Community Charter of the Fundamental Social Rights of Workers

It referred to the mention of disability in the Community Charter of the Fundamental Social Rights of Workers, para 26.

However, the European Union's Community Charter of the Fundamental Social Rights of Workers permits EU member states to regulate the right to strike.

The Treaty of Lisbon reconfirms Member States' commitment to the basic social rights set out in the European Social Charter (in 1961) and in the Community Charter of the Fundamental Social Rights of Workers (in 1989).

These rights, previously laid down in the European Social Charter of 1961, and in the Community Charter of the Fundamental Social Rights of Workers, of 1989, are now, as I have said, included in the European Union' s Charter of Fundamental Rights.
