Abstract

Trade unions in Nigeria play a normative role in promoting industrial peace and harmony. They act to maintain equilibrium in the bargaining powers between employers and employees. Without trade unions, employers’ natural exploitative tendencies of employees will be heightened without any obstacles. Given the positives implication attached to trade unions in promoting industrial peace and harmony, the laws relating to trade unions in Nigeria should be such that registered trade unions are compulsorily recognized by employers and adequately supported to maintain an equilibrium in the bargaining process to promote industrial peace and harmony, this paper examined the Nigerian Trade Union Act and highlighting the positive normative, Implications of the Act. The National Industrial Court (hereinafter referred to as NIC) has, in several decisions, held that recognition of a registered trade union by an employer is obligatory. Even though this position by NIC is statutory.
