4 PAGE 4 5 ECJ: Court Rulings ECHR Case 73571/10 on Freedom of Expression and Labour Obligations (Matúz v. Hungary) The applicant is a television journalist who was employed by the State television company. At the material time, he also was chairman of the Trade Union of Public Service Broadcasters. Following the appointment of a new cultural director, the applicant had contacted the television company s president, since he had perceived the new director s conduct in modifying and cutting certain contents of his TV show as censorship. He had received no response to his complaint. Later, the applicant published a book, which contained an full versions of from different censured interviews and in-house letter exchanges between the cultural director and the editor-in-chief concerning the suggested changes in the programme. Read more. ECJ Case C-252/13 on maternity leave (Commission v the Netherlands) The Commission started proceedings against the Netherlands, stating that the Netherlands allegedly did not establish sufficiently clearly that, if female workers returning after the end of the period of maternity leave are confronted with less favourable employment conditions, this is contrary to the prohibition on discrimination on the grounds of pregnancy, childbirth and motherhood. However, the ECJ had to dismiss the action, because not all of the formalities of Article 258 EU Treaty (ex 226 EC) were complied with. Read more. ECHR Case 48408/12 (Tymoshenko v Ukraine) The case concerned the ban on a strike by AeroSvit Airlines cabin crew. In September 2011 Aerosvit cabin crew decided to embark on industrial action seeking resolution of a labour dispute with the management of Aerosvit over a number of issues, including salaries, allowances and safety. The relevant authorities were notified of the decision to hold a strike. Following a claim lodged by Aerosvit in October 2011, the domestic courts banned the strike on the ground that it would be unlawful. The courts relied on the Transport Act, which prohibits strikes at transport enterprises if they affect the transportation of passengers and on the Resolution of Labour Disputes Act, which prohibits strikes if they are likely to endanger human life or health. Relying on Article 11 (freedom of assembly and association) of the Convention, the applicants complained about that. Read more.

Read more. ECJ Judgment in case C-328/13 (Österreichischer Gewerkschaftsbund) Case initiated by the Austrian Trade Union (Österreichischer Gewerkschaftsbund), against the Austrian employers association for bus, aviation and marine companies.

The trade union then brings proceedings against the employer seeking to enforce those rights. Two issues arise. Read more.
