Subcontracting separates power and profits from risks and responsibilities.

At today's ETUC conference, trade union leaders called for tier limits on subcontracting.

Finally. The big paper based on my PhD is available. ‘Twas stuck behind a paywall but I’ve retroactively sorted the open access.

It looks at the legislation for English public libraries and how it’s holding up, over 60 years later.

A major cross-border investigation, supported by testimony from workers and trade unions, exposes the human cost of Europe's digital boom.

Binding EU limits on subcontracting tiers are overdue.

Workers did the work. They were denied their wages. They went to court. They won.

And they still did not get paid.

On a 3.3 billion euros public railway, responsibility disappeared through a cross-border contracting chain. The EU must limit these chains.

There were about 16,000 heat-related deaths in Germany last summer, about double the mortality during the first Covid wave in early 2020. Extreme heat needs to be treated as an ongoing public health emergency.

As Europe prepares for #SOTEU2026, important pieces are still missing from the Quality Jobs Act consultation.

Limits on subcontracting chains, a ban on labour intermediaries, and joint and several liability.

Quality jobs in construction require structural reform.
