昨年12月に、欧州委員会がクオリティ・ジョブ法についての労使団体への第1次協議を開始したことを伝えましたが、それから半年余りたって、第2次協議が開始されたようです。

The European Commission has launched the second-phase consultation with European social partners on the upcoming Quality Jobs Act. The initiative aims to improve working conditions, health and safety and workers’ rights across the EU.

論点は5つにわたります。

• Algorithmic management and artificial intelligence at work – making automated decisions more transparent and human-centred, and protecting employees from excessive monitoring.

• Safety and health at work – updating rules for workplaces outside traditional offices and tackling risks such as extreme heat and psychosocial hazards, including sexual harassment.

• Workers’ rights in subcontracting chains – improving transparency, liability and enforcement to prevent labour exploitation.

• Fair digital and green transitions – supporting skills development and social dialogue so workers are not left behind when companies adapt to a changing economy.

• Enforcement and role of social partners – strengthening labour inspections, sanctions for non-compliance, and social dialogue.

職場のアルゴリズム管理と人工知能、労働安全衛生、下請連鎖における労働者の権利、公正なデジタル・グリーンな移行、実施と労使対話の役割というやや幅広な論点ですが、今後どのように進展していくか引き続き関心を持ってフォローしていきたいと思います。
