Equal work deserves equal pay.
And equal pay needs transparency.
One year ago, the EU Pay Transparency Directive was approved, bringing us a step closer to equality.
This is particularly important for women, who still earn less than men for the same work.
These rules will help end pay discrimination by ensuring:
🔸Pay transparency for jobseekers
🔸Right to information for employees
🔸Reporting on gender pay gap
🔸Joint pay assessment

It would be nice to see expected pay rates included in all job listings. It would make things so much easier all around.
@EU_Commission Who defines equal work though? For certain industries it's easy to measure, but for others, it's significantly harder to determine what equal work means.
@EU_Commission
Is there any info about how big salary ranges can be on job postings? Can the employer just write 1-10k eur? Couldn't find anything concrete in the directive here https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=uriserv%3AOJ.L_.2023.132.01.0021.01.ENG&toc=OJ%3AL%3A2023%3A132%3ATOC
@EU_Commission answers to all your questions about the EU Pay Transparency Directive in my new book: Equal Pay for Equal Work
