| A. | Mission The CLRC has the mission to protect the workers' rights of association and promote fair adjustments of labour relations. Its primary functions are (1) to process unfair labour practice charges under the Trade Union Law;(PDF:30KB) and (2) to promote smooth and fair settlement of labour disputes under the Labour Relations Adjustment Law. It exmines unfair labour practice cases that concern more than two prefecutures or those cases of nation-wide significance, reviews the first examinations of the Prefectural Labour Relations Commissions, and adjusts labour disputes through such measures as good offices, mediation and arbitration. The Prefectural Labour Relations Commissions are established in each prefecture in order to make the first examination of unfair labour practices and deal with labour disputes within their geographical area. |
