A Single Currency for Europe — Considerations for Workers

In: The Impact of the Euro

Abstract

The Amsterdam European Council in June 1997 marked the point when, finally, the penny — or should I say the Euro- dropped for many people in the UK, including a fair number of our leading politicians who should have been better informed about the strength of political will driving the project. There would be a single currency. Indeed, the exchange rates for the 11 initial participants were fixed on 1 January 1999, in advance of a three-year transition period at the end of which Euro notes and coins will have become the common tender for most European citizens.
