When we are interested in a job offer, we want to know as many details as possible before sending the company an application for the position. Among all the aspects that usually stand out there is always one that we miss and that is vital to decide if we choose that position. Now, the European Union has issued a new law that will force companies to communicate this in all personnel selection processes.
This measure will directly affect all companies that operate in any of the 27 member countries of the EU and Its transition period for its application will last until June 2026. From that date on, everyone who offers a job must detail all the details of the contract, including this, which is always the most controversial. Workers applaud this decision, because the majority of interested parties consider this aspect essential before signing up for an offer.

In this way, the EU wants to move towards total transparency in these procedures that are so important for people who want to access a job.
Know how much you will charge before the final decision
The European Union approved in May of this year Salary Transparency Law by which all companies will be obliged to include the salary that the person who finally takes that job will earn. Even though the European Union Directive 2023/970 came into effect a few months ago, it will not be until June 7, 2026 when all governments will have to comply with this requirement. During this mandatory transposition period, organizations will have to comply with the regulations that will be applicable to:
All workers who have an employment contract or employment relationship.
People applying for employment.
Employees of the public and private sectors.
The EU wants to reinforce the principle of equal pay for the same job between men and women and thus prohibit the gender pay gap. According to data from the European Union itself, in 2020, Men earned 13% more than women for performing the same job. This wage inequality is one of the objectives that Brussels wants to reduce. Furthermore, the Council also thinks that putting the salary in the job offer will promote competition between companies and will help those interested earn more money.
