Amendment 225 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 16
(16) In full respect of Article 153(5) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, this Directive neither aims to harmonise the level of minimum wages across the Union nor to establish an uniform mechanism for setting minimum wages. It does not interfere with the freedom of Member States to set statutory minimum wages or promote access to minimum wage protection provided by collective agreements, according to the traditions and specificities of each country and in full respect of national competences and social partners’ contractual freedom. This Directive does not impose an obligation on the Member States where minimum wage protection is ensured exclusively via collective agreements to introduce a statutory minimum wage nor to make the collective agreements universally applicable. Also, this Directive does not establish the level of pay, which falls within the contractual freedom of the social partners at national level and within the relevant competence of Member States. The purpose of this Directive is not to impose any obligation for Member States to take measures demanding the introduction of statutory minimum wages or measures implying that the social partners have an equivalent obligation. This Directive does not oblige Member States to grant access to minimum wage protection to all workers. Such an obligation would directly interfere with Article 153(5) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. Nothing in this Directive should be construed as creating rights for individuals.

Proposal for a directive
Recital 29

The implementation of this Directive cannot be used to reduce existing rights for workers, nor can it constitute valid grounds for reducing the general level of protection afforded to workers in the field covered by this Directive.
