This \u201cmarginalises other critical factors, such as labour rights and fair working conditions, which are essential for sustainable economic growth and good jobs\u201d. The signatories recall that \u201ccollective bargaining and union rights are a fundamental pillar of equitable labour markets\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>UNI Europa research\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-europa.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/11\/Public-procurement-December-2021-snapshot-report.pdf\">shows<\/a> that half of all public tenders across the EU are awarded solely based on the lowest price, often due to procurement rules. These rules overlook the social costs to communities and undermine Commission President Ursula von der Leyen\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uni-europa.org\/news\/von-der-leyens-public-procurement-reform-must-lift-workers-living-standards\/\">promise<\/a> of quality jobs, quality services and increasing collective bargaining coverage to \u201csupport fair wages, good working conditions, training and fair job transitions for workers\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Oliver Roethig, Regional Secretary of trade union federation UNI Europa said<\/strong>: \u201cWe know from essential workers about the pervasive low-wages and social precarity created by the EU&#8217;s current procurement rules. These problems are the same everywhere across Europe. They are caused by bad EU regulation and therefore need an EU-wide solution. That is why we are calling on Ursula von der Leyen to turn its promise of quality jobs, fair wages and good conditions into reality. We must reform public procurement rules now. Europe deserve better than a race for the cheapest price. Workers need wages with dignity, safe and secure jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Enrico Somaglia, EFFAT Depuy Secretary General, said<\/strong>: \u201cIt is outrageous that, in this day and age, public contracts funded by taxpayers continue to be awarded based solely on the lowest price. This practice empowers exploitative businesses and exposes an EU failing to protect the dignity and rights of workers. Today, they have come a long way to make their voices heard and to call the EU to support employers that respect workers\u2019 rights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Estelle Ceulemans, MEP and S&amp;D spokesperson on employment, said<\/strong>: \u201cWe stand with workers and trade unions in demanding respect of collective bargaining as the only way to ensure respect of workers. Our goal is to ensure human EU procurement rules that will protect workers and promote fair and sustainable societies and economies.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kim van Sparrentak, MEP and \u00a0Member of Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection (Greens), said<\/strong>: \u201cThe Covid pandemic has taught us that cleaners, construction workers and security agents are the truly essential workers we can\u2019t do without. These workers too often are not getting what they deserve. This \u2018Stop the Race to the Bottom\u2019 demonstration is a strong call to action not to miss the opportunity of the announced revision of the EU rulebook on procurement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Li Andersson, MEP and chair of the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs (The Left) said<\/strong>: \u201cThe European social model turns into a hollow phrase, if improving working conditions of the essential workers is not taken seriously. The EU and the member states must show an example: we need socially responsible public procurement rules that genuinely strengthens the social dialogue and sets workers\u2019 rights as a priority. Competitiveness can\u2019t turn into a euphemism for low wages and unfair working conditions \u2013 that must be our message to president Ursula von der Leyen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>NOTES TO EDITORS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The demonstration was organised by 14 trade union organisations from nine countries<\/strong>: UNI Europa (EU), EFFAT (EU), FGTB-ABVV (Belgium), ACV-CSC (Belgium), CGSLB-ACLVB (Belgium), CFDT Services (France), IG BAU (Germany), ver.di (Germany), OGB-L (Luxembourg), FNV Schonmaak (Netherlands), NAF (Norway), CGIL Filcams (Italy), UGT-FeSMC (Spain), PAM (Finland).<\/p>\n<p><strong>A groundbreaking <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/uniglobalunion.org\/news\/cleaners_survey_2023\/\"><strong>international survey<\/strong><\/a><strong> of cleaners from 2023<\/strong>, commissioned by UNI, sheds light on the significant challenges faced by cleaning professionals who work irregular and unsocial shifts.
