In defense of workers

🤩 Rebalance company-level social dialogue NOW! INDEWO 💪 and its partners Syndex, LBBa and Progress Lawyers Network release a new booklet on EXPERTISE FOR EWC MEMBERS. EWC members can get external support from tradre unionists, lawyers, finance analysists and other professionals to check management information and provide quality opinions. At a time when restructurings and job cuts are skyrocketing, workers participation is fundamental to influence management plans✊. Check out the 🎁10 company cases and find new ideas and pathways for your EWC! This booklet is the result of a two-year project supported by the #ETUC and funded by the E.U. Several ETUFs provided critical information to make this happen. https://lnkd.in/eng6jFDT

Great success in Rome final conference. Indewo facilitated discussions to identify relevant expertise for stronger EWCs, in cooperation with Syndex, Progress Lawyers Network and LBBa and ETUC.

https://lnkd.in/dfr8JHbG A event of the ETUC with the support of INDEWO and CVB.

Indewo, European Trade Union Confederation & Centre Vidéo de Bruxelles are pleased to invite you to the screening of A CHAINED REVOLUTION - a film by Théo Sixou: today, many companies use legal loopholes, making human rights violations the norm rather than the exception in supply chains around the world. It leaves the victims of crimes committed by these companies – workers and communities – trapped in a legal maze seeking justice. Workers are raising their voices, demanding a role in securing supply chains. Citizens across Europe can no longer tolerate this injustice. How can we shift from profit-driven priorities to preventing violations? European citizens are rallying for change! Unions, workers, NGOs and politicians are now knocking on the doors of the European Union to strengthen corporate accountability and democracy at work. https://lnkd.in/dc_e-W78

The European Commission has proposed new improvements to the 2009 EWC Directive: https://lnkd.in/e2YiMaMP The lawyers and experts in the INDEWO network help workers representatives and trade unionists to defend their transnational rights for worker participation.
