This document is the 1st report arising out of the study commissioned from the Institut des Sciences du Travail (IST) at the Catholic University of Louvain by the European Commission services, DGV, following call for tenders No VT/2002/83. This report seeks to provide the Commission with empirical data that will facilitate an assessment of the institutional representativeness of European employers' and employees' organisations in the private security sector in the 15 Member States of the EU. It follows on from a series of researches that focused ie particularly on organisations recognised as 'social partners' in the intersectoral level in each EU country, organisations affiliated to the CEC1 and to Eurocadres, and organisations that sign collective agreements in the construction, textiles, commerce sector, road haulage, agriculture, etc.
