Et af de særlige træk ved de nordiske lande er, at fastlæggelsen af løn- og arbejdsvilkår i vidt omfang er overladt til forhandlinger mellem arbejdsmarkedets parter. Formålet med denne rapport er at belyse en række af de udfordringer, som de arbejdsretlige systemer i de nordiske lande står over for i mødet med et stadig mere veludviklet europæisk retssystem. Den første del af rapporten er udarbejdet af rapportens redaktør professor, dr. jur. Jens Kristiansen fra Københavns Universitet og fokuserer på en række af de generelle udfordringer, som de europæiske regler og retsafgørelser stiller de arbejdsretlige systemer i de nordiske lande over for. Rapportens anden del er udarbejdet af forskellige repræsentanter for arbejdsgiver- og lønmodtagerforeninger i de nordiske lande og belyser nogle af de udfordringer, som arbejdsmarkedets parter oplever i mødet med det europæiske retssystem.
