Summary/Abstract: Social dialogue involves holding of consultations and negotiations between the social partners in the EU for the purpose of concluding agreements on social policy initiatives and ensuring social peace. Over the time, the notion of social dialogue took shape at EU level, being encouraged through the establishment of Community institutions with responsibilities in this area and the establishment of mechanisms for negotiation and consultation of the social partners. From this point of view it is important to know the content of the Community rules on social dialogue, the activity of employers’ and employees’ organizations, their objectives and mode of interaction with the Community institutions which are presented in this paper.
