EU: the social partners of the textile, clothing, leather and footwear adopt their work program

ral social dialogue committees of the textile-clothing, leather and footwear sectors adopted their work programs for 2009. Anticipating industrial change is at the heart of the textile-clothing sector with the implementation of recommendations on the subject and the creation of a network of observatories on trades and skills throughout Europe. (Ref. 090178)

The texts adopted by the three sectors specify that these work programs are supported “by the social partners at national level” and are part of a “will to better articulate autonomous sectoral social dialogue at European level, dialogue at national level and interprofessional dialogue at European level.”
