§ 05Questions fréquentes
Who must report under the EU Pay Transparency Directive?
Employers with 100 or more workers fall under the gender pay gap reporting obligations, with first reports phased by size from 2027 (and 2031 for the 100–149 tier under the EU minimum framework). Pay range disclosure and other transparency rights can apply more broadly — national law governs the exact scope.
What is a joint pay assessment?
If an unexplained gender pay gap of 5% or more exists in any category of workers and is not remedied within six months, employers must conduct a joint pay assessment with worker representatives to analyse causes and set remedial measures.
What documents do we need for a pay transparency report?
Typical intake includes payroll and variable pay extracts, workforce/HR master data (including gender and role attributes), job descriptions and evaluation systems, pay policies, and supporting organisational evidence. We guide you through a structured checklist.
Do you provide legal advice?
No. AP Digital Solutions provides a concierge preparation and documentation service with legal vetting of deliverables. Compliance obligations are set by national law implementing the Directive. Organisations should obtain independent legal advice for their circumstances.
How long does a first engagement take?
A typical first report engagement runs 4–8 weeks depending on data readiness and organisational complexity. Accelerated timelines are available for 2027 deadlines.
