(Lionel Fulton, Labour Research department, 15.12.2005)
Twenty-two out of 28 EEA states have now transposed the Directive on employee involvement in European Companies. This table shows the composition of the Special Negotiating Body and the role that external trade union members can play in all 22 states. It also provides information on the draft proposals for three other states.

ARTICLE: Anchoring the European Company in national law (Lionel Fulton, Labour Research Department)
This report examines the progress that had been made by the beginning of December 2005 on implementing the legislation in the 28 EEA states. It finds that, while much progress has been made, there are still some states that are lagging behind. It also looks at how the legislation that provides for the involvement of employees has been implemented. Here it finds that although there are large areas where national legislation closely follows the EU-wide model, there are other areas where there are important differences between member states.

The transpostion laws of the SE Directive on worker involvement can be downloaded from the EU Commission website.
