Outras regras estipulam que, se uma empresa tiver pelo menos 100 funcionários, deve publicar regularmente informações sobre as diferenças salariais entre homens e mulheres.
Companies must also negotiate with employee representatives if there is a 5% discrepancy. Anyone who fails to comply with any of the rules will be subject to sanctions, including fines.
Employees who believe they are victims of discrimination can seek compensation.

“O mesmo trabalho merece o mesmo salário. E para a igualdade salarial, é preciso transparência”, declarou na véspera a presidente da Comissão Europeia (o braço Executivo da UE), Ursula von der Leyen.”As mulheres devem saber se seus empregadores estão tratando-as com justiça. E quando não estiverem, devem ter o poder de revidar e conseguir o que merecem”, acrescentou.
These standards will still have to receive the green light from the European Council, which represents the bloc's countries.
A diferença salarial entre homens e mulheres é de apenas 0,7% no Luxemburgo, embora na Letônia chegue a 22,3%.
