Dear all, good evening. The minimum number of employees required to register and formulate a union for employees is 5 members. Is there a rule for accepting the union for employers regarding the minimum number of employees that should be present? If so, how many? Please share.
Thanks in advance.

Minimum Number of Employees for Trade Union Registration
The minimum number of employees required to register a trade union is seven. At the same time, the Trade Union Act stipulates that at least 10 percent of the total workers or 100 workers, whichever is less, should be persons employed in the establishment. This implies that if the number of employees is less than seven, they cannot register a union.
For example, if you have 100 employees, then at least 10 persons should be members of the union. If you have 1,500 employees, a trade union can be registered with 100 employees, for which 150 workers (10% of 1,500) are not required.
