BARMETAL Final Conference discussing digitalization, automation, and decarbonization in the metalworking industry.

About the BARMETAL Project

Since 2022, the WageIndicator Foundation has been part of a consortium studying situation and opportunities for strengthening collective bargaining in the metalworking industry in conditions of technological change, including in particular digitalization, automatization and decarbonization. With this focus, the project directly responds to evidence that the COVID-19 pandemic accelerates the technology dissemination and the digital transformation of metal, engineering and tech-based industries and workplaces.

Having completed the research, the consortium presented its findings in an online event on the 20th of September.

This project is funded by the European Commission (Project Code: SOCPL-2021-IND-REL).
