Sweden is falling behind on EU labour law. The #PayTransparency Directive is delayed. The #PlatformWork Directive will almost certainly also be implemented after the deadline.

💬Social dialogue & collective bargaining are business assets, not compliance burdens. The Commission's CS3D guidelines should recognise their role in strengthening due diligence, improving risk prevention and supporting responsible business conduct. #CS3D #SocialDialogue

🚨 EU @eucouncil.bsky.social Legal Service slams @ec.europa.eu’s “EU Inc.” Says NO to Art. 114, YES to Art. 50 → must be a directive, not a regulation. Big rethink needed!

Swedish trade unions are urging the Swedish Gov. @ninalarsson.bsky.social to stop stalling on the #PayTransparency Directive and move ahead with implementing the EU’s new rules. www.di.se/debatt/reger...

Regeringens hantering inte seriös

DEBATT: Likalöneprincipen är central inom EU-rätten. Direktivet är inte perfekt men vi är övertygade om att det kan bidra positivt till arbetet för ökad…

🆕 @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social is finally set to unveil the long‑awaited follow‑up to the European Pillar of Social Rights 🧵 On 22 July 2026, the updated Action Plan lands. Will there be any surprises? #EPSR #SocialRights

👨‍⚖️@unionen.bsky.social welcomes the ICJ advisory opinion affirming the right to strike as fundamental under ILO Convention 87. Confirms long-standing ILO practice and strengthens global workers’ rights. Not binding, but carries major legal and political weight.

🗨️Today, at the @workers-eesc.bsky.social meeting, I voiced the concerns of the Swedish Trade Unions regarding the Swedish Gov/ @ninalarsson.bsky.social's decision to pause the implementation of @hadjalahbib.bsky.social & @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social #PayTransparency Directive.

📢 On Wednesday, Commissioner @teresaribera.ec.europa.eu will point to remote work as a short‑term measure to help reduce energy demand. 👩🏽‍💻 It is one ex. among several suggested to Member State, not an EU requirement, in response to the current #energy 🔋situation.

Psychosocial risks must be addressed 🧐 but MEP Ceulemans’ report goes too far. By prescribing how employers must delegate prevention tasks, it risks blurring accountability & weakening the core principle: management holds ultimate #OSH responsibility. 🛑Delete art. 15!

⚠️Swedish Gov. @ninalarsson.bsky.social wants to renegotiate the #PayTransparency Directive! She wants to delay implement. & push for simpler rules. Sweden’s bill to implement @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social & @hadjalahbib.bsky.social's dir. will not move forward. t.co/mJUCPLJW83

📣 At today’s joint meeting with @workers-eesc.bsky.social & @socialistsanddemocrats.eu in the @europarl.europa.eu, @president.europarl.europa.eu was called out for failing to schedule a meeting with Swedish trade unions ahead of her 27 March trip to Sweden. 👉 Will she step up?

🆕MEP Ceulemans’s draft report urging @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social to propose an EU directive on psychosocial risks is out! These risks matter, but must be tackled together with physical risks. 🧑🏽‍💻👷🏼‍♀️ Moving forward, the role of social partners in workplace health & safety must be safeguarded!

ℹ️EU’s #PayTransparency Directive requires Member States to implement it by 7 June 2026. The Swedish Government @ninalarsson.bsky.social has set the national implementation date to 1 January 2027, six months after the EU deadline. ⏲️ #GenderEquality #UnionOfEquality #BetterRegulation

📘EU har skärpt reglerna för info. & samråd i multinationella företag. Nu uppmanar @unionelections.bsky.social & 25 EWC‑representanter regeringen att se till att reglerna blir verklighet i Sverige. Det är dags att agera! ✊ www.altinget.se/artikel/star...

Starka företagsråd stärker både arbetsrätt och konkurrenskraft - Altinget

Efter åratal av otydliga regler skärper EU kraven på information och samråd i multinationella företag. Nu är det upp till Sverige att säkerställa att de nya reglerna omsätts i praktiken, skriver Union...

🤔Sometimes the EU “minimum level” isn’t as clear‑cut, feasible, or even desirable. A new @sieps.bsky.social analysis highlights why the shift away from going beyond EU rules is more complex than it seems. 🔗 sieps.se/publikatione...

👀All eyes tomorrow on President @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu! What new signals, if any, will she send in her opening speech at the launch of the 2026 European Employment & Social Rights Forum?

🛑The Council Presidency @cy2026eu.bsky.social's latest comproimse just hit the brakes on the most controversial parts of the GDPR revision, blocking changes seen as legally shaky, privacy‑eroding, risky for workers, and at odds with core GDPR principles!

😵‍💫Social partners @businesseurope.bsky.social & @etuc-ces.bsky.social are miles apart in @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social’s “quality jobs” consultation. Agree on revising workplace & display directives then diverge. ETUC wants 10+ new laws, no dialogue on them; BusinessEurope wary but open to talks.

👏 Former Swedish commissioner @ylvajohansson.se appointed to lead the EU’s new European Skills High-Level Board — launched by Commissioner @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social under the ‘Union of Skills’ to boost Europe’s workforce and competitiveness!

⭐@roxanaminzatu.bsky.social's staff is launching a new expert group to drive the implementation of the revised European Works Council Directive. Three focused meetings this spring will help strengthen information, consultation & worker participation across the EU. #EWC #SocialEurope

♦️@roxanaminzatu.bsky.social promised in November a “new action plan” for the European Pillar of Social Rights. Roxana now confirms: no new plan — just a review of the 2021 one. Smart pragmatism or a sign of fading ambition?

Deputy Minister Marilena Raouna outlined the @cy2026eu.bsky.social priorities @eesc.bsky.social 🗣️championing stronger autonomy & strategic resilience as we navigate an increasingly evolving geopolitical world. 🌍🇨🇾

🤔Blow to Mercosur, or just a bump in the road? 🇪🇺⚖️ A narrow majority in the European Parliament has voted to send the EU–Mercosur trade deal to the EU’s top court for a legality check. A cross‑party move that now throws the landmark agreement into serious uncertainty.

ℹ️ The @eppgroup.bsky.social voted down the explicit call for a Directive on Just Transitions. The new EP’s unwillingness to call for legislation on #SocialEurope follows its pre-Christmas vote on rules for AI at work. The ball is now in @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social’s court.

Next week, the EP votes on a request to @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social to propose a Just Transition Directive on working conditions, inclusion, consultation & health & safety. Will the EP endorse a clear call for legislation, or again stop short of it, as it did on algo. management?

ℹ️Today, Swedish Minister @ninalarsson.bsky.social unveiled draft law to implement the EU #PayTransparency directive. Employers will have to share starting salaries, report gender pay gaps or face fines. + Stronger rights for workers to challenge discrimination. www.regeringen.se/contentasset...

Remember @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social's mobility package, promised for June? Commission staff aren’t ready to vouch for it. Adoption in Q3 is still “on the table”… for now. 👀

🆕Sweden’s official inquiry on implementing the EU #PlatformWork Directive is complete & now in the hands of Minister Britz! The proposal: a new law to regulate rights & obligations for platform companies, workers, self-employed, & trade unions. www.regeringen.se/contentasset...

Big changes for fair EU mobility. By 2026 @roxanaminzatu.bsky.social will propose: ✅ European Social Security Pass ✅ Stronger European Labour Authority ✅ Skills portability across borders Plus address remote work, 3rd country postings, simpler temp. service provision & work ID-cards.

On Feb 12, EU leaders meet at Alden Biesen Castle for a strategic summit on boosting Europe’s competitiveness. “We must unlock the full potential of the single market,” says @eucopresident.consilium.europa.eu. #EUCompetitiveness #SingleMarket
