The factors for attracting and retaining talent are increasingly diverse and go beyond salary. One thing in common? Personalisation.

Finland announced that it is preparing a law that allows citizens access to the salaries of their co-workers whenever they suspect discrimination. Transparency, also applied to salaries, is a tendency to reduce inequalities: in which stage are we in Portugal?

The definition is vast, experts assure. Emotional salary is defined by how employees feel motivated and involved with the organisation and describes much more than the remuneration paid by each company to its people as a reward for their work. Gym classes, yoga classes, a comfortable office, remote work budget, team activities or informal get-togethers are often drivers of better involvement of people with organisations, creating a culture of cooperation and collaboration that raises the emotional salary every month.
