About us
The Commission represents and upholds the interests of the EU as a whole, and is independent of national governments. The European Commission prepares legislation for adoption by the Council (representing the member countries) and the Parliament (representing the citizens). It administers the budget and the policy programmes (agriculture, fisheries, research etc.) in cooperation with authorities in the member countries.

🇦🇹 🇨🇿 🇭🇺 🇵🇱 🇷🇴 🇸🇰 Europe is by your side in this difficult moment. Today, President von der Leyen is in 🇵🇱 Wrocław to visit the areas recently affected by heavy floods and rains in Central Europe. She also discussed the response with the 🇵🇱 Prime Minister Donald Tusk, 🇨🇿 Prime Minister Petr Fiala, 🇸🇰 Prime Minister Robert Fico, and 🇦🇹 Chancellor Karl Nehammer. Through the EU Civil Protection Mechanism, the EU is working to provide emergency equipment. When the time comes, we will be ready to help rebuild leveraging Solidarity Found and, in a very flexible way, Cohesion Funds. This is #EUSolidarity. #EuropeanUnion

Every year in the EU, 700,000 people lose their lives due to tobacco consumption. To better protect people, especially children and the youth from tobacco, we are putting forward new recommendations on smoke-free environments, including: 🔹 extending smoke-free environment policies to outdoor areas, including public playgrounds and swimming pools; healthcare and education premises, 🔹 covering new products such as electronic cigarettes and heated tobacco goods. As the fight against cancer is also about prevention, we are making €96 million in EU funding available to support research on addiction prevention and strengthen tobacco control. Our objective? A tobacco free generation by 2040. #EUCancerPlan #EUHealthUnion

📌 Equal work deserves equal pay. On international #EqualPayDay, we reaffirm our commitment towards fairness and equality. In 2022, women earned 12.7% less than men per hour on average. It is time we close the gender pay gap. With our Pay Transparency Directive, the EU is pioneering equality, moving us closer to a fairer present and future. Our flagship policy establishes rules for fair and equitable remuneration. The new rules will help end pay discrimination through: 🔸 Pay transparency for jobseekers, 🔸 Right to information for employees, 🔸 Reporting on gender pay gap, 🔸 Joint pay assessment. ℹ https://europa.eu/!T3NBfT #UnionOfEquality
