Slovenia pay transparency status
Last reviewed 2026-10-16
No published transposing law
Slovenia has no published transposing statute in the 23 September 2026 snapshot. This page is a thin status note and is not promoted.
Slovenia (Slovenija, SI), capital Ljubljana, EU member since 2004. Snapshot: An internal draft law was submitted by the Ministry of Labor to the Economic and Social Council in February 2026 but has yet to be published.
What applies by employer size
Nothing in these size bands is current national law in Slovenia. They restate the Directive floor so a reader can see what transposition would impose. A draft, an internal text, or a government target date is not an employer duty.
Fewer than 100 workers
Article 9 gender pay-gap reporting does not start below 100 workers. Article 5 (pay range or starting pay for applicants, and no pay-history questions) and Article 7 (worker right to pay-level information) are not limited to employers of 100 or more. That is the Directive floor, not a statement that the Member State already imposes it.
100 to 149 workers
Article 9 requires the employer to report the gender pay gap every three years. The Directive sets the first report for 7 June 2031. Joint pay assessment under Article 10 can follow an unjustified gap of at least 5 percent. National law must transpose the duty before it binds a private employer.
150 to 249 workers
Article 9 requires the employer to report the gender pay gap every three years. The Directive sets the first report for 7 June 2027. The same Article 10 joint-assessment rule can apply. National law must transpose the duty before it binds a private employer.
250 or more workers
Article 9 requires the employer to report the gender pay gap every year. The Directive sets the first report for 7 June 2027. The same Article 10 joint-assessment rule can apply. National law must transpose the duty before it binds a private employer.
