The EU Pay Transparency Directive brings far-reaching changes for employers and will have a lasting impact on remuneration systems. Although national implementation in Austria is still pending, it is clear that companies will need to adapt their existing salary structures, recruitment processes and internal compliance measures to the new requirements in good time.
In future, employers will be required, amongst other things, to disclose transparent criteria for remuneration systems, to inform applicants about starting salaries as early as the application stage, and to document and justify gender-based pay differences more comprehensively.
In our webinar, our experts Dr Anna Mertinz and Mag. Elisabeth Plese will provide you with a practical overview of the key provisions of the Directive, the current status of implementation in Austria, and the associated employment law challenges for companies.
Key topics:
- Overview of the EU Pay Transparency Directive and the current status of implementation in Austria
- Impact on recruitment, job advertisements and employment contracts
- New information, documentation and disclosure obligations for employers
- Requirements regarding pay structures, equal pay and reporting
- Practical tips for legally compliant and efficient implementation within the company
