Resumen: Sobre la base de que la Unión Europea tiene la condición jurídica de empresario del personal (funcionarial y laboral) a su servicio, este trabajo analiza los acuerdos colectivos (denominados «acuerdos marco») negociados entre la Comisión Europea y los sindicatos (eventualmente, sindicatos minúsculos) que considera representativos de dicho personal. Sorprendentemente, se trata de acuerdos negociados separadamente con los sindicatos representativos del personal activo y del personal pasivo. Respecto de los que afectan al personal activo, la jurisprudencia comunitaria viene sosteniendo que se trata de acuerdos que poseen eficacia obligacional, pero no verdadera eficacia normativa.

Abstract: On the basis that the European Union has the legal condition of employer of the staff (civil servants and employees) serving it, this work analyzes the collective agreements (called «frame agreements») entered between the European Commission and the trade unions (eventually, tiny trade unions) considered by it as the representative ones of such staff. Surprisingly, they are agreements separately celebrated with the representative trade unions of active and retired staff. Regarding those affecting to active staff, the European case law maintains that they are agreements having contractual efficacy, but not true normative efficacy.
