This study provides information allowing for an assessment of the representativeness of the actors involved in the European sectoral social dialogue committee for the local and regional government (LRG) sector, including social services. Their relative representativeness legitimises their right to be consulted, their role and effective participation in European sectoral social dialogue and their capacity to negotiate agreements. The aim of Eurofound’s representativeness studies is to identify the relevant national and European social partner organisations in the field of industrial relations in the EU Member States and the United Kingdom. This study identified the Council of European Municipalities and Regions (CEMR) (representing employers) and the European Federation of Public Service Unions (EPSU) (representing employees) as the most representative European-level social partner organisations in the LRG sector. The European Confederation of Independent Trade Unions (CESI) also have affiliated trade unions in the sector in several Member States.

This report presents the results of research conducted largely prior to the outbreak of COVID-19 in Europe in February 2020. For this reason, the results do not fully take account of the outbreak.

Tutkimuksiin, jotka on tehty ennen Yhdistyneen kuningaskunnan eroa Euroopan unionista 31. tammikuuta 2020 ja jotka julkaistaan tämän ajankohdan jälkeen, voi sisältyä tietoa, joka koskee EU:n 28 jäsenvaltiota. Tämän ajankohdan jälkeen tutkimuksissa otetaan huomioon vain EU:n 27 jäsenvaltiota (ilman Yhdistynyttä kuningaskuntaa), ellei toisin mainita.

Part of the series

  • Sectoral social dialogue

    Eurofound's representativeness studies are designed to allow the European Commission to identify the ‘management and labour’ whom it must consult under article 154 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU). This series consists of studies of the representativeness of employer and worker organisations in various sectors.
