    “• at oprindelsesprincippet i artikel 4, stk. 2, fjernes, eller at der indføres en klar undtagelse for arbejdsmarkedslovgivning, • at medarbejderdeltagelse efter artikel 12 sikres efter værtslandets regler, • at der fastlægges klare værtslandsregler for tilsyn efter artikel 21, • at lønmodtagerkrav beskyttes ved insolvens efter artikel 78, • at der indføres effektive værn mod postkasseselskaber,”

    Exclude the construction sector from the 28th regime to prevent it becoming a shortcut for underpayment and letterbox companies, as the proposal risks enabling complex company structures that hide responsibility and circumvent national rules.

    “Forslaget om et 28. regime må ikke blive en genvej for underbetaling og postkasseselskaber i byggeriet ... Forslaget udgør i sin nuværende form en direkte trussel mod fagbevægelsens ret til at sikre danske løn- og arbejdsvilkår for udstationerede og mobile arbejdere.”

  3. One EU law, or 27 national ones?

    Drop the proposal in its current form as it weakens the fight against organised crime and threatens the ability to secure fair conditions through collective agreements; if continued, exclude construction and ensure strong safeguards against misuse and circumvention of labour rules.

    “Vi mener, at Kommissionen bør droppe forslaget i dets nuværende form. Det nuværende forslag vil ikke alene svække kampen mod organiseret kriminalitet på de europæiske byggepladser, men også være en trussel mod vores muligheder for at sikre ordnede vilkår for udenlandske kollegaer igennem kollektive overenskomster og det fagretlige system. ... Hvis Kommissionen vælger at gå videre med forslaget, uden at der skabes stærke garantier mod misbrug, bør byggeriet undtages fra 28. regime-forslaget, sådan som også det europæiske bygnings- og træarbejderforbund, EFBWW, anbefaler.”
