• to share information on collective bargaining and welfare provision for self-employed and employees at risk as the central tool to face the downturn of professionals;
• to stimulate Professionals to prevent their redundancy due to digitalisation;
• to identify essential collective bargain pattern at European level to be downstream in the national level.
