    On Tuesday, 14 April 2026, the Commission together with the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE) will present in the FEMM Committee the updated EU-wide guidelines on gender-neutral job evaluation and classification.

    On 26 March 2026, the European Institute for Gender Equality (EIGE), together with the European Commission, launched updated EU-wide guidelines on gender-neutral job evaluation and classification. This initiative supports the implementation of the EU Pay Transparency Directive, aiming to ensure equal pay for work of equal value across the EU. Designed as a practical step-by-step toolkit, the guidelines support organisations of all sizes in assessing and classifying jobs based on objective, gender-neutral criteria, including skills, responsibility, effort, and working conditions.
