legitnyhr

legitnyhr helps Polish employers meet the EU Pay Transparency Directive (2023/970). We evaluate every job, build the grading structure and produce the gender pay-gap report the law requires, with an evidence trail that holds up in a labour inspection.

I co-founded it with Magdalena Raniszewska, Karolina Rychter and Marcin Ostrowski. I own the methodology: the job-evaluation instrument, the rationale behind every score, the worker categories and the statistics of the pay-gap report. Magdalena covers employment law and data protection, Karolina the tax and cost side of pay policy, and Marcin the technology.

What a client gets

• A job-evaluation method fitted to the organization, with a written rationale for every score
• A grading structure with clear, non-overlapping pay bands
• Worker categories and the gender pay-gap report required by Article 9 of the directive
• A PDF evidence package the client owns and can defend to the labour inspectorate

Every engagement keeps a full version history, so the numbers regenerate identically months later. In 2026 we are running an engagement for an enterprise client of about 200 employees, and the same process scales with the number of roles.

Why a psychometrician

Job evaluation is measurement applied to roles. The directive requires jobs to be compared on skills, effort, responsibility and working conditions, and turning those four into a scale that rates a production line, an engineering team and a board fairly is a psychometric problem. So we treat it as one: the method locks once scoring starts, every score carries a written rationale, and the pay-gap statistics are tested against the published Polish reference until they reproduce it exactly. It is the same discipline I use to validate assessments at Gyfted.

Why now

Polish employers report on the 2027 calendar year, with reports due 7 June 2028, and fines run from 2,000 to 60,000 PLN. Evaluating several hundred roles takes months, so the method has to be in place before the reporting year starts. The work needs legal accuracy and statistical defensibility together, and legitnyhr puts both under one roof. We work in Polish and English; the full offer is at legitnyhr.com.
