ABSTRACT
Decentralisation and subsidiarity, local responsibility, flexibility and mobility on the labour market-that is, a sound approach to employment policytogether with a constructive relationship between employers, workplace representatives and trade unions, are all factors which merit proper consideration in social policy, and would serve as a concrete illustration of the propounded unity and harmony of the Community on the key questions of European industrial and social policy. A crucial role can be played here by the social dialogue between the social partners both at European and national level.
