Selected Instruments of Collective Labour Law in the Light of the European Social Charter (Revised), the EU Charter of  Fundamental Rights, the ILO Conventions and the European Pillar of Social Rights

Abstract

The European Social Charter, the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights and the European Pillar of Social Rights, are tied by mutual interactions and inspirations. The aim of this study is to present the institution of solidarity action, lockout and protection of workers’ elected representatives, and reflection on which instruments of international law can be applied in these areas.
