Legitimacy without members? Hungarian lessons on how to guarantee trade union representativeness

Lihat Sumber DOI

Abstrak

Collective bargaining has a marginal and steadily diminishing role in employment regulation in Hungary. Flaws in the legal framework are certainly among the main reasons behind low and decreasing coverage. In the light of ILO standards and comparative national examples, this article analyses the Hungarian statutory rules on trade union representativeness and outlines potential reform measures to help reverse the downward trend in coverage. Our aim is to present the Hungarian experience on various aspects of trade union representativeness within a European theoretical framework, which may be of particular interest to labour markets with low union density, especially in Eastern Europe.
