For those of you involved in European Works Councils, my partners at The Presence Group are running a valuable series of Social Dialogue Matters workshops in 2026.

These interactive online sessions are designed for experienced EWC practitioners, including employee representatives, EWC chairs and vice-chairs, HR and Industrial Relations professionals, and central management representatives.

Rather than traditional webinars, the workshops focus on peer exchange, real cases and practical insights in small groups of up to 12 participants.

The remaining sessions are:

Vision & value creation: moving beyond compliance​
12 June – employee track
23 June – management track

Strategic & relevant: strengthening the strategic role of the EWC for the organisation and its employees​
02 October – employee track
05 October – management track

Participation is free, but seats are limited. Participants who complete all sessions will also receive complimentary access to the EWC Conference 2026.

After many years interpreting for EWCs across Europe, I know how valuable these opportunities for thoughtful, practical exchange can be. Drop me a line if you’re interested in attending.
