| Summary: | Convention 87 of International Labour Organisation (ILO) states the freedom and the right of workers to join trade unions. This means that workers should be given freedom to join trade unions of their own choice without any limitations by any legislation. Even though the Convention is not legally binding, it is binding on the member countries of the ILO to preserve the right of their workers from being the victimised by the employers. The purpose of carrying out this research is to look into the existing provisions in statutory laws such as Industrial Relations Act 1967 and the Trade Unions Act 1959. This research will look into the protection given by international law and local statutory provisions and identify the limitations that restrict the freedom of the workers to join the trade unions of their choice. |
