Opinion: changing the rules of public procurement can deliver for essential workers

Opinion: changing the rules of public procurement can deliver for essential workers

 

Five Members of the European Parliament from different political groups have co-authored an opinion piece backing UNI Europa’s Procuring Decent Work campaign. They make the case for a change to EU public procurement rules and call for public contracts to only go to companies that have collective bargaining agreements with their workers.

They are: Dennis Radtke (EPP), Agnes Jongerius (S&D), Irena Joveva (Renew), Kim van Sparrentak (Greens/EFA) and Nikolaj Villumsen (GUE/NGL).

Their opinion piece is available in English, French and Spanish.
