The members of the special negotiating body are appointed by the employee trade union organisations from among their elected representatives on the social and economic committees or their trade union representatives, on the basis of the results of the most recent elections.
The same applies to the employee representatives of the participating companies, subsidiaries or establishments concerned located in France and belonging to a European Company located in a State other than France.
For companies located in France, the seats are allocated between the colleges in proportion to the numerical importance of each of them. The seats allocated to each college are distributed according to the rule of proportional representation with the largest remainder between the trade union organisations, in proportion to the number of elected representatives they have obtained in these colleges.
The members of the special negotiating body appointed by the participating companies established in one of the Member States other than France are elected or appointed in accordance with the rules in force in each Member State.
The appointment of these members is notified by the trade union organisation to the employer under conditions determined by regulation.
