The right to form and join trade unions is entrenched in which UDHR article?

• A. Art 21(3)
• B. Art 23(4)
• C. Art 26(1)
• D. Art 2

Answer: (B)

The main idea is recognizing where the UDHR explicitly protects workers’ ability to organize. The UDHR includes a specific provision under the rights related to work that states everyone has the right to form and to join trade unions for the protection of his interests. That direct wording is what anchors the right to form and join trade unions, making the corresponding article the correct reference.

Other UDHR provisions address different areas—one covers political participation and elections, another covers the right to education, and another protects against discrimination—so they don’t entrench the specific freedom to form and join unions.
