The complaint was registered on 12 February 2024. It relates to Article 5 (the right to organise) of the revised European Social Charter. SMB Norge alleges that the exception provided for in the Working Environment Act section 14-12 second paragraph is contrary to the freedom of association provided for in Article 5 of the Charter in that it requires that only trade unions with at least 10,000 members may enter into agreements with employers to hire staff through temporary employment agencies.
