Works councils and representatives
For works councils and workers' representatives
What the directive gives you, what you see in Paritir, and how to check what your employer shares with you.
The Directive
What the directive gives you
Workers' right to pay information
Employees can ask for the average pay of workers doing the same work or work of equal value, broken down by sex. Employers must tell staff about this right, and pay-secrecy clauses that block it are banned.
The joint pay assessment
Where reporting shows an average gap of at least 5% in a category of equal work, and it isn't justified on objective grounds or closed within six months, the employer must carry out a joint pay assessment with workers' representatives.
In Paritir
What you see in Paritir
Workers' representatives get their own portal. They sign the sealed job-evaluation criteria, file Article 7 requests, and record positions or objections on the joint pay assessment.
Your access comes from your employer: they appoint workers' representatives in Paritir, and each gets their own login to the representatives' portal.
The job-evaluation survey
Answers stay anonymous
One response per invitation, via a single-use credential. The link between a person and their answers is deleted when the survey closes.
Evidence
Check a report yourself
Anyone can check a signed evidence pack at app.paritir.com/verify, without logging in. The file is hashed in your browser and never uploaded. How checking works
