Impacts of EU rules on the free movements of workers and services: intra-EU labour mobility as a tool to match labour market needs and skills
An own-initiative report on the impacts of EU rules on the free movement of workers and services and intra-EU labour mobility. The amendments focus on the European Labour Authority, equal treatment and exploitation of cross-border and seasonal workers, the agricultural and agri-food sectors' reliance on seasonal labour, the effect of COVID-19 movement restrictions on food supply, and EU instruments such as the European Social Fund, EaSI, EURES and recruitment-agency oversight.

Plenary votes
10 roll-call votesIn plenary, Parliament usually votes in steps: first on amendments to the text (sometimes split into parts, so Members can accept one half of a sentence and reject the other), then on the text as a whole. The “main vote” is the one that adopts or rejects the text itself. Each vote below shows exactly which step it was. How voting works →
