Abstract:

This national report for Belgium is part of the VIRAGE project on industrial relations, social dialogue and gender equality. VIRAGE aims to study how industrial relations and social dialogue can shape progress towards the achievement of gender equality in Europe. Funded by the Directorate-General for Employment, Social Affairs and Inclusion of the European Commission, the project is coordinated by the Brussels-based think tank CEPS and implemented in partnership with HIVA-KU Leuven (Belgium), University of Gothenburg (Sweden), Warsaw School of Economics (Poland) and Sapienza – University of Rome (Italy). This report presents an overview of the context, policies and legislation relevant to gender equality in Belgium, taking into consideration the national, regional and community levels, and the scope of actions by industrial relations actors.
