Can we still negotiate individual salaries under the pay transparency rules?
The short answer is yes - the Directive doesn’t ban individual salary negotiations. Employers can still adjust offers based on skills, experience, or market demand.

What’s the minimum sample size for pay gap reporting, and what if we don’t meet it?
The general principle is clear: avoid reporting on groups so small that individual employees could be identified.

What is a “category of workers,” and how should we define it for reporting?
To report meaningfully on pay gaps, employers need to group employees into “categories of workers” - clusters of roles that can fairly be compared.

What does “equal work of equal value” mean, and how do we define it?
The Directive goes beyond equal pay for the same job. It also requires employers to ensure equal pay for different jobs that are of equal value.

The Directive requires employers to report on both unadjusted and adjusted gender pay gaps. These two figures tell different but equally important stories
