Around half of employees in Slovakia have very little information about their salary, with just a quarter being aware of the salary ranges between positions at the company they work for, while nearly no one has access to information about gaps in pay between men and women.
This stems from a survey carried out by the Platy.sk website in April 2026 among 2,426 respondents.

“A large part of the workforce in Slovakia does not know the rules used for their salaries; they cannot compare their salaries with the market and in fact no one has access to information about gender differences in remuneration,” Miroslav Dravecký, product manager at Platy.sk, which is part of the recruitment agency Alma Career Slovakia, said in a press release.
