Position paper of ETUC on the European Pillar of Social Rights

Following widespread consultation, and debate in the Executive Committee, ETUC has drawn up a position paper on the EU Pillar of Social Rights.

The paper sets out the ETUC’s observations and recommendations on the EU Pillar of Social Rights at the halfway point of the consultation process and summarises the ETUC demands under seven priority areas.

  1. A fairer economy for quality job creation
  2. A pay rise for fairness at work and economic justice
  3. Improved enforcement of existing rights and establishing new rights
  4. Fair mobility
  5. Secure labour market transitions
  6. Social protection and strong public services
  7. Institutional change to ensure equal emphasis on promoting Social Europe
ETUC points out in the paper that as the title of the initiative explicitly refers to ‘social rights’, the EU Pillar should therefore enforce the rights elaborated inter alias in the European Social Charter.
