for Labour Law and Industrial Relations
in the European Union
THE INSTITUTE
The employees of the IAAEU research the underlying economic and legal conditions for labour in a constantly changing European society. Our task is project-related research, which is interdisciplinary, socially relevant and receives international attention. The goal is to influence the public discourse with scientific findings and thereby improve the conditions for labour and industrial relations. In that light, the institute understands itself as an initiating force for other researchers and for the region. The IAAEU was founded as a public law foundation in 1983. The institute is financed by the German Federal State of Rhineland-Palatinate and is also a scientific institution attached to Trier University. It is located on Campus II of the University.
Research at the IAAEU takes place under a tight cooperation between the two chairs of the co-directors Prof. Dr. Daniel Ulber (European Labour Law and Civil Law) and Prof. Dr. Laszlo Goerke (Business Administration – Personnel Economics). Furthermore, the institute maintains an extensive library with a unique collection of works pertinent to labour law, industrials relations, particularly industrial relations between member states of the EU, and personnel economics.
IAAEU participated in the Annual Conference of the Verein für Socialpolitik (VfS), held in Cologne from 14 to 17 September. The Annual Meetings of the VfS are among the largest and most prestigious economic conferences in Europe, bringing together scholars from a wide range of fields.
On 12 and 13 September, Björn Becker participated in the GRAPE Gender Gaps Conference in Warsaw, which offered a full programme that brought together researchers from all over Europe in the Polish capital.
The IAAEU can currently only be reached by telephone to a limited extent. If possible, please send us your enquiries by e-mail.
On Thursday, September 4, 2025, the IAAEU library will be closed due to construction work!
