Summary/Abstract: The subject of the study is the impact of the amendment to the Act on trade unions on the procedure for concluding an agreement regarding employee participation in the management of European business entities. The author concentrates cosiderations primarily on European company, which is called the “flagship of European company law”. In connection with a similar regulation, considerations were also referred to the European cooperative and the company formed as a result of a cross- order merger. Due to the size of the issue and the separate nature of the regulations, the participation of employees in European works committee in community-wide enterprises and groups of these enterprises was omitted. The author intends to determine whether the regulations introduced by the amendment to the Act on trade unions are consistent with the other solutions provided for in the laws concerning European business entities. For this purpose, she examines some examples of regulations leading to the conclusion of an agreement on the participation of workers in management of the company in Europe.
