EU Pay Transparency Directive: Czech Republic and Slovakia's Divergent Approaches
As the deadline for implementing the EU Pay Transparency Directive approaches, the Czech Republic and Slovakia are taking different paths. Slovakia is ahead, with a draft law already in the legislative process, focusing on equal remuneration and transparency in recruitment. The Czech Republic, opting for a minimalist approach, has released a draft Labour Code amendment, aiming to meet EU requirements with minimal employer burden. Both countries are preparing to enhance pay transparency, with Slovakia emphasizing detailed recruitment transparency and the Czech Republic focusing on gradual implementation.
