Inflation. Job stability. Work-life balance. Trade unions and employers have to deal with all kinds of issues. They do so through collective bargaining, by negotiating collective agreements or contracts that regulate wages and working conditions. They can do so through single-employer or multi-employer bargaining. UNI Europpa is focussing its effords in promoting multi-employer or sectoral bargaining because it helps improve working conditions, in a coordinated way; because when multiple employers are involved, all groups benefit. This does not only apply to workers and trade unions. Employers and the whole society benefit as well.
Workers negotiating their working conditions with employers through their trade unions is a good. But when they do so for many companies at the same time, the outcomes are even better. Multi-employer bargaining, or setting minimum conditions for comparable companies through negotiations, has benefits for workers, trade unions, employers and society at large!
