Research project conducted on behalf of the Employment and Social Affairs DG of the European Commission

This document is the 16th 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 V/001/97. 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 local public sector in the 15 Member States of the EU. It follows on from other research in the same field, 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 and commerce sector, as well as road haulage and agriculture.
