In Europe and on other continents, workers and their trade unions are experiencing various threats to their right to strike. Strikers and their trade unions are criminalised or hit with horrendous compensation claims. The justification for certain strike targets or certain forms of strike is being called into question. The legal guarantee of the right to strike is contested. Certain occupational groups and the workers in some sectors of the economy are denied the right to strike. This situation poses enormous challenges for labour lawyers, university lawyers and trade unionists.
Trade unions and their lawyers are fighting to guarantee the right to strike not only before national courts but also before the Court of Justice of the European Union, the European Court of Human Rights and the International Court of Justice. The aim of this conference is to highlight and discuss the existing legal options for action to preserve the right to strike. The speakers will share their experiences and expertise and support us with their presentations and contributions to the discussion.
A certificate (6 hours) in accordance with § 15 FAO (German law) will be issued by the VDJ on application for Certified Lawyers specialised in labour law.
