Communiqué de presse du PSE
Europe Needs a social turn, and the European pillar of social rights indicates the right direction. Its proclamation is essential for a Europe closer to its citizens.
The Social Summit of 17 November in Göteborg will be a defining moment for a more social Europe.
The PES Social Europe Network, gathering representative of PES member parties, trade unions and the Civil Society reiterated its support for a European pillar of Social Rights with these words. They came as the conclusion of an intense exchange on the rise of inequalities in Europe, the revision of the Posting of Workers’ Directive and the need to combat precarious work and dumping in transport and in the provision of cross border services, notably in the context of the services e-card proposal.
