Questions central to both the legislative debate and to this book include:

- What is the role of trade unions and collective bargaining?

- What role can employees play in the exercise of managerial prerogative?

- How does the European Works Council relate to the European Company Statute?

- How will the presence of employees' representatives in the supervisory board of the companies be organised?

- How will the Directive be implemented in the EU Member States?

- How much room is there for national employment systems in implementing the Directives?
