Goals / Remit
The European Confederation of Independent Trade Unions (CESI – Confédération européenne des syndicats indépendants) is a European umbrella organisation, with members from EU Member States and associated countries. CESI is not attached to any political party and defends trade union pluralism on a European level. Through its member organisations, CESI represents approximately 8 million employees. CESI champions better living and working conditions, as well as the progress of Europe’s social dimension.
Main EU files targeted
CESI takes a stance on all issues concerning European policies that affect European employees and citizens. It pools the competences of its member organisations in commissions, trade councils and the training seminars carried out by the CESI Europe Academy. Thus, CESI is a valuable partner to the European institutions and many NGOs. In its role as a recognised social partner at the EU level, CESI takes an active part in the EU level sectoral social dialogue. Its member organisations have seats and can vote in the European Social and Economic Committee. CESI also takes part in sessions of the Council of Europe and of the International Labour Organisation (ILO).

Communication activities
As a recognised social partner, CESI actively stands up for the interests of its members, offering its views on proposed new legislation. CESI’s positions are supported by its opinions and its commitment to press and public relations work. CESI carries out lobbying work in Brussels for its affiliates, which implies an ongoing dialogue with European decision makers. It draws on contacts with all democratic groups in the European Parliament. It critically examines European policy and is glad to give its view when needed, i.e. when worker-related issues are at stake.
