Editorial of the Secretary-General Klaus Heeger
On Tuesday September 26 the members of CESI’s members’ Trade Council ‘Local and Regional Administrations’ (LRA) convened for their annual meeting in Brussels. CESI’s trade union affiliates employed in local and regional administrations took the opportunity to deliberate on digitalisation effects on employment, EU measures for more predictable and transparent working conditions and spreading precarious work in their sector.
After having concluded its file on recommendations for the European Commission on the negotiations for TTIP, the European Parliament has today started working on an analogue file on recommendations on the negotiations for TiSA. As a European trade union confederation representing several million public sector workers, CESI welcomes that a first working document calls to exclude public services from the trade agreement and hence rule out TiSA-induced destructive liberalisation forces for the sector.
Today, the European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker held a much-awaited speech in the European Parliament on the state of the union and announced new plans to manage the EU’s ongoing refugee and migration challenge more successfully. He proposed both an emergency and a permanent common crisis relocation mechanism for refugees. As a trade union confederation representing numerous public sector workers who are working with and receiving refugees on a regular basis, CESI recalls that the public services in Europe’s regions, towns and municipalities need (more) help to be able to take in refugees with dignity – including from the EU.
Marked by the recent shootings in Paris and Denmark and the plane crash in the French Alps, this year’s CESI Security Trade Council, gathering representatives of security forces such as policemen or customs officers, points out the vulnerability of these publicly exposed professional groups and thanks them for their work and engagement during crisis situations.
