Representativeness of the European social partner organisations: Electricity sector

This study provides information allowing for an assessment of the representativeness of the actors involved in the European sectoral social dialogue committee for the electricity sector. Their relative representativeness legitimises their right to be consulted, their role and effective participation in the European sectoral social dialogue and their capacity to negotiate agreements.The aim of Eurofound’s studies on representativeness is to identify the relevant national and European social partner organisations in the EU Member States. This study identifies IndustriALL and EPSU as the representative social partner organisations for the trade unions and Eurelectric as the representative social partner organisation for the employers in the electricity sector.
