The European battery sector faces challenges, including poor working conditions and a lack of established social dialogue in
many production sites. As electrification transforms the automotive industry, existing workplaces will change, and newer companies often remain unorganised. 

The BatteryTUPower project aims to strengthen trade union capacity to represent workers, negotiate collective agreements, and
monitor occupational health and safety standards. It also supports job-to-job transitions through social dialogue, ensuring workers are retrained and upskilled. IndustriAll Europe affiliates are committed to building fair, healthy, and sustainable workplaces in this critical emerging sector. 

• Co-financed by the European Commission, participating affiliates, industriAll Europe, others tbc.
• Part of the industriAll Europe Organising Programme
