In February 2003 the French NCP received a request for review from a trade union alleging that a subsidiary of a French multinational enterprise operating in Romania had breached the employment and industrial relations provisions of the Guidelines by not disclosuring the required economic and financial information for negotiating employee's salary increases.

A collective labour agreement was finalised between the parties on 12 March 2003. The NCP took into consideration the successful negotiations and concluded the specific instance accordingly.
