Belgium is advancing in the implementation of the EU Pay Transparency Directive through local regional laws. The Fédération Wallonie, Bruxelles adopted measures on 12 September 2024, which will be effective for the public sector starting from 1 January 2025, while regulations concerning the private sector remain undeveloped as of early 2026. Reports indicate a general consensus that the implementation of the Pay Transparency Directive predominantly affects the public sector within the FWB region. Sources confirm that legal measures are in place in this area and suggest that additional regulations related to the private sector are under consideration by local authorities. Despite agreement on the public sector initiatives, there are differing perspectives on the timelines for establishing private sector regulations. Various accounts highlight uncertainties regarding the status of draft legislation for private sector compliance, indicating the possibility of delays in this area.
