Details

The ESC welcomed the proposed amendments, subject to the following comments. The ESC acknowledged that the text made for greater legal certainty and clarity and that it was likely to ensure that national authorities were not confused on a number of points. It also acknowledged that the proposed text would help to ensure greater fairness and would dispense with the need for numerous appeals and lawsuits. - The ESC noted that the proposal only concerned schemes for particular categories of workers (occupational schemes). It called for a clear definition of occupational schemes in relation to statutory schemes, having regard to Article 119 as interpreted by the Court. - The ESC approved the proposed amendment to Article 3 of Directive 86/378/EEC under which workers’ legal successors were to be included in the scope of the new directive. It noted that it was to be obligatory for workers’ contributions to be equal, whereas employers’ contributions were to be the subject of negotiations between the employer and his workers. - The ESC had extremely serious reservations about Article 2 of the proposed directive, which defined the procedures for implementing the new text. It felt in particular that the provisions regarding retroactivity were cumbersome and complicated. - The ESC urged that consideration be given to equal treatment in the field of social security in all ongoing or future work on part-time work, youth unemployment, new forms of work and social protection provisions.
