Last week, we were joined by clients and contacts, as well as members of our European Labour and Employment team, for a roundtable discussion on the likely role of workers’ representatives under the Pay Transparency Directive.
With just under 12 months to go until the Directive comes into force, affected businesses should be planning for how they will meet their new obligations. Understandably, the current focus is mainly on scrutinising pay structures and processes and collating the necessary pay data, but businesses should be aware of the significantly expanded role of workers’ representatives under the new Directive. In this note, we share the key issues for businesses to consider as they start thinking about how to engage with their workers’ representatives, both in the run up to implementation of the Directive and thereafter.
