ETUC Executive Committee meets on the eve of the European Council
With a number of important issues relating to the future of social Europe currently in the news, the Executive Committee of the European Trade Union Confederation (ETUC) meets in Brussels on Tuesday 6 and Wednesday 7 June, in advance of the June European Council, to consider its position on these questions.
The Committee, on which all ETUC-affiliated organisations in 36 European countries are represented, will assess the latest developments on issues such as the Services Directive, the period of reflection surrounding the EU Constitution, and working time legislation.
EU monetary policy will be high on the agenda. The ETUC has repeatedly urged the European Central Bank and euro-zone Member States to change their approach in order to sustain an emerging economic recovery.
The Executive will also examine items on the current European social dialogue agenda including violence and harassment at work, and implementation of the accord on teleworking.
