A ban is set to be implemented to employers asking the question.
A Westmeath recruiter says companies in the Midlands should stop asking about past or current salaries in job interviews.
A new directive from the EU is set to kick in next year, that will ban employers from asking the question.
It will also require specific salaries to be published when advertising a new position.
Breda Dooley of Matrix Recruitment says small steps can be taken to ensure businesses are prepared when it kicks in:
