Industrial relations and sustainability: the role of social partners in the transition towards a green economy

This study examined best practice examples of social partner involvement in greening the economy in different Member States. It analysed the role of the trade unions and employers’ associations as well as employees, their direct representatives and company management in selected projects at national or local level. The report demonstrates what a successful contribution of the social partners to greening the economy can look like and identifies factors that need to be taken into consideration.
