End the race to the bottom and protect the EU Minimum Wage Directive
Today, the Advocate General of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) issued an opinion advocating for the annulment of the EU Minimum Wage Directive, adopted in 2022.
The EU Minimum Wage Directive extends beyond minimum wage, addressing the requirement for member states to develop action plans to promote collective bargaining and to take measures to prevent anti-union activities.
This opinion is a dangerous step towards dismantling key protections for workers across Europe. It aligns with the European Commission’s competitiveness agenda, which cares more about profit over people.
