What is our ambition for the European Labour Authority?

On the eve of the presentation of the European Commission’s “Social Fairness Package”, which includes a proposal for a regulation on the creation of a European labor authority, the Jacques Delors Institute publishes a Policy Paper on the definition of this future European agency. The European Labor Authority should ensure a better enforcement of EU rules on labour mobility, given the difficulties encountered at national level in detecting, preventing and tackling abuse and fraud that occur today, notably in the posting of workers. But its mission will also be to facilitate intra-EU mobility, in particular by guaranteeing better access to information for citizens and businesses. (by Sofia Fernandes)
