Andorra Reforms Labor Law and Child Protection | Andorra News

Published 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Description

Andorra’s Constitutional Court just struck down a key labor law, ruling that mandatory arbitration in big disputes violated workers’ right to court access — sparking a bold new bill from the Democrats to make arbitration voluntary, with binding decisions still appealable, and only mandatory in extreme cases like essential service strikes. This reform balances efficiency, public safety, and fundamental rights — backed by parliamentary majority and tied to a broader EU pact set for fall signing. Meanwhile, Andorra also unanimously raised the age of consent to 16, toughened penalties for online child exploitation, and overhauled prisons to prioritize rehabilitation and cut pretrial detention.
