Summary/Abstract: This study aims at performing a critical analysis of the Decision No 814/2015 of the Constitutional Court, by which the Court ascertained the unconstitutionality of Article 60 (1) g) of the Labour Code, which regulated the prohibition of dismissing trade union leaders, except in cases they committed serious or repeated misconducts. Also, the study puts forward a critical exam of the provisions regulating the prohibition of dismissing trade union leaders, emphasizing regulatory errors, by using historical arguments, and making consistent references to the relevant international and European legislation and case law.
