New EU laws on AI at work risk slowing down AI adoption and innovation. ⚠️ @europarl.europa.eu 's report on AI at Work (2025/2080(INL)) should not call for extra legislation when the #AIAct, #GDPR & labour law already apply. Focus on enforcing existing rules. #FutureOfWork #EUPolicy

Last night, @consilium.europa.eu & @europarl.europa.eu struck a deal on #OmnibusI, including simplifications to #CSRD & #CSDDD & a strong value-chain cap tied to the #VSME standard.

Especially for #SMEs, this means legal clarity, a shield from disproportionate data requests & less red tape.

Yesterday, @consilium.europa.eu & @europarl.europa.eu struck a deal that supports the #EUDR’s objectives while safeguarding European competitiveness. The 1-year postponement & targeted simplifications provide businesses with more time to adapt & relieve them of disproportionate admin. burdens.
Eurochambres welcomes today’s @Europarl_EN vote on the #EUDR supporting a postponement for all businesses. With time running short, we urge policymakers to swiftly reach an agreement in the upcoming trilogue negotiations.
