Enel: EWC agreement renewed

Transnationality.  The agreement signed on December 16 by Enel’s management, the EWC and the EPSU and EMCEF union organizations contains the definition given in Directive 2009/38 which provides that the EWC is competent for matters which concern the entire group or at least two undertakings situated in two different Member States.  However, it adds a paragraph that reads, “Account shall also be taken of the matters which are particularly relevant for European workers in terms of their potential impact or which entail the transfer of activities between Member States (preamble, point 16 of Directive 20089/38/EC), with specific reference to the Group organizational changes.”
