Comparing what is actually comparable

Article 4 of Directive 2023/970 requires roles to be compared on four objective criteria - not on job title or length of service alone. myHR structures this evaluation from the source.

01 · Skills

Knowledge & know-how

Qualifications, certifications, professional expertise required to hold the role.

ExamplesQualifications, languages, clearances, years of relevant experience.

02 · Effort

Workload & demands

Physical, mental and emotional intensity required by the role.

ExamplesCognitive load, difficult customer interactions, manual lifting, sustained concentration.

03 · Responsibility

Decision & impact

Decision-making autonomy, people management, budget responsibility.

ExamplesTeams managed, budget managed, legal or safety accountability.

04 · Working conditions

Work environment

Physical constraints, working hours, travel, arduous conditions.

ExamplesNight work, frequent travel, exposure, noise, imposed pace.

5% action threshold

Beyond a 5% unjustified gap, the employer must act

The Directive requires a joint pay assessment with workers' representatives when a pay gap above 5% cannot be justified by objective criteria. myHR orchestrates this procedure from end to end.

Mandatory EU threshold: > 5 % unjustified gap
  1. 01
    Automatic detection of gaps > 5%

    myHR flags the job categories above the threshold, with a breakdown of contributing factors (bonuses, length of service, equivalent role).

  2. 02
    Documented justification by objective criterion

    Enter justifications for each detected gap, grounded in the Art. 4 criteria (skills, effort, responsibility, working conditions). Full traceability.

  3. 03
    Joint pay assessment if no justification is possible

    Trigger the joint pay assessment workflow with the staff delegation. Schedule, meeting minutes and action plan all logged inside myHR.

  4. 04
    Year-on-year action plan tracking

    Progress measured, comparison with the previous reporting year, automatic update of the gaps in the Article 9 report.
