Commission plans implementation of EU treaties without dismissal protection

The Council of States committee has completed discussions on the wage protection package and decided to waive dismissal protection for staff representatives. This step is part of the implementation of the EU treaties being pushed forward by the commission.

Unions have sharply criticized the decision, warning that this waiver could potentially endanger the entire contractual framework with the EU. The committee is thus pushing through a controversial point that is being intensely debated in public.
