| Abstract: | In this paper the authors examine the application and mostly the misapplication of some of the rights laid down in the 1948 Declaration to issues of labour relations in Israel. Since basic human rights are supposed to protect people from abuse and harm, one would expect that basic human rights would be valid and sacred in any context, including industrial relations. However, the complexity of the employee-employer relationship obscures this issue, and it is not clear whether such rights can be protected in this context, or whether they are even valid in the context of industrial relations. Since rights are relational, they a preconditioned on the special nature of the relationship between employees and employers. If employees have a particular right, then employers must be assigned a matching duty. |
