Great news for the staff of the Croatian National Bank! An “Initiative Committee,” made up of staff members from the Central Bank, is currently working on the creation of a trade union within the Central Bank. This initiative is warmly welcomed, and SCECBU is committed to providing all the support the Initiative Committee may need.
Excerpt from the message sent by the Initiative Committee on January 31, 2025, to Thierry Desanois, President of SCECBU:
“Dear Mr Desanois,
We are pleased to inform you that we have initiated the process of establishing a trade union for the employees of our organization—something you and your colleagues have been encouraging us to consider for over a decade. We would like to sincerely thank you for your ongoing support and dedication to promoting strong social dialogue within our, European central banks’ sector.
We firmly believe that the time has come for us to be an active part of a meaningful social dialogue. This decision is further reinforced by the openness our management has demonstrated on multiple occasions, including by hosting both yourself personally and the meeting of SCECBU’s Executive Committee at our premises.
We see this as a clear expression of goodwill and support for fostering constructive engagement between employees and management within the appropriate institutional frameworks.
We will keep you informed about the progress of this initiative, and once again, we truly appreciate your years of effort and commitment to this cause.“
