Korian: Employee representatives from the Korian group for care of the elderly met on 11 April in Brussels at the initiative of the European Federation of Public Service Unions (EPSU) to establish a network of trade unionists covering Germany, Belgium, France and Italy. The participants discussed the next steps following the request to establish a European Works Council in the company. They exchanged views on working conditions in Korian Group subsidiaries in Europe." This revealed that the company keeps wages low and staff numbers to a strict minimum while increasing competition between institutions among European companies, EPSU stresses. Despite the fact that Korian is very profitable, low wages, part-time contracts and precarious working conditions are common.
