Employment Law and the European Convention on Human Rights : The Research of the Recent Jurisprudence of the ECtHR Related to Employment Law (2017-2021)
152 p.
- In recent years, the tendency of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) to treat human rights as indivisible and consider cases relevant to employment has contributed significantly to jurisprudence relating to human rights at work in the Council of Europe. This indispensable book is the first to thoroughly survey and analyse recent ECtHR's cases relevant to employment law. It is based on a deeply informed structural analysis of more than fifty cases considered by the ECtHR during 2017-2021, many of which have not heretofore been considered in the legal literature.The authors examine, in particular, the following topics raised in the jurisprudence of the ECtHR:privacy and surveillance;freedom of thought, conscience and religion;freedom of expression;discrimination;unfair dismissal;forced labour;collective bargaining; andthe right to strike.The authors explore the reasoning that led the ECtHR to broaden the scope of Article 8 ECHR, which protects the right to private life, in order to develop new employment
- rights. They also detail the impact of International Labour Organization (ILO) standards on the Court's jurisprudence.As a clear and eminently useable guide to the applicability of ECHR for protection of labour rights and human rights at work, this book is of practical value to labour lawyers in spelling out the legal positions of the ECtHR which might support individual and collective labour rights protection in national proceedings. Academics in the field will appreciate the authors' clarification of the trends of the ECtHR's reasoning, especially in respect of the right to workplace privacy. [Publisher's text].
