Euroufound: Challenges and solutions - Case studies on European Works Councils

This working paper, prepared by IR Share, investigates the practical implementation of the European Works Council (EWC) Directive at company level. It explores the challenges faced by existing EWCs and provides examples of solutions identified and remaining issues from the point of view of both workers and management. In addition, the paper looks at how EWCs meet the requirements of the EWC Directive in terms of establishing processes of information and consultation. Using case studies, it also examines the extent to which such effective collaboration has gone beyond the EWC Directive’s requirements to establish joint work on other issues of common concern.

IR Notes: EWC reaction to the Covid crisis-19

21/04/2020. In addition to IR Notes n°138 we have again contacted EWC secretaries on the consequences of the pandemic. Here is a summary of our analysis, which is available in full in French (it will be completed in the coming days with the testimonies received after the closure of IR Notes). We are also providing this English version translated via Deepl, which is of much lower quality than IR Notes, but which may help you. Do not hesitate to share your initiatives and testimonials with us to enrich our analysis (frederic.t@irshare.eu).
