"I voted in favour of this resolution on the external dimension of social policy, promoting labour and social standards and European corporate social responsibility. It should be stressed that the external dimension of social policy includes EU activities and initiatives aimed at promoting labour and social standards in non-member countries. This includes opportunities for men and women to obtain decent and productive work in conditions of freedom, equality, security and dignity. International labour standards should, above all, ensure the development of people as human beings. People are not goods whose price can be negotiated. Work is a part of our everyday lives and is critical for the dignity, welfare and development of a person. The EU has a good reputation in terms of international dialogue on social issues. In this regard, it is considered a sensitive and trusted partner. This must be used to achieve more ambitious goals set by the EU. One of them is to build a coherent, integrated and professional EU approach to the external dimension of social policy. Coordination within the European Parliament is key, as is coordination with the European Commission and the newly established External Action Service."@en1
