Workers’ representatives in selected Central and Eastern European countries: Filling a gap in labour rights protection or trade union competition?

In this publication, ten legal scholars examine from different angles the research question whether elected workers’ representatives fill a gap in labour rights protection or represent trade union competition. For this purpose, the authors of the forthcoming chapters analyse the participation of elected workers’ representatives in workplace cooperation, including information & consultation, grievance handling, occupational safety and health (OSH) committees, as well as their role in collective bargaining. Moreover, they
look at the relationship between unionized workers’ representatives and elected workers’ representatives, including works councils. Finally, some of them share their views whether elected workers’ representatives could become a collective voice on digital labour platforms.
