Call for good practices

Every year, the European Labour Authority launches a call to collect good practice examples on various areas related to EU labour mobility. Through the call, ELA promotes the exchange, dissemination and uptake of good practices and knowledge collected in Member States in the effective application and enforcement of labour law within the EU.  

The topics of the call for good practices may vary each year and reflect ELA’s sectoral or cross-sectoral priorities.

The call is open to Member State administrations, but also to other stakeholders operating at national, regional or local level, including civil society and social partner organisations.
