Together with distinguished speakers such as IKEA's former Chief Sustainability Officer Steve Howard, and European Commission Director General for Climate Mauro Petriccione, we will demonstrate how our industry is at the forefront of climate change mitigation thanks to its natural resources, processes and final products.

 

 

We are happy to announce that the 2019 AEIP Annual Conference will take place on the 6th of November on the topic of: Social Dialogue and the Paritarian Model: Added Value in a Changing Labour Market. The event will take place in Brussels in the Square Brussels Convention Centre (Address: Mont des Arts, 1000, Brussels).

 

The power of collective bargaining to regulate labour markets and to ensure a more equal income distribution has long been proven in Europe. It is an essential element of a social market economy. It secures fair wages and prevents the most vulnerable from falling into precariousness and poverty. Today, many European countries need to strengthen their collective bargaining systems in order to make sure that a large majority of workers will (again) enjoy the protection of agreements.
