## Resource

The EU’s pay transparency law, meant to close the gender pay gap, missed its June 7 deadline—with Ireland among the laggards. This delay costs women billions annually, as companies aren’t required to disclose salary ranges or gender pay gaps until a new portal launches by November. Despite promises from officials, workers still can’t legally demand pay equity details, and unions are threatening legal action. For 43 million women, this inaction means losing over 28 billion euros in potential earnings—equivalent to 628 euros per woman per year.
