Beyond Pay Transparency: What Happens Next?

Alex Galea, Lara Farrugia, Olivia Rossi, Christine Gingell - September 14, 2026

With Malta’s pay transparency requirements now in force, many employers have completed, or are currently undertaking, job evaluation exercises.

But completing the exercise is only part of the picture.

How roles are evaluated, how categories of work are established, and the evidence behind those decisions all matter when it comes to demonstrating equal work and work of equal value.

Join legal, HR and business leaders as we look beyond compliance and explore what it takes for job evaluation to stand up to scrutiny.
