-On March 8, 2017, the Icelandic Government announced to introduce a new law in order to close the wage gap. A bill of law (amendments to the Gender Equality Act No. 10/2008) was passed by the Parliament on June 1st, 2017 and came into force on January 1st, 2018. This law requires companies with more than 25 employees to proove on annual basis that wages are fair. Therefore they will be required to obtain equal pay certification of their equal pay system and the implementation thereof. The central goal of this legislative initiative is to close the wage gap entirely by 2022. The law should enter into effect by 2020.
