In its communication of March 17, the European Commission evaluates the implementation in Member States of Directive 2002/14/EC on information and consultation of employees. In spite of a few troubles in its implementation, the Commission thinks that it is too soon to amend it. (Ref. 080228)
State and problems in implementing. As planned in Directive 2002/14, the Commission consulted Member States and European social partners on the enforcement of this text to examine a possible revision. Therefore, in its communication, it issued a report. According to this report, only a few Member States implemented the Directive in time (France, Hungary, the Netherlands, Portugal, Slovakia, Finland and Great Britain). The Commission thus initiated an infringement procedure against several states (Italy, Belgium, Luxembourg, Greece).
