This report studies practices in EU establishments for direct and indirect employee participation in
decision-making. Indirect employee participation is the involvement of employee representatives in
decision-making processes, while direct employee participation describes direct interaction between
employers and employees. The study builds on the survey data from the Eurofound Third European
Company Survey 0verview report and focuses on how direct and indirect employee participation
are related to each other and to national-level industrial relations characteristics. It establishes which
practices of employee participation are beneficial both for the establishment and the employees. It
finds that more extensive forms of direct and indirect employee participation are associated with
positive establishment outcomes.
