12 C87: Freedom of Association and Protection of the Right to Organise Convention, 1948 A system of democracy and the respect of fundamental human rights are essential to full and genuine FOA The interdependence of FOA and civil liberties was reiterated in the ILO 1970 Resolution Concerning Trade Union Rights and Their Relation to Civil Liberties Protection of freedom against potential restrictions or infringements by the State

14 The right to strike Most visible form of collective action in the context of a labour dispute Even if not expressly mentioned in ILO Conventions on FOA, the right to strike is fully recognized and protected Right to strike recognized by other international instruments Legitimate weapon of workers organizations in furtherance of their members interests
15 C87 This Convention applies to public servants engaged in the administration of the State as well Only exceptions provided are the armed forces and the police interpreted narrowly
16 C98: Right to Organise and Collective Bargaining Convention, 1949 Three principles of the Convention Protection of workers against anti-union discrimination Protection of workers and employers organizations against interference by each other Promotion of voluntary collective bargaining
17 Collective Bargaining Obligation to negotiate in good faith: Implies genuine and consistent efforts by both parties to reach an agreement Does not mean that there is an obligation to conclude an agreement Any unjustified delay in the holding of negotiations should be avoided Support measures aiming at promoting collective bargaining (information, statistics, voluntary procedures designed to facilitate bargaining)
