Abstract :
[en] According to us, it matters to situate the sustainable development in relation to the social responsibility and to the question of the different actors. It is in this particular context that we will analyse the relationship between the trade unions and the sustainable development in Belgium. We will show the involvement of the trade unions in relation to the three areas which define the sustainable development: the environment protection, the work quality and its organization and the benefit notion. This implication depends on the relations between the actors: state, company, workers (notably the trade unions). The question of sustainable development is culturally rooted and is linked to a certain conception of the economy and of the social contract. Obstacles are liable to appear during the appropriation of the sustainable development by the trade unions. The resolution of these difficulties is linked with the company management, the corporate culture and the type of negotiation. The trade union involvement depends on particular situations and specific contexts. We will therefore show that a systemic and contingent approach to the problem is required.
