Representativeness studies are used to assess whether the employers’ organisations and trade unions united in the European Sectoral Social Dialogue Committees, formed by the European Commission, sufficiently represent sectoral employers and employees in the different EU Member States and if they have the mandate to negotiate on behalf of their members. Representativeness studies also serve to identify potential other organisations to be included in the Committee. Based on the information collected by Eurofound’s Network of National Correspondents, Panteia will create a database, analyse the figures and prepare an overview report.
