Progress on the gender pay gap and broader pay equity issues has been slow across the EU. The European Commission believes the key is to drive greater pay transparency and has brought forwards a new Directive introducing initiatives including mandatory gender pay gap reporting, a ban on salary history questions to candidates and requiring the publishing of pay bands for vacancies. What can your organisation learn from the US and the UK on how to navigate changes, where similar measures have been in place for some time?
We’ll discuss:
- The new rules and how they might apply
- US lessons learned - salary band disclosure and bans on pay history questions
- UK best practice considerations after five years of Gender Pay Gap reporting
- Implications for your Reward strategy today, in preparation for implementation of the Directive
- Key points for undertaking a pay equity analysis
Join us as we move towards the implementation of the new law.
