11/03/2016 (Agence Europe) - BusinessEurope in fundamental disagreement with Commission over posted workers. The European employers association BusinessEurope is in fundamental disagreement with the European Commission over the proposal for targeted revision of the 1996 directive on the posting of workers (see EUROPE 11507). The association thus forms part of the group that is opposed to or sceptical of this revision (see EUROPE 11509). This proposal is not “necessary” and includes “the danger of opening yet another divisive debate among EU member states at a time when restoring trust and unity is the priority”, Markus Breyer, the director general of BusinessEurope, said on Tuesday 8 March.
