This shows how off the priorities of @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu II and EPP are pursuing an agenda of corporate interest As @epsu.bsky.social @corporateeurope.org and others have argued: the Commission is captured The omnibuses do zero [0] to promote interests of working people and our communities

👀 Spot yourself... If you can! From workplace actions and demonstrations to conferences and rallies, this is just a glimpse of our movement across Europe. ✊🏾 That's a proud moment for us! Can you find yourself or your union? More photos here👇🏾 www.epsu.org/article/work...

Analysis @theguardian.com on what could be called the pest of private equity sucking up public contracts and public money in UK. That money finds its way to the pockets of the rich, not to workers, not to improving quality of services Related research covers child and adult care @epsu.bsky.social

Several workers in a youth assistance facility in Stade (DE) killed in brutal accident of third party violence Our thoughts and sympathies with co-workers, families, friends German union @social.verdi.de calls for better protection of social workers @epsu.bsky.social @dgbniedersachsen.bsky.social

From childcare to elderly support, care workers came together at the European Parliament. Problems across Europe are the same: ◾️ staff shortages ◾️ low wages ◾️ privatisation ◾️ violence EPSU General Secretary @jwgoudriaan.bsky.social: "This is an alarming #PublicServicesEmergency!"

Is it #TooHotToWork? EPSU, @effat.org and @efbww.bsky.social developed a Model Directive on maximum working temperatures. European Commission must introduce a binding EU legislation before the next deadly summer. Read more👇🏾 www.epsu.org/article/tooh...

And no unions either Yet there are consequences for workers health and safety The corporate capture of the Commission is near complete such that tax omnibus hands out 5 bn to corporate Europe No counter obligations And more freebees as Commission abandons anti tax avoidance @epsu.bsky.social

Powerful story of international #solidarity as @fbunational.bsky.social / activists assisted Palestinian rescue workers Documentary showing Alas Israel still holding fire truck intended for West Bank @redpeppermag.bsky.social @epsu.bsky.social @psiglobalunion.bsky.social @iaffcanada.bsky.social

It’s no surprise if one looks to the Annex, in which the two declare who they took inputs from: it’s the who is who of pesticide corporations & their lobby organisations. No representative of civil society, no independent experts. This is corporate capture. They are a danger to public health.

Hospitals in France at breaking point. Staff under strain EU's preparedness strategy and implementation did not get priority @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu was busy focusing on big business and competitiveness in Antwerpen Wrong priority resulting in another #publicservicesemergency @epsu.bsky.social

Heat is hammering women's health and income ➡️excess mortality, premature births Impact excessive heat most underestimated factor for economy and society More investment needed in public health. Alas money to defense and leaving rich alone get priority @epsu.bsky.social @foeeurope.bsky.social

Austerity sucks - and public service workers know it. @unison.org.uk's Clare Williams, @andreaegangs.bsky.social and Gloria Mills stand with EPSU’s #PublicServicesEmergency fight for investment, decent pay, more staff and strong collective bargaining!

Les services publics reposent avant tout sur l’engagement des femmes et des hommes qui les font vivre chaque jour. A l'occasion de la #JIFP, nous réaffirmons notre soutien à toutes les agentes et les agents publics. Sans agents publics, pas de service public. @epsu.bsky.social

🚨 No public money for tax dodgers. We met with MEP Pasquale Tridico, @fisc.europarl.europa.eu Chair, to discuss how revision of the EU Public Procurement Directive can become a tool against tax avoidance. Tax omnibus & 28th Regime will lead further tax dodging. See the proof in the thread👇🏾

Chaque jour, des millions d’agentes et d’agents publics s’engagent au service de la population. Reconnaître leur engagement, améliorer leur attractivité et leur donner les moyens d’exercer leurs missions, c’est préparer l’avenir de nos services publics. #JIFP2026  @epsu.bsky.social

L’UNSA Fonction Publique et l’@EPSUnions, portent le même message : défendre des services publics de qualité, accessibles à toutes et tous, et garantir la reconnaissance des agentes et agents qui les rendent possibles. #jifp2026 #FonctionPublique #ServicesPublics #UNSA @epsu.bsky.social

The Commission’s Tax Omnibus is being presented as simplification. We see something else: billions in new tax breaks for corporations, weaker safeguards against avoidance, and less revenue for public services already under pressure. 🤑 Our response here: www.epsu.org/article/tax-...

L’avenir des services publics dépend de leur capacité à attirer et à conserver les compétences dont ils ont besoin. Reconnaissance, rémunération, conditions de travail : l’attractivité de la Fonction publique est un enjeu majeur pour notre société. #JIFP2026 #AgentsPublics  @epsu.bsky.social

🔥 In this #heat, work cannot continue without serious protection But does the law do enough to protect us?

Public services need more than warm words. They need staff, fair pay, public investment and democratic control. Tonight in Brussels, we joined @akeuropa.bsky.social with Vera Weghmann and @jwgoudriaan.bsky.social to continue the fight against the #PublicServicesEmergency beyond Public Service Day!

🚨 Europe's public service workers have a message: you cannot ignore #PublicServicesEmergency anymore! In Brussels, on Public Service Day, EPSU General Secretary @jwgoudriaan.bsky.social delivered the message thousands of workers have been raising across Europe for weeks: Enough of austerity!

A powerful message from the colleagues at the @cfdt.fr Congress in Bordeaux against austerity! We stand against the #PublicServicesEmergency together! We need: ☑️ Higher wages ☑️ More staff ☑️ Public investment ❌ Not austerity!

Tomorrow @ec.europa.eu publishes the Tax Omnibus. EPSU's @jwgoudriaan.bsky.social: "Under the guise of simplification, this is a giveaway to corporations. It increases the risk of tax avoidance. So-called savings are at the expense of public finances, undermining public services & pensions." (1/2)

🍨 One scoop of better pensions 🍨 One scoop of public investment 🍨 One scoop of more staff EPSU, CSC Services Publics, CGSP and SYNOVAC took a joint action against #PublicServicesEmergency! Public service workers deserve more than warm words: higher pay, more staff, public investment!

Tänään on YK:n julkisen palvelun päivä. Euroopan julkiset palvelut ovat hätätilassa leikkausten vuoksi, mikä näkyy meilläkin henkilöstöpulana ja uupumisena. @epsu.bsky.social ja #Tehy taistelevat yhdessä sote-alan työntekijöiden oikeuksien puolesta aina EU-tasolla asti. #PublicServicesEmergency

The #PublicServicesEmergency call took centre stage at the @etuc-ces.bsky.social Euro-demo in Madrid 🇪🇸. EPSU affiliates in Spain raised the alarm over understaffing, low pay and years of underinvestment that are pushing public services to breaking point.
