3/1999: Towards revision of the European works councils directive
Description
In the run-up to the revision of the Directive on European Works Councils, on the EU agenda for autumn 1999, contributors to this edition of the ETUI quarterly journal TRANSFER assess the experience gained since 1994. Hardly surprisingly, it emerges that developments with EWCs have differed quite considerably from one country to another and from one sector to another. Yet nowhere have the hopes and expectations linked to adoption of the Directive been fully realised.
Contributors to this issue of TRANSFER offer a range of proposals as to how the revision might be used for the introduction of new or amended provisions that could help to remedy some of the shortcomings observed.
