The Commission's proposal on industrial policy is a step in the right direction, but the EU needs a long term, comprehensive strategy: this is one of the conclusions of the debate at the Employers' Group meeting on 6 December 2017. The aim of the debate was to contribute to two opinions on industrial policy that the EESC is currently working on.

The European Commission is proposing to revise the so-called Posting of Workers Directive from 1996, which affects some 2 million workers in the EU. Posted workers are employed in one Member State, but sent to work temporarily in another country by their employer. The general view of the EESC Employers' Group is that the existing EU legislation on the posting of workers - namely the original 1996 Posting Directive and the 2014 Enforcement Directive which aims to strengthen the practical implementation of the Posting Directive - strikes a proper and fair balance between supporting the cross-border provision of services and protecting the rights of posted workers.

Press Release
Reference number:
29/2019Euroopan talous- ja sosiaalikomitean teettämän uuden tutkimuksen mukaan rajatylittävät palvelut luovat uusia työpaikkoja ja talouskasvua, ja niillä on myönteinen vaikutus kaikkien EU-maiden sekä erityyppisten – niin työvoima- kuin osaamisintensiivisten – työpaikkojen kannalta. Tutkimus osoittaa, että tiukan sääntelyn välttäminen rajatylittävien palvelujen sisämarkkinoilla hyödyttää EU:n taloutta. Rajatylittävien palvelujen osuuden pieneneminen yhdellä prosentilla supistaisi EU:n taloutta noin kahdeksalla miljardilla eurolla.

The decline of employment in the European agriculture sector increases the need of EU and non-EU seasonal workers at peaks of planting and harvesting activities. EU citizens’ freedom and right to work across the Union allows the proper functioning of the market economy by providing labour where and when it is needed. Still, after 30 years of the single market, once seasonal workers arrive at their destination, they are subject to fragmented, often localised, employment arrangements and rules.
