Men disse direktiver må ikke være et alibi for de medlemsstater, som har videregående normer, til blot at skrue disse tilbage. Man bør harmonisere opad, men ikke nedad.
There is no doubt that, as a result of illnesses such as AIDS, there is a growing interest in health problems in relation to the world of work.
For det tredje ønsker jeg ligeledes at gøre opmærksom på, at de forbedrede arbejdsvilkår skal tages med i betragtning ved internationale drøftelser vedrørende den ærlige konkurrence og verdenshandel, for at frem for alt de selvstændige erhvervsdrivende i lande med lave lønninger skulle tvinges til også der at gøre noget for forbedringen af arbejdsvilkårene, først og fremmest for så vidt angår sundhed og sikkerhed.
We obviously must find the right balance between relevant issues here: the need for medical information, necessary for the company with a view to implementing the labour contract, the rights of third parties and the equally important right to pri­vacy. All human beings, including workers, have a right to be their own person, to develop their own environment where in principle no one else may inter­fere.
Endelig vil jeg gerne anmode om, at man nøje passer på, at virksomheder flytter fra en medlemsstat til en anden på grund af foreløbige, lavere sociale normer og finansielle subsidier.
The right to privacy is the general rule, any intrusion on that right the exception. Whoever shares the pri­vacy of others, which happens in the working environ­ment, must respect that privacy.
Arbejdstagernes kontrol, information og medbestemmelse vedrørende arbejdsvilkårene, sundhed og sikkerhed burde endvidere styrkes. Når 180 mio arbejdstagere, som tilbringer en stor del af deres liv på arbejdspladsen, føler sig godt tilpas, sunde, lykkelige og respekterede, kan Europa blive et fornuftigt, økonomisk og socialt Fællesskab.
Certainly, ladies and gentlemen, the technique of the indeterminate legal concept is difficult or impossible to replace in many cases, but on occasion it conceals a carelessness on the part of the legislator towards issues which require deeper analysis at the time of drawing up the legislation.
Et socialt Europa under opbygning må ikke glemme de 17 mio arbejdsløse, som ikke haç nogen arbejdsplads.
Furthermore, this type of concept always implicitly requires a court case which implies specific procedure, but none of this is dealt with in the proposal.
Hr. formand, mit lands udgangspunkt med hensyn til forholdene på arbejdspladserne var ikke det aller bedste, men de bestræbelser, vi udfolder, går i retning af en så hurtig tilnærmelse til de europæiske normer som muligt.
As regards situations of expected or imminent risk — an important issue which results in large numbers of accidents at work, many of them fatal — arising from the very process of production, the proposal is silent.
Vi afviser den økonomiske konkurrence, som er baseret på overtrædelse af arbejds- eller sikkerhedsforskrifterne.
It refers, principally and indirectly, to risks caused by agents external to the production.
For os er den sociale dumping, ud over at den er lige så skadelig som enhver anden form for dumpung, særligt alvor lig, fordi den strider imod det centrale element i vor socialdemokratiske politiske filosofi.
The key question here, as everyone knows, is who decides, and under what circumstances, to paralyse the processes of prod­uction or work and who does or does not ratify such a decision with its evident economic repercussions.
Derfor støtter vi de foreliggende betænkninger, og vi minder Kommissionen om, at den sociale dimension i Europa og Borgernes Europa ikke begrænser sig til normer for hygiejne og sikkerhed, hvorfor vi forventer mere vidtrækkende og modige forslag.
This is a most important question which is resolved in national legislations, including that of my country.
Pimenta (LDR). — (PT) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, i februar i år vedtog Europa-Parlamentet fire beslutninger, hvori det krævede, at debatten vedrørende målet i 1992, skabelsen af det indre marked, ikke skulle indskrænke sig til kun at vedrøre tekniske harmoniseringer eller harmoniseringen på det skattemæssige og finansielle område, men også omfatte en pakke af sociale foranstaltninger med henblik på at sikre de europæiske borgeres legitime rettigheder.
CALVO ORTEGA (NI). — (ES) Mr President, the proposal for a directive that we are debating ought in principle to be greeted with satisfaction both because it achieves an aim and because it represents the fulfil­ment of a mandate in the Single Act. And it is a con­crete step along the road to social cohesion, and more specifically to one of its elements, the social dimen­sion.
Cano Pinto (S). — (ES) Hr. formand, der er ingen tvivl om, at disse direktiver i den såkaldte »sociale pakke« er et afgørende skridt i opbygningen af arbejdstagernes Europa.
Finally, Mr President, I would like to refer to the spe­cific rules that should have been established in thè pro­posal in relation to small and medium­sized firms.
I disse direktiver ser vi konturerne af vigtige aspekter af den sociale dimension i det Europa, der vil være en realitet i 1992.
The statements in this proposal for a directive are mani­
Det er klart at, den sociale beskyttelse af arbejdstagerne ikke kan blive for stor.
Mr President, I believe that we should not just hope for the best.
Men det må også straks tilføjes, at de små og mellemstore virksomheders struktur kræver, at gennemførelsen af disse direktiver ledsages af finansielle støtteforanstaltninger, hvis de skal kunne overkomme nøje at overholde disse foranstaltninger til social beskyttelse af arbejdstagerne.
We should all actually contribute to the difficult course of tomorrow's vote but even more so to the deliberations with the other institutional bodies, so as to secure what I sincerely believe we all want.
Og for at underbygge min bekymring vil jeg gerne citere Det Økonomiske og Sociale Udvalg, som udtaler : » Hvis man ønsker at nå målet for den sociale beskyttelse, må medlemsstaterne udvise fleksibilitet.
To realize this social package as promptly as possible, I certainly accept as reasonable the concern of some colleagues that we cannot reach for the moon, but I believe we shall all strive to achieve the golden mean.
Medlemsstaterne bør udvikle støttemekanismer, navnlig for de små og mellemstore virksomhe der, med henblik på at hjælpe dem med deres indsats for at beskytte arbejdstagernes sundhed«.
To sum up, my political group is going to vote in favour of all the amendments which are in line with the points in my speech and which better serve the purpose of this proposal: the health and safety of workers in the workplace.
Poulsen (ED). — Hr. formand, set fra et dansk synspunkt er hele denne debat fantastisk vigtig.
SHERLOCK (ED). — Mr President, first of all I must congratulate Mr Hughes, one of the rapporteurs, who I am told is away on his honeymoon, an exclusable absence, I think.
Vi vil følge udviklingen for at sikre, at ingen vinder arbejdspladser på social dumping i Europa.
I have noted that our attendance is as lamentable as when environmental and health matters are debated at 11 o'clock at night.
For slaget i arbejdsmiljødirektiverne, som omfatter hele arbejdstagerens familie, er efter min mening et forsøg på at lave sociale harmonisering ad bagdøren, og det har ikke ret meget med arbejdsmiljø at gøre.
We are at the threshold of the first serious realization of social cohesion, of the social Community, with a complex of directives which cannot but be considered the forerunner, the herald and the basis of what we all want to take place as a parallel concept, vision and aim to the single European market.
Arbejdsmiljødirektiverne skal heller ikke anvendes som dække for en ideologisk bestemt fordelingspolitik.
First of all I must refer to so many of the speakers who have failed to concentrate at all upon the proposals contained in the directive and have come out with a great mish-mash of various good wishes, all extremely well intentioned.
Medlemslandenes socialpolitik og individuelle finansiering af den offentlige sektor skal ikke løses på denne lidt fordækte måde. Hvis disse spørgsmål overhovedet skal reguleres af Fællesskaberne, må det ske i al offentlighed.
But in the process they have over looked the fact that the begetter of all occupational medicine, Ramazzini, an Italian, has long passed away — in 1933 in fact he passed his quatercentenary, four centuries of a practical, sensible approach to occupa tional medicine, which has been one of the plesaures of my working life.
Jeg er af den opfattelse, at med disse direktiver om social beskyttelse tages vigtige skridt, hvad angår den sociale dimension i det Europa, vi vil få i 1992.
Had I been deposited by some strange mischance immediately without any preconditioning into this political atmosphere for the entire day, I would have wondered what on earth most of you were talking about.
Jeg tror også, at man gør arbejdspladsen og arbejdsmiljøet en smule mere menneskeligt.
It bears little or no resemblance to the occupa tional health that is practised.
Men efter at have udtalt min generelle accept' af disse direktiver, må jeg også, hr. formand, erklære, at jeg er lidt forvirret over især visse ændringsforslag; det er en forvirring, der er foranlediget af det brogede billede, som den sociale virkelighed i Europa frembyder, og af de vidt forskellige erhvervsstrukturer. Det er ikke let — og det er det heller ikke for Kommissionen — at harmonisere en broget social virkelighed.
To be sure, so serious a matter cannot fail to create difficulties, and I believe that a demonstration of the seriousness and importance of the subject is the difficulty, familiar to us wll, which both the European Par liament and the Commission encountered in formulating it, and even more so in their deliberations with the other institutional bodies, until a common view finally emerged.
Jeg tror, at den bedste vej er den pragmatiske og ikke lige præcis den vej, nemlig utopiens vej, som andre har fulgt, når de stiller ændringsforslag, som glemmer, at de ønskværdige mål for social beskyttelse undertiden, eller næsten altid, er svære at forene med de realiserbare mål.
And here I think I should point out that this is natural, because the concept of the social Community, now the declared and given policy of the European Community for social cohesion, is a formulated policy to which we must all adapt all the time.
Man må også undgå at falde for den fristelse at ville regulere det hele i et rammedirektiv, for så bliver særdirektiverne tomme for indhold.
I have heard reference to statistics of various sorts, none of which have mentioned, of course, the well in excess of a century and a half of legislation in my own native State.
Det samme gælder de ulyksalige forsøg på at presse ideologiske spørgsmål og sociale teorier ind i direktiver om sundhed og sikkerhed på arbejdspladsen.
A century and a half of legislation which has not only been implemented but has been enforced by one of the most effective, efficient and noncorruptible organizations in my experience in the whole world through the inspectorates who have a very real part to play.
Arbejdsmiljøreglerne skal være enkle og ensartede.
It is unthinkable that we should allow any reduction of the acquired prescriptions and rights of working people.
De skal kunne forstås ude på virksomhederne, og det må ikke kræve særlig indsigt i EF-ret at vide, hvilke regler der er gældende.
And on that point I will dwell a little longer on the subject of small and mediumsized enterprises.
I eftermiddag skal vi også diskutere maskindirektivet og hele ideen omkring selvcertifikationen.
That reminds me of the false problem raised by some, who refer to flexibility of the market and suchlike.
Arbejdsmiljøreglernes overholdelse vil lige som maskindirektivets overholdelse kræve et tillidsfuldt samarbejde med virksom hederne.
Yes, of course, we must support small and mediumsized enterprises and give them incentives and scope, but this does not mean that it should happen at the cost of their workers, who must have unequivocally the same rights as others.
Derfor er det vigtigt, at reglerne er let forståelige og enkle at kontrollere.
Then we heard the sadness of Mrs Diez de Rivera Icaza, who observed that the only capital that workers have is their ability to work reflected in their health.
I Danmark har vi tradition for at lave ensartede arbejdsmiljøregler.
Implementation and enforcement bring me back to the major thing, because it is now late in the debate and my colleague, Mrs Jackson, drew attention to two facts.
Lad os skabe fælles europæiske minimumskrav i samme tradition.
One, that we intend to stay within the strict remit of that particular part of the Treaties upon which this is based.
Arbejdspladser, som er gode nok for alle.
The legal proposal is soundly based.
Til sidst vil jeg gerne nævne den gode danske tradition, vi har for at respektere den frie forhandlingsret.
ROELANTS DU VIVIER (ARC). — (FR) Mr President, honourable Members, all the reports we are looking at today raise many questions — but I shall simply deal with one of them.
Puerta Gutiérrez (COM). — (ES) Hr. formand, ud fra de faktiske vilkår på arbejdspladserne i Spanien må det konstateres, at der både findes opslidende og farligt arbejde.
IVERSEN (COM). — (DA) Mr President, in very general terms the Commission deserves praise for the initiative it has taken in the proposals for directives on health and safety at the workplace.
Der er sat en pris ikke blot på arbejdskraften, men også på arbejdernes helbred og endog på deres liv, med diverse tillæg for tungt, giftigt og farligt arbejde og også med akkordarbejde og overarbejdstimer.
These proposals represent a very necessary initial manoeuvre in ensuring a secure environment for employees. But I stress the word initial.
De sociale omkostninger ved alt dette er de tusinder af døde og invaliderede, som arbejdsskaderne og arbejdsulykkerne resulterer i.
I will content myself in the following with some comments on the draft outline directive and the associated report from the Committee on the Environment. ronment.
Fremsættelsen af dette forslag er en tilkendegivelse af, at den sociale dimension har første prioritet i det indre marked i 1992. Et samfund med fremgang, der samtidigt er solidarisk, bør være optaget af at give sine borgere en god livskvalitet, en livskvalitet, som begynder ude på selve arbejdspladserne.
In fact, with its amendments, the Committee on the Environment has done no more than play its proper part under Article 118a of the Sincle Act, whereby the working environment is to be improved gradually via the progressive implementation of the minimal requirements.
Med henblik på 1992 er det af afgørende betydning at give arbejdstagerne en udstrakt garanti for, at enhedsmarkedet ikke går imod deres interesser, men at det skabes i det sociale fremskridts navn.
As the Commission's proposal is put forward under Article 118a, it is important to stress that it must be seen as a set of minimum requirements for the obligations of employers and employees with regard to securing more acceptable workplaces.
Alene i år er 400 bygningsarbejdere og 18 kulminearbejdere omkommet, men det er jo også i et land, som med hensyn til udgifter til arbejderbeskyttelsesforanstaltninger og forebyggelse ligger næstsidst i Det Europæiske Fællesskab.
As far as we are concerned, there is no doubt that this rules out differentiating the external environment (determined according to the procedures laid down in Article 100a) from the internal environment — that of firms abiding by minimal constraints.
De teknologiske fremskridt og brugen af nye teknologier gør det nødvendigt med beskyttelsesforanstaltninger og en adfærd, som er tilpasset denne nye virkelighed.
A number of the amendments contained in the Vittinghoff report relate to provisions governing arrange ments to ensure that the terms of the directive are actually enforced by the Member States.
Vort samfund, hvis kulturelle stade og evne til at erkende virkeligheden bliver stadig mere udviklet, bliver i dag bevidst om problemer, som tidligere var helt ukendte.
These pre cautions are absolutely essential in ensuring that the intentions of the proposal are actually given effect in the Member States.
Det gælder helt sikkert dem, der håndterer udstyr med fluorescerende detektorer, dem, der løfter tunge byrder og minimumsforskrifterne for sikkerhed og sundhed på arbejdspladserne. serne.
So, to paraphrase what Mr Delors said this morning, Mr President, the environment may be one of the essential components of a common economic and social area which is not a multi-speed one and, in fact, serves European Union.
Hr. formand, kære kolleger, det er min opfattelse, at disse præcise og velbegrundede forslag, der er frem sat med absolut realitetssans, vil blive støttet af det store flertal af de politiske grupperinger.
CHRISTIANSEN (S). — (DA) Mr President, Parliament is serious in its intentions with regard to the social dimension to the completion of the internal market.
Jeg tror, at arbejdsmarkedets parter — navnlig arbejdsgiversiden, som må yde den største indsats for at gennem føre disse forslag —, i høj grad er lydhøre, det bør de i hvert fald være, over for målsætningen for disse forslag.
That emerges clearly from the vote in Parliament's Committee on the Environment on the work ing environment package we are discussing here.
Fremtiden vil vise, om vi har ret. For vort vedkommende, Kommissionens og Europa-Parlamentets, har vi gjort vores del.
It is the first time in the Community that we have had an opportunity to have a joint discussion on the situation of employees at workplaces in Europe. We have waited a long time for it.
Arbejderbeskyttelsen bør gennemføres ved hjælp af sådanne foranstaltninger, som er teknologisk gennemførlige og ikke, som Kommissionen fastholder, ved hjælp af foranstaltninger, som det med rimelighed kan lade sig gøre at gennemføre.
Despite this initial praise, I must warn in the strongest terms against any impression that the question of safe ty at the workplace is resolved by the adoption of the Commission's proposal, even if it incorporates Parliament's amendments.
Og man kan heller ikke udstede en blankocheck til de små og mellemstore virksomhe der, så de kan undgå at overholde disse direktiver.
I would point out here that safety at the workplace will only be introduced in principle, as a set of minimum requirements, by the adoption of these directives.
Man må ikke glemme, at 70% af arbejdstagerne i Det Europæiske Fællesskab arbejder i disse virksom heder.
This is because safety at work has to be seen first and foremost in the context of the chemicals legislation applicable in the Community.
Kuijpers (ARC). — (NL) Hr. formand, i forbindelse med bestemmelserne om arbejdstagernes sikkerhed og sundhed på arbejdspladsen savner jeg alligevel en væsentlig kendsgerning.
I am thinking here of the rules on the labelling, for example, of carcinogenic substances and organic solvents which are applicable in the EC and — please note — are applicable in the form of maximum directives.
Der er jo ingen tvivl om, at bl.a. som følge af sygdomme såsom AIDS er der i den seneste tid opstået en voksende interesse for sundhedsproblemerne i forbindelse med virksomhe-
Less restrictive Community legislation in these areas is tantamount to saying that damage sustained by workers through their handling of a number of dangerous substances is not in fact admissible as actual occupa
»den person, som har ansvaret for virksomheden eller anlægget«.
Christiansen covered were the liberalization and free movement of capital, goods and services.
Dets tvetydighed er åbenbar, og manglen på juridisk klarhed og præcision taler for sig selv.
Only now are we pre sented with an opportunity of debating the actual con ditions of workers, but better late than never!
Fastsættelsen af arbejdsgiverens ansvar er heller ikke tilstrækkeligt afgrænset.
ject insensitively, but I can claim that we are debating it in far too laid-back a manner at a time when the sword of Damocles is hanging over the health and safety of 180 million working people in Europe.
Det forbehold, der tages med hensyn til ansvarsfritagelse, er korrekt, men der er ikke en klar beskrivelse af de forskellige situationer, hvor flere juridiske personer har medansvar, samtidigt eller efterfølgende, fordi der for eksempel er benyttet defekt udstyr produceret af en anden arbejdsgiver, sammenfaldende culpa hos flere arbejdsgivere på samme tid, osv.
During the last two months in my country alone, there was an accident at a ship-repairing unit which left 10 dead and 100 injured, because even rudimentary safety measures were lacking and those which were required by law had not been applied, since no inspections are carried out.
Retten til et privatliv er den almene regel, krænkelse heraf er undtagelsen.
This raises the question of how much the framework directive will achieve to improve the situation, both in my own country and in others, since sim ilar events happen elsewhere as well.
Pligt til diskretion og forretningshemmeligheder har højeste prioritet.
On the other hand, the draft directive is inferior to the legislations in some Member States, and there is a perceptible danger of social 'dumping' within the Community.
Diskretion og for retningshemmeligheder forpligter jo dem, som har kendskab til hemmeligheder, til at holde disse hemmelige.
Besides, it is known that the Council's deliberations are tending to downgrade even the present inadequate framework of the directive.
Arbejdstagernes rettigheder er i for høj grad betingede af tekstens uklare juridiske definitioner.
With these four reports on the health and safety of employees at workplaces Parliament has given a clear signal that the workers and their situation must now be placed centre stage.
Dette gælder således retten til medbestemmelse: Det tillades arbejdstagerne at deltage i tilrettelæggelsen af deres arbejde, hvis dette med rimelighed er muligt.
We Danish Social Democrats give our clear support to the many good amendments contained in the repons, which convey the wishes and demands of the European trade unions on behalf of wage and salary-earning people in Europe.
Det samme kan siges om de i forslaget omtalte situationer, hvor arbejdsrytmen styres af en maskine, og om indførelsen af nye teknologier, som »bør foretages« i snævert samarbejde med arbejdstagerne eller deres repræsentanter.
The inter nal market will not lead to a social Europe without participation, joint ownership, company health services, information to and consultation with employees on mergers etc.
Med hensyn til de pågældende arbejdstagere gælder der selvfølgelig ingen forretningshemmeligheder.
In that connection we are pleased to learn that the President of the Commission himself shares these concerns.
Over for arbejdsgiveren kan den behandlende læge kun give oplysninger om, hvorvidt arbejdstageren er egnet eller ej.
We take a positive view of his idea of a social constitution for the Community.
En lægelig motivering af beslutningen må ikke gives.
But both he and we know that this view of the social dimension has many opponents among our govern ments.
Jeg beklager i lige så høj grad, at de offentlige myndigheder er udelukket fra anvendelsessektoren, ganske vist med løfte om en særlig behandling; men ville vi ikke gøre klogt i først at starte en global debat inden for rammerne af Europa om gennemførelsen af en europæisk social grundlov, hvori alle sociale grundrettigheder garanteres alle, hvor de end befinder sig.
On the strength of the large majority which we expect will vote for these reports in this Chamber tomorrow and the standpoints and principles I men tioned earlier, we would warn the Council in particular against ignoring our message with regard to securing the safety and health of workers through a high level of protection.
Endvidere forudsætter denne type rettigheder altid en voldgiftsinstans og i dette tilfælde desuden mere specifikke gennemførelsesbestemmelser, og alt dette savnes fuldstændigt i forslaget.
Let us support them, because unless we do so in order to ensure the health and safety of their workers, we are admitting that workers in those enterprises will con tinue to be at risk. That is unacceptable.
