Our aims for Collective Bargaining in 2009-2014
(9 June 2009, Brussels) For the congress period 2009-2014, in the area of collective bargaining, EPSU have unanimously adopted the following resolution:
The resolution affirms the principles and objectives that EPSU affiliates commit to in the field of collective bargaining, including:
- ensuring that social justice, trade union and human rights take preference over competition rules and trade in Europe and elsewhere
- that global competition is directly effecting public service workers as social dumping undermines the protection afforded by collective agreements
- that strong and effective trade unions are essential to collective bargaining
- that trade union rights, collective bargaining and social dialogue need to be developed and defended as part of the European social model.
