"The EU’s enlargement is a successful process that brought peace and prosperity to Europe. The EU continues to attract other states due to its unique combination of economic and social dynamism and I regret that the social dimension is overlooked in the enlargement process. The socially relevant includes the minimum standards for labour rights, gender equality, and health and safety at work. Failure to respect these can be seen as a form of ‘social dumping’, which is detrimental to both European employers and workers, and could effectively prevent a candidate state from joining the single market. We must give more careful consideration to improving implementation mechanisms, such as workplace inspections, worker protection, access to social rights and prevention of exploitation, in particular the exploitation of undocumented workers. Equally important is implementation of the gender equality policy. One of the countries that is suitable to join the European family, as confirmed by the accession negotiations, is the Republic of Moldova, a success story that has made great progress in a short period of time."@en1
