It’s also illegal in EU as far as I can tell. Individuals can disclose their salaries, but it can’t be mandated by the employer.

Personally, I can’t see any good outcome of that and I care about the good job that the RIPE/RIPE NCC does and I trust the people in charge to make rational decisions about the salaries.

That's not a good argument. Disclosure of individual salaries is de facto the global standard for transparency.
