EU Pay Transparency Communication Toolkit
Turn compliance into competitive advantage
The pay transparency problem
New EU rules from 2026 require pay transparency—but most organisations aren’t ready for the fallout:
✅ Employees will demand explanations for pay gaps
✅ Managers lack training for tough compensation conversations
✅ Leadership fears mass resignations and reputational damage
✅ HR teams struggle to message changes without causing panic
Without the right approach, transparency backfires—creating distrust, turnover, and compliance risks.
