Directive (EU) 2024/1500 establishes standards for equality bodies to promote equal treatment and equal opportunities between women and men in matters of employment and occupation. This directive aims to harmonise the operational standards and practices across EU member states, ensuring that all equality bodies are equipped to effectively enforce gender equality laws. It emphasises the importance of independence, effectiveness, and adequate resourcing of these bodies to tackle discrimination and support victims.
Through the enforcement of these standards, Directive (EU) 2024/1500 aims to ensure a more equitable working environment across all EU member states, thereby enhancing the overall work culture and productivity.
