About the EWC Project

On 1st of March 2007, a research project on European Works Council: A transnational Organization? funded by the German Research Foundation (Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft), started at the < http://www.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/soaps> Chair of Sociology of Organizations and Participation Studies.

The aim of the project is to establish a typology of European Works Councils (EWCs), to find out the structural conditions for their work and to analyse the results of negotiations between European Works Councils and Managements in selected companies in the European automotive industry in five countries (France, Germany, Poland, Spain and the United Kingdom). The duration of the project is two years. More information on the project's research mission is available on the < http://www.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/ewc/details.html> Details Page.

The project team consists of Luitpold Rampeltshammer, Markus Hertwig, Jessica Buchholz und Valentina Mählmeyer. More information on the project's team is available on the < http://www.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/ewc/team.html> Team Page.
