Dear colleagues,

The Working Group meeting of the Sectoral Social Dialogue Committee Horeca will take place on Monday, 27 September 2021.

The meeting is scheduled from 9 am to 12.30 pm:

  • 9 am to 9.50 am: separate preparatory meetings for HOTREC and EFFAT
  • 10 am to 12.30 pm: joint Working Group meeting

Main items on the agenda will be:

  • COVID-19 and the hotel & restaurant sector
  • Qualification & training: Pact for Skills in Tourism
  • European Platform on Undeclared Work: Sector-specific seminar on undeclared work in the HORECA sector on 16 September 2021
  • Platform economy: Exchange on the second phase consultation of social partners on possible action addressing the challenges related to working conditions in platform work

Attached you will find the official invitation and agenda. Further working documents will be sent in the running up to the meeting.

Simultaneous interpretation will be provided: active EN, FR, ESP, passive DE, IT.

Please note that Working Group meetings have different conditions than the SSDC Steering Committee meetings: we can have 15 participants per social partner side, with reimbursement of travel costs and subsistence, and we can get active interpretation for 3 languages. Given the fact that the meeting will be held online, we are more flexible with participation, we therefore kindly invite all colleagues interested in joining the meeting to register.

Please confirm your participation as soon as possible, and by 21 September 2021 at the latest. Even though this will be a video-conference meeting, the EC does need the list of participants for reporting purposes.

The meeting will be run via an online conferencing system set up and organised by the European Commission. Participants will receive more information on how to connect to the online meeting in due time, as we are awaiting further instructions from the EC.

If you have any specific questions, please do not hesitate to contact the EFFAT Secretariat.

Looking forward to see you all back virtually!

With kind regards,

EFFAT
