A practical ACLASA map for pay transparency and pay equity. It shows countries with active rules, countries in transition and countries that need monitoring, without making the client dig through a long list first.

How to read this: green means the local file is ready; amber means a priority country brief; blue means monitored rules; violet and charcoal mean active non-EU logic.

Compared with the previous production update:

No newly enacted pay-transparency change was confirmed. Romania’s Senate record now exposes a favourable budget-committee opinion dated 15 September, while L445/2026 remains pending in permanent committees; France bill no. 944 remains pending first reading and Poland UC127 remains a government draft project.

Practical detail

Romania

The Senate record for urgent proposal L445/2026 now lists a favourable budget-committee opinion issued on 15 September. The proposal remains in permanent committees, and the 2 October tacit-adoption date is a parliamentary milestone rather than an employer deadline or proof of enactment.

Review result

France

No superseding official act was confirmed in the 21 September differential review. Current governed position remains: France has an existing professional-equality index. Government bill no. 944, intended to transpose Directive (EU) 2023/970, was deposited in the Senate on 10 September 2026 and placed under the accelerated procedure. First reading remains pending, so the bill does not yet create new employer duties.

Review result

Poland

No superseding official act was confirmed in the 21 September differential review. Current governed position remains: Recruitment amendments apply from 24 December 2025: initial pay or range information, gender-neutral recruitment wording and a restriction on salary-history questions. The official government register separately lists wider proposal UC127 as a draft. This bounded review does not establish complete enacted transposition.

Review result

Finland

No superseding official act was confirmed in the 21 September differential review. Current governed position remains: The ministry published a voluntary gender-neutral job-evaluation model on 3 September 2026. Incomes Register guidance updated on 8 September sets out reporting preparations under HE 129/2026. The bill remains before Parliament; 1 January 2027 is proposed commencement, not enacted law.

Review result

Ireland

No superseding official act was confirmed in the 21 September differential review. Current governed position remains: Existing Irish gender-pay-gap reporting remains separate from full Directive transposition. In the official 16 June 2026 answer, the Minister confirmed delayed full transposition and continuing annual publication; central-portal filing was described as following an amendment. The 13 September review read that answer, the consolidation dated 31 May 2025 and the original draft Heads 4 and 5. September enactment and mandatory portal commencement remain unverified.

Review result

Hungary

No superseding official act was confirmed in the 21 September differential review. Current governed position remains: The official Labour Code text inspected on 13 September 2026 retains section 12 on equal treatment in remuneration and assessment of equal-value work; the displayed consolidation is dated 28 February 2025. This review does not verify September transposition. The autumn programme remained inaccessible behind CAPTCHA. The separate 11 September EUR-Lex observation of zero notified Hungarian measures is unchanged and does not prove that domestic legislation or proposals are absent.

EU baseline in force; national law must be checked
Finding
No superseding official act was confirmed in the 21 September differential review. Current governed position remains: Directive (EU) 2023/970 sets the common EU framework for equal pay, recruitment transparency, worker information rights, employer reporting and enforcement. The transposition deadline passed on 7 June 2026, but employer duties must be read through each country's enacted law.

Finding
No superseding official act was confirmed in the 21 September differential review. Current governed position remains: Act No. 76/2026 Coll. took effect on 7 June 2026. Section 6 separates information about an employee's own pay from sex-disaggregated category averages. Under section 18(2), category-average information is first provided for 2027. This does not create a separate 1 January commencement date for own-pay information.

Finding
No superseding official act was confirmed in the 21 September differential review. Current governed position remains: The consolidated Royal Decree 902/2020 requires a pay register for all companies, including management and senior executives. Registers include sex-disaggregated means and medians; pay audits form part of equality plans.

Gender wage-gap disclosure applies to 101+ regular workers from 1 April 2026
Finding
No superseding official act was confirmed in the 21 September differential review. Current governed position remains: From 1 April 2026, employers with 101+ regular workers must disclose the gender wage gap and the proportion of women in management. Employers with 101–300 add at least one other required indicator; 301+ add at least one from each of the two designated categories. The first covered financial year ends on or after 1 April 2026; publication is generally around three months after the next financial year begins.
Recommended next step
Prepare both indicators and the size-appropriate additional item(s). Record the first financial year ending on/after 1 April 2026 and the publication date.

Federal 10+ proactive pay equity and separate 100+ LEEP reporting active
Finding
The regulator’s page, modified 11 September, distinguishes federal 10+ proactive pay equity from other regimes. Plans are normally due within three years of becoming subject and updated at least every five years.
Recommended next step
Record why the entity is federally regulated, the date it became subject, the plan’s due date and the next five-year update; keep LEEP separate.
Suggested owner
HR lead with local employment counsel
Timing / condition
Entity-specific three- and five-year plan clocks; verify annual-statement and LEEP dates separately.

100+ semi-annual reporting active; sixth-report availability not confirmed
Finding
The official sixth-report notice confirms the 3–31 August information-update window for 100+ employers. Today’s review did not establish that the sixth report is already available for every employer.
Recommended next step
Check the employer’s official portal for its report, validate the figures and prepare the required publication; retain evidence of availability and the published report.

Gender wage-gap disclosure applies to 101+ regular workers from 1 April 2026
Finding
From April 2026, 101+ regular-worker employers disclose both the gender wage gap and the women-manager ratio. Additional required indicators depend on size; timing follows the employer’s financial year.
Recommended next step
Prepare both indicators and the size-appropriate additional item(s). Record the first financial year ending on/after 1 April 2026 and the publication date.
Suggested owner
HR and payroll lead
Timing / condition
Generally about three months after the following financial year begins. A June 2026 year-end points to approximately September 2026, not a universal 30 September deadline.

Previously
Equal-value pay rule generally applies from 5 regular workers; no universal public report
Finding
Correction: the old under-five-worker exception was deleted in 2018. Article 8 equal-value pay cannot be presented as starting only at five regular workers; the decree’s specific exceptions still need scope checking.
Recommended next step
Review small establishments previously excluded by the tracker. Compare actual skill, effort, responsibility and working conditions within the business.
Suggested owner

Timing / condition
Correct scope now; no universal public-report filing date follows from article 8.

Annual reporting active for 519+ employers and specified entities
Finding
The retained 519+ and specified-entity framework remains the baseline. Current regulator instructions and any 2026 deadline extension were not successfully verified; the old early-June wording must not be treated as a confirmed current deadline.
Recommended next step
Obtain the Commission’s current notice for the covered year before deciding whether the report is late; preserve internal and public reports with privacy controls.

2026 EEA2/EEA4 reporting open for designated employers
Finding
The live 2026 portal accepts EEA2 and EEA4 only, not EEA12/13. It requires CEO approval and an acknowledgement of receipt; no amendment is allowed after final submission.
Recommended next step
Use a pre-submission checklist for figures and CEO approval, then save the acknowledgement. Select online or manual delivery deliberately.

Code on Wages section 3 in force; no universal public reporting
Finding
The official explanation explicitly includes transgender identity in section 3 gender-discrimination controls for wages and recruitment. A generic male/female-only policy misses that scope.
Recommended next step
Review recruitment templates and wage-comparison controls for gender-inclusive application; confirm the appropriate central/state rules for the establishment.

Apply the existing section 3 controls now; no universal pay-gap filing date asserted.

Tripartite fair-employment guidance active; Workplace Fairness Act enacted but not yet in force
Finding
The MOM parliamentary reply targets Workplace Fairness Act implementation at the end of 2027. Present fair-employment expectations and the future Act’s commencement are separate.

100+ headcount equal-pay analysis framework active through 30 June 2032
Finding
The regulator links repeat analysis to the prior result: repetition every four years where equality was not met; an employer newly reaching 100 workers at the start of a year has its own first-analysis clock.
Recommended next step
Record the last analysis result, workforce at the year start, independent-review evidence and next required date; do not copy another employer’s 2025–2027 sequence.

National 50+ reporting framework in force; transition depends on prior certification
Finding
The national 50+ reporting transition depends on the latest certification/confirmation. Regulation 946/2026 also requires an approved equality plan before filing.
Recommended next step
Locate the latest certificate or confirmation and approval of the equality plan; calculate the entity’s deadline from that evidence.
Suggested owner
HR lead with local employment counsel

Prior certificate/confirmation: three years after the latest one. Neither held: before 1 March 2027.

Amended equal-pay and pay-equity claim process active; no universal public report
Finding
Current guidance uses a merit-and-requirements assessment, not the older arguability wording. Acknowledge within five working days; decide within 60 working days, with a reasoned limited extension where allowed.
Recommended next step
Create a receipt-date log, acknowledgement template, union-notification privacy check and decision calendar; obtain legal review before discontinuing a claim.
Suggested owner

Job-category and equal-value pay framework active without a general headcount threshold
Finding
Correction: the prior 4 August 2026 Supreme Court claim was not supported by the cited evidence and has been removed. Confirmed guidance requires job-category/function schedules and informing workers of salary policy.
Recommended next step
Keep approved category/function schedules and evidence that workers received the salary policy. Obtain the actual judgment before using any case-law claim in a pay decision.

Finding
The official interpretation supports a reasoned written response within 30 days and the internal complaint/role-register controls. This is an existing same-work framework, not a newly verified universal public report.
Recommended next step
Check the internal regulations and who receives a pay complaint; ensure the response explains the objective basis and is retained.

Equal-remuneration baseline without a headcount threshold; separate 300+ confidential balance social
Finding
Correction: Law 25,877 article 25 says more than 300 workers, not 300 or more. The annual social balance is confidential; union delivery is within 30 days after preparation, with a copy to the labour authority.
Recommended next step
Recheck entities with exactly 300 workers. For covered employers, assign preparation, union delivery and confidential authority-copy responsibilities.
Suggested owner

One reporting spine for CSRD, employee requests and country duties

ACLASA connects pay transparency, ESRS S1 remuneration metrics, hourly remuneration, employee information requests and global country reporting in one operating model.

CSRD / ESRS S1

Sustainability reporting needs payroll-grade evidence

Pay gap and remuneration-ratio outputs use controlled populations, components, periods and approvals.

Employee right

EU requests need a clear answer process

Workers need written, accessible information without exposing another person’s pay.

Safe factors

Explanations must be objective and documented

ACLASA separates defensible factors from salary history, negotiation power and historical titles.

Payroll spine

Correct pay and hours data decides credibility

Payroll reconciles pay codes, hours, FTE, retro corrections and exclusions before reports or responses go out.

Clear enough for a small firm, deep enough for a global employer

The public tracker gives everyone a starting point. Larger employers can add local country files, source refreshes, language views and reporting packs from the same dataset.

Public

Know where to look first

Country status, plain obligations, start-stop-more actions and XLSX export for planning.

Company

Run many countries calmly

Local country files, English group views, source refreshes and clear ownership of next actions.

Codes

Use the right work language

EU starts with ISCO/EIGE/ACLASA. The US, Brazil, Australia, Canada and the UK need their own reporting and occupation logic.

Watch

Every country has a place

Countries without a strong public duty stay visible as monitored, so global teams can keep one inventory.

Reward

How do we classify work?

ACLASA keeps the sequence stable: work evidence, objective evaluation, equal-value category, ACLASA band, ISCO/ESCO context and country rules.

Legal

Can we evidence it?

Every country card carries official sources, status, deadlines, local language text and an English export layer.
