Participation
In 2013 the 48 personnel policy committees and delegations consisted of 360 members. As democratically elected staff representatives, 140 women and 220 men performed a key role with extensive participation rights at corporate level.
As an occupational social partner of the companies and the regional cooperatives, they represented the social and economic interests of employees in all business units at around 1300 sites.
The personnel policy committees are democratically authorised and representative. Their candidatures were supported by more than 5000 colleagues, and thousands of votes were submitted during the election. The personnel policy committees also represent the executive employees below the directorate level, who can contribute their expertise to the committees accordingly. With a share of 81.2% employees, 2.8% apprentices and 16% executive employees, Migros has a broad and balanced representation in its personnel policy committees.
