Repræsentativitet
Repræsentativitet er det udtryk, som Europa-Kommissionen bruger til at bestemme de legitime deltagere i den sociale dialog, jf. artikel 154/155 i traktaten om Den Europæiske Unions funktionsmåde (TEUF). For at kvalificere sig skal organisationerne relatere til specifikke sektorer eller kategorier og være organiseret på europæisk plan, have medlemsorganisationer, der er anerkendte og en integreret del af en medlemsstats sociale partnerskabsstruktur, med kapacitet til at forhandle aftaler, og have passende strukturer til at sikre effektiv deltagelse i høringsprocesser.

Repræsentativitet for de europæiske sociale partnerorganisationer: Landbrugssektoren – 2026
Denne undersøgelse giver information, der muliggør en vurdering af repræsentativiteten af de organisationer, der er involveret i det europæiske sektorielle sociale dialogudvalg for landbrugssektoren. Deres relative repræsentativitet legitimerer deres ret til at blive konsulteret og deres evne til at forhandle aftaler. Formålet med Eurofounds studier om repræsentativitet er at identificere de relevante nationale og europæiske sociale partnerorganisationer i sektoren. Denne undersøgelse identificerer European Federation of Food, Agriculture and Tourism Trade Unions (EFFAT), som repræsenterer medarbejdere, og Arbejdsgivergruppen for Professionelle Landbrugsorganisationer i Den Europæiske Union / Komitéen for Professionelle Landbrugsorganisationer i Den Europæiske Union (GEOPA-COPA), der repræsenterer arbejdsgivere, som de mest repræsentative europæiske sociale partnerorganisationer i landbrugssektoren.
Repræsentativitet for de europæiske sociale partnerorganisationer: Sukkerproduktionssektoren – 2026
Denne undersøgelse giver information, der muliggør en vurdering af repræsentativiteten af aktørerne i det europæiske sektorielle sociale dialogudvalg for sukkerindustrien.Representativeness of the European social partner organisations: Personal services sector – 2026
This study provides information allowing for an assessment of the representativeness of the actors involved in the European sectoral social dialogue committee for the personal services sector.Eurofound gennemfører undersøgelser af repræsentativiteten af de europæiske sektororganisationer for arbejdsmarkedets parter i overensstemmelse med den anmodning, det modtog fra Kommissionen i 2006.
Disse repræsentativitetsundersøgelser gennemføres på tværs af flere sektorer og har til formål at tilvejebringe de grundlæggende oplysninger, der er nødvendige for oprettelsen og driften af de europæiske sektorudvalg for social dialog. Forskningen har til formål at identificere de relevante nationale og europæiske arbejdsmarkedsorganisationer i hver sektor inden for arbejdsmarkedsrelationer i EU's medlemsstater.
Et årti efter den første gennemførelse af disse undersøgelser analyserede Eurofound det europæiske repræsentativitetsbegrebog gennemgik nøgleelementer såsom valgsucces, organisatorisk styrke med hensyn til medlemskab og forhandlingsevne. Analysen kan bidrage til diskussionen om, hvorvidt elementer af Eurofounds metode i dets repræsentativitetsundersøgelser skal justeres.
På EU-plan afgrænsede Europa-Kommissionen første gang begrebet repræsentativitet i 1993 og definerede det tydeligere i 1998 i sin afgørelse 98/500/EF om nedsættelse af sektordialogudvalg. Repræsentativitet danner grundlaget for at gøre det muligt for de europæiske arbejdsmarkedsorganisationer at blive optaget på listen over organisationer, der skal høres af Kommissionen, jf. artikel 154 i TEUF, og for at sikre juridisk bindende gennemførelse af deres aftaler, jf. artikel 155 i TEUF. Repræsentativitet legitimerer deres rolle og effektive deltagelse i de europæiske sektorudvalg for social dialog. Det handler også om at have kapacitet til at forhandle, hvilket er afgørende i forhandlinger, der fører til aftaler, der gennemføres ved rådsafgørelse.

Industrial relations landscape in Europe
This report analyses and compares the industrial relations landscape in several sectors and activities that form a public service cluster across the 27 EU Member States and the UK – altogether employing over 57 million workers and representing 25% of the total workforce in the economy. It is based on Eurofound’s representativeness studies on the central government administration (CGA), education, human health, local and regional government (LRG), and social services sectors. The landscape includes over 500 national trade unions and around 400 employer organisations across the public services sectors, with the highest numbers of trade unions and employer organisations found in the human health sector. The aim of the study is to contribute to a better understanding of the overall industrial relations landscape of employer and union organisations in a number of sectors, while helping social partners in these sectors to further strengthen their social dialogue and build capacity.
