Chronicle of international labor jurisprudence. January / june 2017
Abstract
In the reference period, there are no new “open” or “pending” complaints before the Committee on Freedom of Association. Neither the reports: no. 381 (329th meeting, Geneva, 9-24 March 2017); and No. 382 (330th meeting, Geneva, June 17, 2017) of the Freedom of Association Committee, referenced singular problems about the Kingdom of Spain.
The Court of Justice of the Union has issued two resolutions that directly affect to Spain: Rodrigo Sanz on working conditions in Public Universities, and Pérez Retamero on working time in mobile or itinerant activities. Reference is also made, although it does not affect Spain directly, the Asma Bougnaoui case because of the importance for our labor legal system of its doctrine on the use of Islamic headscarves in work centers. In the area of the ECHR, labor-related resolutions affecting Spanish citizens have not been issued during the reference period.
