What representation do workers have on the boards of directors of State-Owned Enterprises?
Some of the organic laws of the public companies created by law establish that workers must be represented on their boards of directors, in some cases with the right to speak and in others with the right to speak and vote. Thus, in the case of Empresa de los Ferrocarriles del Estado and Empresas Portuarias Estatales, the board of directors also includes a workers' representative with the right to speak. In the case of Televisión Nacional de Chile, Banco Estado and Codelco, the workers' representative is a member of the Board of Directors with the right to speak and vote.
