This map shows, at a glance, which countries require employers to report, maintain or provide gender pay information. In doing, it shows whether employers must publicly report such information, report it on a non-public basis, provide it on request, or are not subject to any specific gender pay reporting obligations.
The gender pay gap is the difference between the average gross hourly earnings of male and female paid employees, expressed as a percentage of the average gross hourly earnings of male employees.
In this map, we explore the different frameworks adopted by countries across the globe.
Meanwhile, major changes to gender pay reporting are on the way in the European Union, due to the Pay Transparency Directive. For further information on the current status of transposition of this directive across the EU Member States, please see our dedicated Pay Transparency Directive map.
