Social Dialogue

European Social Dialogue

The European Sectoral Social dialogue is a bipartite dialogue between the workers’ and employers’ organizations facilitated by the European Commission. It is an important forum for NFU to influence EU policy.

NFU is the Nordic representative in the European Sectoral Social dialogues in Bank and Insurance, coordinating the NFU participation. By participating, NFU supports and promotes social dialogue in Europe. The results of the social dialogue should be followed up at the relevant national level.
