Abstract EN:

At a time when the lebanese employment and labor code might be reformed, we observe that a system governing collective bargaining, unionization and concerted activities, which comes in addition to the traditional individual employment relationship centered on the employment contract, has progressively emerged in lebanon. However, the law on unionization is still confined to the recognition of union freedom and the right to strike is neither well recognized nor protected by the constitution. Moreover, even if signing a collective bargaining agreement has been possible since the enactment of a 1964 statute, such agreements are still rare, even though collective bargaining would constitute a true improvement for the employee social security system. Nevertheless, a unique grievance procedure enables the diverging interests to be reconciled when a conflict occurs between employer and employee
