The Union rejects the EU Pay Transparency Directive. CDU and CSU politicians are urging the federal government to push for the withdrawal of the regulation in Brussels, as reported by WELT.

The directive is intended to, among other things, disclose salary differences between men and women. The Union sees no discernible added value for gender equality in this.
