The principle of proportionality in labour law
Christos P. Nikolaidis,
Public Prosecutor (Associate), Doctor of Law,
scholar of National Scholarships Foundation
Abstract: The principle of proportionality in private law and particularly in
labour law emanates from the principles of good faith and prohibition of abuse
of rights. It applies in every case of an unilateral intervention by a person on
the legal sphere of another person, without the latter being able to defend
itself against it. The principle of proportionality in labour law is applied to the
control of the restrictions of freedom of association, as well as to the control
of the exercise of the freedom of contract and the exercise of the rights of
management, termination of employment, work retention and strike.
