Greece is currently addressing the alignment of its policies with the EU Pay Transparency Directive. While efforts are underway, including the formation of a working group to guide this process, there has been no formal announcement or progression toward draft legislation, leading to uncertainty regarding the timeline for compliance. There is a general agreement among sources that Greece has not yet established a formal legislative framework for implementing the EU Directive. This consensus reflects the ongoing early stages of policy alignment, with no updates or timelines shared publicly. Despite the overall lack of significant progress, there are indications of preparatory activities, such as a pilot project initiated by the Ministry of Social Cohesion. This initiative, which is EU, funded, aims to test specific provisions of the directive, highlighting some movement despite the predominant view of limited advancement toward full implementation.
