Pay transparency is becoming one of the most important topics that will shape the labor market in Poland in the coming years. This is the first article in a series on the EU Pay Transparency Directive, in which we will discuss step by step the most important issues, responsibilities and challenges related to the implementation of these regulations. We are, of course, talking about Directive (EU) 2023/970 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 10.05.2023 to strengthen the application of the principle of equal pay for equal work or work of equal value between men and women through pay transparency and enforcement mechanisms. Today we will zoom in on the first key aspects, such as the deadline for implementation in Poland, the personal scope of the Directive and the basic obligations of employers.
