Business and Nature: An Essential Relationship

ESG Spoiler Alert Salary Transparency: What's changing with the new European Directive?

The European Directive on Pay Transparency, which comes into force in June 2026, represents a profound change in the way companies define, communicate and manage their remuneration policies. In addition to new legal obligations - such as disclosing salary ranges and strengthening employees' rights to information - this directive introduces a new transparency paradigm that could expose internal inequalities and require a structural review of existing practices. More than a compliance challenge, this is also an opportunity for companies to strengthen their value proposition as employers, increase internal trust and improve their recruitment processes. In this webinar, experts will explain the essentials of the directive, the legal framework and the practical impacts, as well as sharing concrete measures that organizations can adopt now to prepare effectively.
