On Wednesday 23 May 2012, the CEC held its triennial Congress in Berlin, Germany. A new President was unanimously elected: Mrs Annika ELIAS from Ledarna Sweden. The other members of the team are Mr Luigi CAPRIOGLIO as Secretary General, Mr Ludger RAMME as Deputy Secretary General, Mr Juan ZURIARRAIN as Treasurer.
The European Commission is considering a legislative measure to improve the gender balance in corporate boardrooms. The CEC welcomes this initiative and has submitted a contribution to the public consultation. Imbalance between men and women cannot be fixed without common national or European binding objectives in respect with cultural specificities of the Member States.
In its green paper « Restructuring and anticipation of change: what lessons from recent experience? », the Commission tackles a question which is as important for companies as for workers.The CEC is fully aware of the negative effects that restructuring can have on workers and is favourable to a better anticipation and monitoring of these changes.
