For stronger rights
Digital Economy: Employment and Social Protection
The digital economy can lead to social dumping, unless it is efficiently regulated. There are workers behind apps and we are going to make sure that their rights are protected at work, in case of unemployment or illness, or that they can have a pension after they retire. Workers’ rights are our core business.
For a sustainable future
PES Programme for Progressive Reforms
The time of austerity is over, because austerity has failed. Cutting on social spending is a bad business. We want stronger welfare states that can invest in boosting job creation and protecting citizens. We want everyone to pay their fair share for the common good.
Our legacy
20 years of PES Women
Twenty years ago it was hard to imagine that PES Women would transform from a platform of exchange within the PES to an active outgoing women’s movement, with real political influence on the European scene. This publication charts this development and looks ahead to the next steps for achieving gender equality in Europe.
