Workers' councils

Workers' councils are groups of employees who come together to discuss and make decisions about their workplace. It's kind of like a club, but it's all about work. The workers' councils may discuss things like pay, work hours, and working conditions.

Imagine you and your friends work at a candy factory. If your candy factory had a workers' council, you and your friends could get together and talk about what you like and don't like about working there. You could talk about how much you get paid, what time you start and finish work, and whether or not you think the factory is safe.

The workers' council would then share those ideas and concerns with the people who run the candy factory. They might ask for better pay or safer conditions, and the people who run the factory would have to listen because they want to keep their workers happy.

Workers' councils can be really important because they give workers a chance to have a say in how their workplace is run, which helps them feel valued and respected. They can also help make sure that workers have fair working conditions and decent pay.
