Collective bargaining coverage and social dialogue [S1-8]
Coverage in non-EEA countries under collective bargaining agreements has not been included in this reporting in line with the phase-in options. Social dialogue comprises negotiations between management and workers’ repre- sentatives – e.g. through works councils or trade unions – with the aim of representing the interests of employees and ensuring their participation. The Zumtobel Group is also a member of the European Works Council.
Collective bargaining coverage refers to statutory agreements concluded with trade unions/social partners that govern key wor- king conditions such as wages or salaries, working hours, holiday arrangements, or notice periods. These contracts exist at dif- ferent levels within the European Economic Area (EEA). The table below shows collective bargaining coverage by headcount as of 30 April 2026.
