reward structures, addressing potential pay gaps, and ensuring compliance with evolving legislation.
