Convention (n° 87) sur la liberté syndicale et la protection du droit syndical, 1948 - Ukraine (Ratification: 1956)

The Committee had previously noted article 127 of the Constitution of Ukraine according to which, “professional judges shall not belong to trade unions” and requested the Government to take the necessary measures to ensure the right of judges to establish organizations of their own choosing to further and defend the interests of their members. The Committee regrets that no information has been provided by the Government in this respect. It therefore once again recalls that the guarantee of the right of association should apply to all workers, including public servants, with the sole possible exception of the armed forces and the police. The Committee therefore, once again, requests the Government to provide information on the measures taken on envisaged to ensure the right of judges to establish organizations of their own choosing to further and defend the interests of their members.
