Civil Service Commission Law

The civil service law makes no provision for collective bargaining between government workers and their employers. Technically, the government is responsible for establishing wages and employment conditions for civil service workers, but it generally determined benefits in consultation with civil service unions, such as the Government Workers Union. Union officials resolved most issues at the working level and had regular access to senior officials. The civil service law also prescribes additional working conditions for the public sector, which consisted almost entirely of citizen workers.
