Article L2353-14 of the French Labour Code
November 7, 2023
The European Company Committee takes its decisions by a majority vote of its members.
The European Company Committee takes its decisions by a majority vote of its members.
The Committee of the European Company shall adopt its own rules of procedure, which shall set out its operating procedures. These rules of procedure may provide for consideration to be given to the repercussions on the committee of changes in the structure or size of the European Company. Such changes may be examined at the annual meeting of the SE Committee.
The annual meeting of the European Company Committee is convened by its Chairman on the basis of regular reports drawn up by him. These reports describe the development of the European Company’s activities and its prospects. The directors of the subsidiaries and establishments making up the European Company are informed of these reports.
The agenda for meetings of the European Company Committee is drawn up by the Chairman and the Secretary. It is communicated to the members of the Committee at least fifteen days before the date of the meeting. In the absence of agreement on the content of the agenda for the mandatory meeting, it shall be set by the Chairman or the Secretary and communicated to the members of the Committee…
Prior to any meeting, the employees’ representatives on the European Company Committee or, where applicable, its officers, are entitled to meet in the absence of its Chairman.
If the management decides not to follow the opinion expressed by the European Company Committee, the latter is automatically reconvened, at the request of the manager, to try to reach an agreement.
When a meeting is organised with the Bureau, the members of the European Company Works Council representing employees directly affected by the measures in question may take part in this meeting.
Documents sent to employee representatives include at least one version in French.
The European Company Committee and its officers may be assisted by experts of their choice at any level they deem appropriate, insofar as this is necessary for the performance of their tasks. The costs of a single expert shall be borne by the European Company within the framework of the annual meeting provided for in article L. 2353-4.
The employee representatives sitting on the European Company Committee shall inform the employee representatives of the establishments and subsidiaries of the European Company or, failing that, all the employees, of the content and results of the work of this Committee, in compliance with the professional secrecy and the obligation of discretion provided for in Article L. 2325-5.
