EXECUTIVE COMMITTEES. In enterprises and companies with geographically separated operating units, the local social partners may agree that shop stewards may be elected by and of employees in the entire enterprise or company. Shop stewards may elect among themselves a coordinating committee composed of a chair, a vice- chair, and a secretary, provided the number of shop stewards is minimum 3. For industrial group works councils, please see Art. 4-8 Workplace cooperation in industrial groups. When an enterprise is split into smaller units and the former owners have major owner interests in the new companies, employees within the same trade union jurisdiction may demand that a joint committee of stewards be appointed for a transitional period of up to six months, provided there is an organisational basis for said joint committee.
