Transparența salarială întârzie în România. Ce obligații vor avea angajatorii și ce riscuri aduce noul cadru (Op-ed)

Romania has exceeded the deadline for transposing the EU Directive on pay transparency, with the legislative project still in parliamentary procedure. The new rules will impose obligations on employers regarding recruitment, employee information, reporting pay disparities, and justifying any salary discrepancies. The delay raises legal and practical issues, including the specific obligations for employers and potential risks for the state. The project aims to implement key mechanisms from the Directive, such as recruitment transparency, employee rights to information, and reporting pay differences based on gender. Failure to transpose the Directive on time could lead to financial penalties and potential compensation claims for affected individuals.
