Summary: The right to strike starts to control in our country with the enactment of the Labour Code and then rises to a constitutional level in 1949, prohibiting strikes in public services. But the definition of these public services is a matter that can only be defined by the legislature. The International Labour Organization has accepted that the right to strike may be limited in essential public services. Our Constitutional Court has also defined that the right to strike may be limited by the legislature in public services. Costa Rica as a country has not taken a clear definition on the subject and was the last attempt to reform labor procedures that partially vetoed President Chinchilla.
