Case No 2436 (Denmark) - Complaint date: 21-JUN-05

The Union of Drivers in Copenhagen

Allegations

The complainant alleges that, in order to bypass the provisions of Danish law, which require as a condition for obtaining a taxi licence that the employees of the taxi company be paid in accordance with the relevant collective agreements, the Danish Taxi Companies’ Employers’ Association established a puppet union named the Drivers’ Association which entered into a collective agreement establishing less favourable terms and conditions of employment for taxi drivers. The complainant considers that the Government violated Convention No. 98 by recognizing the Drivers’ Association and, more generally, failing to protect workers’ organizations from interference by employers’ organizations
