Minister of Labor Catherine Vautrin announced on Friday a consultation to improve the index of professional equality between women and men. In addition, she indicated that the 2023 European directive would be transposed in 2025 instead of 2026.
Five years after its creation, the gender equality index within companies "has not fulfilled all its promises", criticized the High Council for Equality (HCE) on Thursday. In October, Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne proposed building a new “more ambitious, more transparent” index within 18 months.
