Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Why do European Union (EU) Member States with reputations for supporting deeper integration have so much difficulty implementing EU labor policy? Each year, the European Commission initiates infringement cases against Member States for failure to implement labor policy. Member States� responses to these cases vary substantially. Why did 29 per cent of infringement cases against France for failure to implement labor policy between 1978 and 2000 reach the European Court of Justice (ECJ) while only 5.8 per cent of cases against Greece went to the ECJ during the same period? Why have 29.2 per cent of cases against Luxembourg ended before the ECJ while only 6.3 per cent of cases against the Netherlands required ECJ action? Existing analyses of European policy implementation do not answer these questions. This article addresses these questions by examining 186 infringement cases and the administrative oversight structures Member State governments use to ensure proper implementation of labor policy. I argue that Member State governments' resolution of infringement cases depends on their ability rather than their willingness to make the changes neccessary to avoid referral to the ECJ.
