Background of the project
Since 2000, the European Industrial Relations Observatory (EIRO), has carried out comparative studies on industrial relations developments in the EU, the USA and Japan. For the last two years these studies have been extended to Brazil and China, and this year to India.
Objectives
The purpose of this workshop – which will include experts and practitioners from social partner organisations, public authorities and research organisations - is to compare trends and developments in different global regions and their impact on the European industrial relations systems.
Two thematic workshops will focus on Temporary agency work and Industrial relations in SMEs. The Foundation will publish a report with the main findings of the workshop in spring 2007.
