EU Pay Transparency Readiness Audit
Understand where your pay practices stand - before 2026 compliance deadlines arrive.
This audit gives you a structured, neutral assessment of your current pay structures, role alignment, and potential gaps under the EU Pay Transparency Directive (EU 2023/970). You don’t need perfect data – just what you already have.
Clarity, not complexity. No legal advice. No software commitment. Just a clear, defensible report you can act on.
What’s included
- Clear grouping of equal or comparable roles
- Objective overview of current pay structures
- Early identification of pay gaps above 5%
- Structured documentation aligned with EU requirements
- A professional PDF report for internal use
This is an analysis you can trust – explained in plain language, not legalese.
How the audit works
This is a practical diagnostic service, not a coaching session or software demo.
Step 1 – Short intro & data intake
You provide payroll files (Excel, CSV, PDFs) and basic role info. No need to clean anything beforehand.
Step 2 – Analysis & structuring
We process the data:
- Normalize salaries by handling net/gross values and inconsistent formats
- Group roles based on comparable work and responsibilities
- Calculate pay levels and identify relevant compensation gaps
Step 3 – Report delivery
You receive a clear, structured PDF that shows:
- Role groups and methods used
- Salary comparisons and identified gaps
- Risk indicators tied to EU-defined thresholds
- Objective observations suitable for further use
Data is deleted after delivery and processing only happens with your consent.
Who this is for
This audit is ideal for:
- Romanian and EU SMEs with approximately 20–200 employees
- HR teams or business owners seeking clarity ahead of compliance deadlines
- Companies that want structured documentation without heavy consultancy
- Organizations preparing for pay transparency queries or internal alignment
If you already have enterprise tools or in-house pay equity experts, this audit may be redundant.
Why this matters now
The EU Pay Transparency Directive enshrines the principle of equal pay for equal work or work of equal value. It requires clear documentation, objective grouping of roles, and transparency around pay practices and it’s already rolling toward implementation in national law by June 2026.
This audit gives you early clarity and confidence, not last-minute panic.
What this is - and what it is not
This audit is:
- A data-based assessment
- Directive-linked, using thresholds such as gaps above 5%
- Designed specifically for SMEs
- Delivered as a clean, structured report
This audit is not:
- Legal advice
- A compliance guarantee
- A software subscription
- A long consulting engagement
You get clarity, not commitment.
Audit timeline
After kickoff, the full analysis and report delivery generally take 7–10 business days.
