Paragraph 1
1. In order to make social Europe a realityhelp Member States to protect their social systems, which have been under great duress, and given the lessons from the pandemic and the war in Ukraine on the close interlinkages between our economic and welfare/social systems, it should be ensured that social rights are fully protected and safeguarded in case of conflict with economic freedoms, including by revising the current governance framework. As set out in previous European Parliament resolutions, possible tools to this effect include: - Pillar in the Treaties1 - Prosocial protection must be given an equal footing to economic convergence in national policymaking. To this end, recalls that the European Union was founded on a clear division between its competences and those of the Member States that make it up. This division allows the Member States to retain their identity and sovereignty, and the European Union to intervene to col to the Treaties2 - Development and Social Progress Pact making social and mplement their actions, where a European level is justified.

Paragraph 2
2. Further, the EU should move away from unanimity and special legislative procedures in order to enable EU action in areas where currently, due to the relevant decision-making provisions/scope of the Treaties, it has proved difficult/impossible, notably in areas falling under the EMPL Committee remit, and in order to further increase democratic decision-making. As already set out in previous European Parliament resolutions, possible tools to this effect include: - fall under the qualified majority decision process, in particular non-discrimination, social protection of workers (apart from cross-border situations), protection of workers whose employment contract has been terminated, the representation and collective defence of the interests of workers and employers, as well as conditions of employment for third- country nationals legally residing in the EU4; this can also be achieved by using the passerelle clauses5; - Parliament in defining the Integrated Guidelines for Growth and Jobs on an equal footing with the Council in the guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States to achieve equal footing with the Council6, - to the Semester process, and making it subject to an agreement between the Council and the European Parliament7. __________________________ 4 Ibid, paragraph 6 5 European Parliament resolution of 13 February 2019 on the state of the debate on the future of Europe (2018/2094(INI)), paragraph 7 6 resolution of 10 July 2020 on the proposal for a Council decision on guidelines for the employment policies of the Member States (COM(2020)0070 – C9-0079/2020 – 2020/0030(NLE)), Amendment 11 7 See above n. 1, paragraph 6deleted making more social policy areas involving the European applying the Community method European Parliament legislative
