Union appeal dismissed; court rejects claim that employer must negotiate collective agreement with union.

The Labour Court dismissed the Post and Logistics Union's appeal against a decision refusing to order collective bargaining negotiations. The employer argued that no collective agreement was required for the specific services provided, while the union contended that a collective agreement was necessary for fair labor conditions. The court ruled that the statutory obligation to negotiate only applies when a collective agreement is explicitly required by law for the relevant sector or service type.
