Role of social partners in restructuring support (1) • Proactive communication between management and employees’ representatives to anticipate restructuring, e.g. • FR ‘Human Resource planning’ • DE ‘Company Pacts for Employment’ • Measures promoting communication, mediation, advice in managing restructuring, e.g. • BE ‘Conciliation Office’ • SE ‘Labour Consultants’
