September 21st & 22nd 2023

THE FUTURE OF WORK
AND OF SOCIAL DIALOGUE

AIM OF THE HIGH-LEVEL EVENT

The European Union has given a social and supportive response to the various situations experienced in recent years. A response in which tripartite and bipartite social dialogue has been an essential tool to define and implement the labour and employment policies of both the Union and its Member States.

It is now time to look ahead and think about the future of work that we desire, a future that must provide answers to complex issues such as the impact of both the digital and the green transition on employment and labour relations. It is also time to reflect on the role of social dialogue in this future of work, opening up new spaces for cooperation between companies and workers and their representatives.

Social dialogue is one of the priorities of the Spanish Presidency of the Council of the European Union in the field of labour and employment. It was therefore considered appropriate to organise this high-level event, which shall take place at Santiago de Compostela, a city declared a World Heritage Site in 1985.
