The project aimed to strengthen the capacity of social partners to more effectively cooperate in policymaking and implementing autonomous normative frameworks that contribute to more efficient use of development potentials and maintaining political and social peace. It aimed to address the evolving challenges in the labour market by enhancing the capacity of social partners to engage in effective policy-making and collective bargaining.
The project focused on strengthening tripartite cooperation among employers, trade unions, and public authorities to formulate policy responses to new labor market challenges, such as the emergence of new forms of work. It sought to improve the competencies of social partners to conduct effective social dialogue and collective bargaining at the company, national, and EU levels. The project benefitted a wide range of stakeholders, including company representatives, trade union members, policymakers, and the general public.
Key activities included the establishment of a labor relations consultative committee, organization of regular meetings and networking events, implementation of training programs for company representatives and ZDS employees, and preparation of policy recommendations. The project also emphasized the exchange of best practices and experiences between Slovenia and Norway, leveraging the expertise of the Confederation of Norwegian Enterprise (NHO).
