Eurocadres votes unanimously to push forward the Report on Democracy at Work
Eurocadres, the confederation of unions representing 6 million managerial and professional staff across the European Union, voted unanimously to push forward the implementation of the Report on Democracy at Work, commissioned by the Spanish Government. Its declaration states that workplace democracy goes beyond information and consultation rights and requires effective worker participation in decisions that shape working conditions and the future of organisations.
Speaking to the delegates at the CGIL headquarters, Isabelle Ferreras presented the Report’s key findings: the absence of workers’ voice and ownership in the structure of the firm lies at the centre of today’s crises, from inequality and climate collapse to the crisis of AI and of democracy.
Eurocadres calls on unions to make democracy at work a priority, to campaign on the seven recommendations of the Committee over this European mandate, and to introduce measures against the opaque use of AI in the workplace, including algorithmic management.
