Workers' Representatives Convention, 1971 (No. 135) - Romania (RATIFICATION: 1975)

The Committee notes the texts of the three fundamental labour laws adopted by the Romanian Parliament: Act No. 54 concerning trade unions of 1 August, Act No. 13 concerning collective labour agreements of 8 February 1991, and Act No. 15 concerning the settlement of collective labour disputes of 11 February and the new Constitution of 8 December 1991.

The Committee notes with interest that the new texts, and the repeal of several legislative provisions which had been the subject of its previous observations, change the general orientation of the industrial relations system, establish trade union pluralism and the independence of the trade union movement, and provide a number of protective measures for workers' representatives.
