Pay Transparency training
The EU directive, mandatory from June 7, 2026, aims to reduce gender pay gaps by increasing transparency in pay systems. Organizations must have a pay structure that ensures equal pay for women and men performing equal or equivalent work.
The directive requires regular monitoring and reporting of gender pay gaps. If there is a gap greater than 5% that cannot be explained by objective criteria, employers must take corrective action to ensure equal pay. Employers need to prepare for creating compliant pay reports and ensure a transparent pay structure and information flow. This requires a job evaluation system based on objective, gender-neutral criteria, salary bands linked to levels, and transparent pay systems with proper employee communication.
Why is it timely to start preparing now?
Under the directive, employers will first need to report on 2026 salary data. Therefore, it is advisable to conduct a preliminary analysis in 2025 to identify any potential pay gaps in time and take necessary actions at the beginning of 2026.
Who is the training for?
This training is especially recommended for organizational decision-makers, HR leaders, and HR professionals working with pay structures, recruitment, employer branding, HR policies, or processes. It is also recommended for professionals involved in internal and external communication, as the implementation of the directive involves numerous communication tasks. The training aims to present the employer-related requirements of EU Directive 2023/970 and provide practical guidance for interpretation and preparation.
