Analysis of the New Trade Union System: New Conditions for Establishment and Expanded Powers
A new system for trade unions, sectoral unions, and the General Federation of Workers in the Sultanate of Oman has been issued after six years of the previous regulation. The decision No. 284/2026, issued by His Excellency Dr. Mahad bin Said Bawain, Minister of Labor, includes important amendments, such as linking the establishment of trade unions to the number of workers, allowing the formation of a union for establishments with more than 50 employees. Additionally, previous references to the Social Dialogue Committee have been removed. The reforms expand the powers of the unions, enabling them to negotiate collective labor agreements. The authority of the General Federation has been broadened, outlining cases for membership suspension and clarifying the conditions. The new system also removes references to the Social Dialogue Committee, establishing mechanisms for implementing provisions and resolving collective disputes, thereby enhancing the protection of workers' rights within a new regulatory framework.
