With only a few months remaining before the deadline to transpose the EU pay transparency directive — a reform set to significantly impact employers — mind RH is publishing a series of country overviews examining how its implementation will affect key European markets and how businesses are preparing.
The EU pay transparency directive could be a minor revolution in Italy, imposing new practices on companies. At present, however, the country seems far from ready; the decree-law transposing the directive is not on the government’s agenda this autumn and is not expected to come into force until 2026. Rome has until 7 June to transpose the directive. In addition, the Italian economic fabric is overwhelmingly composed of SMEs, which are ill-equipped to cope with the new obligations.
