Brussels, 25 January 2016
Dear Mr Kongstad,
Union Syndicale Fédérale (USF) is deeply shocked to hear about the latest, disproportionate measures against trade union officials taken at the European Patent Office (EPO) in January 2016 …
Prevention is not optional. It is a legal requirement and an essential part of ensuring safe working conditions for all.
Union Syndicale Fédérale stands with EPSU in calling for stronger EU public procurement rules and greater tax transparency
To fulfil its role as a defender of staff, a trade union is obliged, first and foremost, to defend its credibility when this is compromised, and its own means of action when these are denied to it.
