Poland, just like many other European countries, is facing the important challenge of modernising its welfare system in a challenging economic context and at a time of ongoing fiscal consolidation. Against this background, this public Roundtable discussion represents a key opportunity for scholars as well as national and European stakeholders and policymakers to discuss the contribution of social dialogue to welfare state developments in Poland and the rest of Europe.
This roundtable will address the divergent trajectories of occupational pensions in Austria and Germany. Researchers as well as national and European stakeholders and policymakers discuss the contribution of social dialogue to welfare state developments in Austria and other EU Member States. Leading scholars shed light on the recent developments, challenges and opportunities associated with the development of contract welfare.
