Expert in employee participation and labor relations
Our team brings together experienced professionals with deep expertise in employee participation and organizational change. We have guided numerous complex advisory and consent processes, as well as high-stakes negotiations.
Having worked closely with both works councils and executive teams, we understand the dynamics, challenges, and perspectives on both sides of the table. We focus on finding balanced solutions that truly work, for the organization and its people alike.
We also collaborate with a trusted network of legal, HR, and communications experts. When additional expertise is needed, we can bring in the right specialists to create tailored solutions that fit your organization’s needs.
At CouncilWorks, we’re always looking for people who share our passion for effective employee participation and strong workplace dialogue. Whether you’re an experienced professional or ready for your next step, we’d love to hear from you.
We’re open to meeting people who want to help build better decision-making and collaboration within organizations.
At CouncilWorks, we make employee participation work. We train and support works councils and employers on participation issues and during complex transitions such as reorganizations, mergers, and negotiations on employment conditions.
Our strength lies in having experience on both sides of the table. We understand how and when to exercise real influence. Not just through formal processes, but where it truly matters: in practice, with an eye for both results and relationships.
CouncilWorks believes that balanced labor relations are the key to healthy, agile, and future-ready organizations. Employee participation creates real value only when it works in practice. As a constructive partnership between employees and employers, not as a box-ticking exercise.
We aim for a working Netherlands where participation drives shared growth and progress.

We believe in balanced relationships where all voices matter — between us, our clients, and between employers and employees.
Turning participation into real results — timely, strategic, and effective in practice.
Bridging perspectives through experience on both sides of the table.
Open, honest communication that builds trust and drives progress.
