This dissertation analyses, in a comparative perspective collective agreements
entered into in Belgium and in South Africa in the private sector. It is divided into
three parts: Belgian law, South African law and a comparative perspective. Each
part adopts the same format: it comprises a historical survey, a description of the
parties to collective agreements, the forums in which collective bargaining takes
place and an analysis of collective agreements, focusing on the nature of their
binding force.
Because Belgian law prohibits agency shop and closed shop agreements, on the
basis of the freedom of association, no reference has been made to these
agreements, even though they are permitted in South Africa and are regarded as
collective agreements.
This dissertation does not deal with collective agreements entered into to regulate
terms and conditions of employment in the public sector as state employees in
Belgium are excluded from the scope of labour law and have their employment
relationship governed by administrative law / Law / LL.M.
