"Firms in Britain will be forced to set up European-style works councils and consult them on redundancies, changes in ownership and a wide range of day to day management issues"
Does anyone have any experience of how well these councils work in Europe and whether they contribute to the well being of the company and employees? What will the companies without union representation do?
Would anyone care to suggest which UK company will be the last to implement the new policy and perhaps be prepared to pay the fines rather than make the changes?
