Summary:

This unique book offers a comprehensive systematization and overview of the EU´s emerging 'acquis' and practice of Collective Labour Law. Although the core aspects of Collective Labour Law lie outside the EU's competence to regulate, the laws and industrial relations systems of Member States are undoubtedly influenced by the EU, and the involvement of Social Partners, i.e. representatives of employers and workers, is essential for many aspects of EU law and policy.
