Summary/Abstract: A unique feature of EU law on the European Company (EC) is that it is closely linked to employee participation from the moment of its creation. The participation mechanism enables employees to influence decisions made within the company. Since providing employees with the right to participate often prolongs the procedure for setting up an EC, some entrepreneurs are seeking ways to circumvent this mechanism. The aim of this study is therefore to determine what is meant by the abusive behaviour of an EC that may lead to the deprivation or suspension of the right and what legal remedies are considered appropriate under EU law to counteract it. The implementation of the objectives will be based not only on the analysis of the legal regulations and case law of the CJEU, but also on the practice of European companies operating on the market.
