The study conducted by IRshare with Labour Asociados on behalf of the European Commission has produced the following results:
- European social legislation concerning information and consultation has spawned a certain number of legislative arrangements throughout the European Union which lay the foundation for a policy of anticipating restructuring, permitting advance notification of restructuring projects before they are implemented.
- Based on this culture born of the rights to information and consultation, the member states have applied more consistent measures as regards how restructuring is managed.
