A case study on the National General Collective Agreement (NGCA) from Greece: equal opportunities and collective bargaining in the European Union (Phase III)

The 1993 National General Collective Agreement (NGCA) was the first time that the term 'equal opportunities' has appeared in a Greek collective agreement. It is throughout the study such an exemplary case of collective bargaining that this report sheds light on the determining factors of a good outcome on equality. It also shows how such factors influenced the shaping of that outcome through the bargaining process. Like two earlier reports of the first and second phases of the research, this report seeks to equip the labour side and the employers with the knowledge and sensitivity that the promotion of equal opportunities through collective bargaining requires.
