Employee co-determination in European jurisdictions: France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands and Poland

Tuesday, 7 April 2020 at 5 pm CET
Co-determination is the practice of workers of an enterprise having the right to vote for representatives on the board of directors in a company. It also refers to staff having binding rights in work councils on issues in their workplace. Co-determination primarily exists: to reduce management-labour conflict by improving and systematizing communication channels; to increase bargaining power of workers at the expense of owners by means of legislation; and to correct market failures by means of public policy. In this webinar the speakers will provide insight in the co-determination differences and pitfalls in Germany, France, Italy, The Netherlands and Poland.

Speakers :

• - Florence Aubonnet (Flichy Grangé in France)
• - Marcello Buzzini (LABLAW in Italy)
