Enforcement plays a pivotal role in determining the effectiveness of EU labor law. It serves as a crucial mechanism to ensure that rights are upheld and that compliance is maintained. However, despite its significance, enforcement of EU labor law has received limited scholarly attention in recent decades, and it has seldom been examined in a comprehensive manner. This book aims to bridge this gap and provide a comprehensive exploration of the issue.

The book is designed for both academics and practitioners, adopting a three-fold approach to examine the topic. Firstly, it delves into the concept of effective enforcement, providing a broader context in which EU labor law enforcement takes place. Secondly, it analyzes the operational aspects of enforcement in specific areas such as non-discrimination, health and safety, information and consultation rights, and the rights of migrating workers. Thirdly, it critically assesses the role of various actors, including collective actors like trade unions, whistle-blowers, and the European Labour Authority, as well as the settings regulated by EU law, such as public procurement and economic and monetary policy.

By drawing on the insights generated through these analyses, the book concludes by proposing a comprehensive Draft for a Model Directive on Effective Enforcement of EU Labor Law. This draft serves as an inspiration for policy development and scholarly debate in this critical area.

In conclusion, enforcement is a vital component in making EU labor law effective. This book offers a comprehensive examination of the issue, shedding light on the role of enforcement in upholding rights, promoting compliance, and shaping the policy landscape. It is a valuable resource for academics, practitioners, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the dynamics of EU labor law enforcement.
