Trade unions and other labour supporters are continuing their push for greater worker involvement in company decisions, now labelling this as an effort for “more democracy at work.” They want to see this topic play a larger role on the EU’s agenda, particularly at the upcoming Porto Social Summit.
This year should be “the year for more democracy at work,” the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC) declared in a press release in March.
More specifically, this term means “informing, consulting, and allowing workers to participate in the decision-making processes of businesses for the aim of improving working conditions and anticipating the business development and their impacts on workers,” the ETUC’s Confederal Secretary, Isabelle Schömann, explained in an interview with EURACTIV.
