Three years ago in Porto, we said it was time to deliver. And we have delivered.

Most importantly, we have set something in motion: the journey towards a strong social Europe that protects.

The Declaration we’ve just signed reaffirms our commitment to the European Pillar of Social Rights.

With Mario Draghi’s & Enrico Letta’s reports on our competitiveness & Single Market, it shows us the way for the future.

A way to confirm our Union’s primacy, as the place to…

.Roberta Metsola Roberta Metsola on #social Europe: '50 days ahead of #EUelections2024 , Europeans are asking about jobs, affordable housing & equal opportunities for women and men. 🇪🇺 must live up to its people & to its promise not to leave anyone behind.'

.Ursula von der Leyen 'Fair working conditions, social protection & inclusion are the values of 🇪🇺 social market economy. Despite COVID & war against Ukraine today more people are employed than in any time of history. 75% of Europeans have a job. Economic & social growth go hand in hand'

We have built sound economic policies, with a strong social heart.

This is what makes our Union unique.

Now, our Union must continue to deliver for people and for business.

This is the Union we're building together ↓ twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

.Nicolas SCHMIT '3 years ago in Porto, we said it was time to deliver. We delivered. We set something in motion: the journey towards a strong #social Europe that protects. We must keep pushing for a 🇪🇺 that is fair, inclusive and full of opportunity.'

If we don't act together we underdeliver.
We need an EU fit for today & for tomorrow's world. What I'm proposing in the report on European competitiveness is radical change. This is what we need.

👋 Mario Nava

Complimenti a Mario Nava for being appointed EMPL Director-General.

No better place for someone who drives an economy that works for people & supports EU countries' reform efforts to strengthen their economies & labour markets.

Looking forward to working with you EU Social 🇪🇺!

I say it very clearly: trainees have to be paid decently.

To plug the EU’s labour and skills shortages, together with Thierry Breton we launched the Pact for Skills.

Public and private actors together map what skills gaps exist and commit to providing training opportunities.

The results are very promising!

#EuropeanYearOfSkills

.Nicolas SCHMIT

'Traineeships cannot be for free.
European Commission proposes a 🇪🇺 Directive which states that there must be no abuse of traineeships through disguised work relationships. Trainees should be paid. There will be enforcement of this.'

➡️ europa.eu/!YqtxjF

.Valdis Dombrovskis 'Two thirds of SMEs cannot find the talent they need. This affects our 🇪🇺 competitiveness.'

Today European Commission set out actions to tackle labour shortages by improving labour mobility and working conditions in key sectors and more.
