Even if this gets approved, it still requires all the member states to change their laws.

Luckily for me, I already live in one of EU members that have such law in place. Allows me to discard job postings under my salary range.

Some job postings still have x - 5x ranges, but knowing the industry salaries, depending on how component the person is, I believe that it's actually the true range.

Seems like member states have 2 years to implement it, not sure what happens if they don't.

The EU can take them to court. But most of the time the process is fairly automatic and member states just do it (they may be a little late occasionally)
