PSI signs Global Framework Agreement to improve workers’ rights and representation with Enel

On 14 June 2013 in Rome, Italy, the global unions Public Services International and IndustriALL signed a Global Framework Agreement with the multinational enterprise Enel, which operates in more than 40 countries.

The agreement is based on international principles of human and labour rights, and defines the guidelines for social dialogue as a way to deal with industrial relations through the constitution of a Global Works Council and  of Multilateral Committees.

PSI General Secretary Rosa Pavanelli underlined the importance of the founding principles and the objectives of the new joint worker-management model for dialogue, declaring that the coherent application of these principles will be now the real challenge.
