12 Eyup Alemdag: General Secretary of Koop-is The IKEA workers are dressed the same way all over the world. Theu eat the same meatballs and the same cheese. If the company identity is everywhere the same, trade union rights must be the same as well. We must ally, put our strength together

17 ICARUS project A clear message emerged from this Conference of the ICARUS project: we have cooprated as a single European Union ; it is clear we must try harder and give ourselves common working methods and standards. Milan, 27 th November 2012

18 Le 3 pillars of MuMMIA - Common working method (like speaking the same tongue) - Having acces to more information on companies, but also on trade unions, to favour the creation of alliances - Lower knowledge and language barriers

19 Context of MuMMIA creation and 2012 above Remarkablel gap tbetween multinational companies covered by the EXC Directive 2009/38/EC...and the number of established EWC ETUI databanks contain around registered multinazional companies. 10% of these have a multisectoral perimeter 20% in case of company groups EWC GSN 60 SE 78 TNAs 224 In 20 years EWCs were established, an average of 60 per year 900 active EWC, most of which must be renegotiated following the new Directive Around TNC, even though covered by the Directive, do not have EWC in place 50 current negotiations ongoing

20 New challenges Follow up on MuMMIa: Cross linking of the Company/Trade union database Widespread training on a common working method, both for those that are already here and for those that will come Test the sustainability barometer for projects
