We need labor market reform, because we cannot continue to claim that we must work more in step with greater automation and more people on the planet. What we need in the labor market of the future is a clear social vision, a strong sense of community and a strengthened labor market in the EU.
The labour market is evolving very quickly and digital and remote work are quickly becoming part and parcel with the Future of Work. This is why we need to engage now and ensure worker's rights to ensure that a flexible labour market benefit the citizens!
Volt has defined 5+1 fundamental Challenges that need to be tackled in each European country and in Europe as a whole.
Why 5 + 1 Challenges?
The 5 Challenges are basically the same for every country, but their implementation can be adapted on the national level to take into account local realities.
The +1 Challenge – our proposal to reform and strengthen the EU – is identical across all our national programmes.

People must be empowered to influence politics beyond elections alone
