Board-level employee representation in Europe
September 1998
This comparative study provides a brief summary and overview of the legislation and other general regulations on board-level employee representation in the EU Member States and Norway, adding empirical evidence on practice where available. The study also provides an overview of the national debates among the social partners regarding the European Company Statute and its possible implications for national systems of board-level representation.
The comparative study was compiled on the basis of individual national reports submitted by EIRO's national centres. The text of each of these national reports is available below in Word format. The reports have not been edited or approved by the European Foundation for the Improvement of Living and Working Conditions. The national reports were drawn up in response to a questionnaire and should be read in conjunction with it.
