PAY TRANSPARENCY
As of 7 June 2026, Act No. 76/2026 on Equal Pay for Men and Women for Equal Work or Work of Equal Value entered into force. The Act transposes Directive (EU) 2023/970 into Slovak legislation. This legislation substantially changes the obligations of employers and places a strong emphasis on greater pay transparency.
The Act applies not only to employees working under an employment contract, but also to individuals working under work agreements, temporarily assigned employees, as well as persons performing dependent work on the basis of other contractual arrangements.
Definition of “REMUNARATION” = basic pay and all other monetary and non-monetary benefits, including employee benefits, provided by the employer to employees (e.g. contributions to supplementary pension savings schemes, company cars available for private use, and other similar benefits).
