The rights of workers to be informed and consulted on decisions that affect their working conditions is a crucial right. Indeed, it is protected by the European Charter of Fundamental Rights, part of the European Pillar of Social Rights, and enshrined in the EU Treaties. In this context, more than a thousand European Works Councils (EWCs) were created following the adoption of Council Directive 94/45/EC of 22 September 1994 on the establishment of a European Works Council.
