The article aims at analysing the evolution of national labour laws in Europe. It shows that beyond legal traditions, common trends may be identified which raised competition between workers, companies and ultimately states as the keywords of reforms. One of them is decentralization of collective bargaining at company level which generates competition amongst companies based on labour standards. Another one is the reduction for companies of dismissal costs justified by competition between national labour laws. It leads to an overall downgrading process of social rights at national level when the European Union has given up any ambition of harmonizing social and labour rights.
Keywords: Labour law; Dismissal; Collective bargaining; Competition.
