Abstract

Job insecurity, as a feature of our labour market, is a multifactorial fact that impacts on poor working conditions and harms workers’ health. In this context, the interaction between social partners through collective bargaining, along with Labour Law, is the tool that working people have to get decent working conditions, and also to improve them.

In this respect, there is room for collective bargaining to deal with matters to uphold occupational health, considering that measures that fight precariousness of work have also impact on people’s health. The greatest guarantee for a good result on collective bargaining is to have a wider scope, to create collective rights for the greatest possible number of people.
