Description

The project is a first pilot of an analytical tool to assess social dialogue and participation at enterprise level based on a similar tool implemented in Norway.

The project will strengthen the functioning and quality of social dialogue at company level in Slovakia, by creating a measurement tool to be used by companies to improve local social dialogue conditions. The project is inspired by a similar tool developed by the Norwegian partner NHO, and it will be adapted to the Slovakian situation. The  “Ranking of Social Corporate Participation Space Structure” (R-SCPSC) tool will be created as a pilot project, but the long-term ambition is to expand the use of this tool among a larger number of enterprises and create sustainable impact. 

This is the third project to be carried out by the project promoter National Union of Employers´ (NUE) in partnership with the NHO and supported by Norway grants. While the two first projects focused on improving social dialogue at tripartite level, this project will address the expressed need for strengthening participation and dialogue in enterprises among NUE members. 

The following activities will be carried out:  
- The preparation and testing of the tool ''Ranking of Social Corporate Participation Space Structure ''(R-SCPSC)
- Workshop – Usual Practice of “Medvirkningsmeteret" in Oslo where a first version of the methodology will be discussed by project partners and experts
- The implementation of an initial pilot application of ranking in a selected company. 
- Presentation of results of the R-SCPSC to NUE members and preparation of training materials for  the use of this tool in any NUE member company
-  Publicity via usual media tools: PR campaign, press conference and social media.
