Why organise the employers ?They have to be
organised to do the dialogue and currently they
are not !

• Is this a paradox ?
• EU sectoral social dialogue was built this way
• Last example Hospeem
• It always takes time
• we do not see an added value
• EU process They do it in other countries
• If not us someone else will take the place
• ok

Who is competent ?

• Only structures, no individuals
• If individuals are competent, they have to create
  a structure
• Hability to negociate
• Legal hability v.s. effective hability
• Invite everyone and work with those structures
  which are interrested
• External audit but the EC (not anyone else) takes
  the final decision about representativity

How to push them ? Trade-Unions initiative can
mean troubles

• Compare with other countries, notably neibourgh
  countries
• Employers european networking, testimonies from
  foreign employers
• Not a trade-union project but an EU prospect
• Wanted by the EU institutions
• CEEP support
• Propose to the Ministry to take the lead ?
