Ask your employer to set up a European Works Council

You can ask your employer to set up a European Works Council (EWC) if you work for a company with offices across the European Economic Area (EEA).

An EWC is a forum where your company can:

tell you about plans and decisions at the same time as employees in other countries – this is known as being informed
exchange views with you in the same way as employees in other countries – this is known as being consulted

An EWC only informs and consults on issues that affect more than one country where the business operates.
