Chapter 5

5. Trade union rights

[ch 5: page 55]

This Chapter summarises the key rights that are available to trade unions to support organising and collective bargaining over terms and conditions. This guide does not cover the UK’s industrial action laws which are detailed and complicated. However, there is a separate LRD guide to industrial action.
