FIT Europe represents the interests of around 40,000 freelance translators and interpreters in Europe and welcomes the Commission's proposals to update the Directive. There is considerable anecdotal evidence among the translator/interpreter community of dire payment practices and various member associations of FIT Europe have began efforts to more accurately map payment practices in their relevant countries.
