Eswatini - Union registration (2013)

The Trade Union Congress of Swaziland (TUCOSWA) is still de-registered. TUCOSWA has challenged the constitutionality of the government’s refusal to register the federation at the High Court of Swaziland on 11 February 2014. A hearing on the matter was scheduled for 19 March 2014, but unfortunately the government arrested the union’s lawyer two days before the hearing, forcing the union to seek a postponement of the hearing date.
