EU Funds Pro-Outsourcing Publicity Program
The European Union is currently engaged in a bit of domestic propaganda in an effort to encourage trade unions and employee representatives to embrace outsourcing. The organization, known as MOOS, is and EU funded effort at making offshore outsourcing, a primary concern of national labor organizations, more palatable to the nation as a whole and these organizations specifically. The organization's existence indicates a response by corporate europe to increasing concern within the European public about the effects of offshore outsourcing on the individual laborer. While the United States certainly has its share of corporate-led efforts supporting similar aims, and Bush's recent efforts to expand market competition in federal jobs all parallel this organization's efforts, a formal governmental agency tasked with offshore outsourcing lobbying is a new level of western government intervention into the debate over outsourcing.
