Composed of members of the local trade unions <strong>Union Syndicale Petten (US\u2011Petten)<\/strong> and <strong>FFPE Petten<\/strong>, the seven candidate pairs collected <strong>more than 80% of the votes<\/strong>, improving the 2023 result by almost six percentage points.<\/p>\n<p>These elections confirm the strong result achieved in 2023, when the same coalition succeeded in electing six candidate pairs led by US\u2011Petten and one pair led by FFPE\u2011Petten.<\/p>\n<p>In a clear demonstration of its commitment to representing all colleagues, the newly elected committee brings together staff from a broad range of contract types and from the large majority of units on site. This inclusive approach is further reflected in a <strong>gender\u2011balanced composition<\/strong> and a <strong>broad geographical representation<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting both dynamism and the high level of staff turnover at the JRC, the new committee includes <strong>eight new members<\/strong>, half of whom will serve as full members. Among the incumbents, half will continue their engagement as deputies, ensuring continuity alongside renewal.<\/p>\n<p>The election result is not only a strong endorsement of the <strong>high\u2011quality work carried out by US\u2011Petten and the outgoing committee<\/strong>, but also recognition of the effective <strong>synergies within the Union Syndicale F\u00e9d\u00e9ration (USF)<\/strong>. In particular, the regular visits of <strong>USF representatives<\/strong>, who presented and discussed a range of specific topics of direct relevance to colleagues in Petten, have strengthened coordination, information sharing, and collective action across sites.<\/p>\n<p>This renewed mandate reinforces the responsibility of <strong>United for Petten<\/strong> to continue defending the integrity of the site, representing staff interests with determination, and supporting every colleague with professionalism and solidarity.<\/p>\n<p>In solidarity,<\/p>\n<p>Vaida Rukaite Drazdove and Jean-Pierre Schosger<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_huge\"><\/div><div class=\"w-image nocorners align_center\"><div class=\"w-image-h\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/unionsyndicale.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Picture1-1024x576.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/unionsyndicale.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Picture1-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/unionsyndicale.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Picture1-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/unionsyndicale.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Picture1.png 1039w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_huge with_line width_50 thick_1 style_solid color_primary align_center\"><div class=\"w-separator-h\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_col-sm-2 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_auto\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The coalition United for Petten were the clear winners of the elections for the local staff committee in Petten. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8601,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[],"dossier-special":[],"class_list":["post-8602","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
