On April 12, the international high-technology equipment manufacturer signed its first amendment to the EWC agreement of 2008, in order to add the novelties of the recast Directive 2009/38. Here are a few comments on this review. (Ref. 130614)
Transnational character. The agreement provides that the EWC receives transnational information, defined as “a topic involving at least two facilities or two companies in the Group included in the scope of the European Works Council […] and located in two different Member States and [involving] issues at the European level in the economic, financial and social fields which, by their global and transnational character, are of interest to at least two facilities or two companies in the Group [and] located in a different State.”
