Abstract:

This paper reveals that U.S. and Canadian public sector labor policy fail to聽conform to international understandings of freedom of association, a fundamental聽human right.1 Globalization has set in motion new pressures for a reassessment聽of labor and union rights. A new paradigm is emerging where antiquated聽and inadequate labor policies that ignore these international standards may not聽be sustainable.2 By applying international human rights standards through such聽global institutions as the International Labor Organization (ILO), we find that聽most U.S public sector labor laws fall far short of international understandings聽of freedom of association and collective bargaining. While Canadian laws may聽conform to such understandings, Canadian governments have repeatedly violated聽the right to strike through frequent use of back-to-work laws.3 Our findings聽will underscore a contradiction between what is preached to the rest of the聽world and what is practiced at home in the United States and Canada in terms聽of human rights.
