EU Charter of Fundamental Rights

Член 16 - Свобода на стопанската инициатива

Член 16 - Свобода на стопанската инициатива

Свободата на стопанската инициатива се признава в съответствие с правото на Съюза и с националните законодателства и практики.

    • Text:

      Този член се основава на практиката на Съда, който е признал свободата да се упражнява икономическа или търговска дейност (вж. Решение от 14 май 1974 г. по Дело 4/73 Nold, ССП 1974, стр. 491, точка 14; и Решение от 27 септември 1979 г. по Дело 230/78 SpA Eridania и др, ССП 1979, стр. 2749, точки 20 и 31) и свободата на договаряне (вж., inter alia, Решение по Дело 151/78 Sukkerfabriken Nykoebing, ССП 1979, стр. 1, точка 19; Решение от 5 октомври 1999 г. по Дело C-240/97 Испания с/у Комисията, ССП 1999, стр. I–6571, точка 99 от мотивите), както и на член 119, параграфи 1 и 3 от Договора за функционирането на Европейския съюз, който признава свободната конкуренция. Разбира се, това право се упражнява при зачитане на правото на Съюза и на националните законодателства. То може да бъде предмет на ограниченията, предвидени в член 52, параграф 1 от Хартата.

      Preamble - Explanations relating to the Charter of Fundamental Rights:
      Дадените по-долу разяснения бяха подготвени първоначално под ръководството на президиума на Конвента, който изработи Хартата на основните права на Европейския съюз. Те бяха актуализирани под ръководството на президиума на Европейския конвент в светлината на внесените от този Конвент изменения в текста на Хартата (по-специално в членове 51 и 52), както и на развитието на правото на Съюза. Въпреки че тези разяснения сами по себе си нямат юридическа сила, те представляват ценно средство за тълкуване, което е предназначено да изясни разпоредбите на Хартата.

      Preamble:
      ‘(2) The freedom to provide services includes the right of undertakings to provide services in another Member State, to which they may post their own workers temporarily in order to provide those services there. It is necessary for the purpose of the posting of workers to distinguish this freedom from the free movement of workers, which gives every citizen the right to move freely to another Member State to work and reside there for that purpose and protects them against discrimination as regards employment, remuneration and other conditions of work and employment in comparison to nationals of that Member State.‘

    • Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, General comment No. 24 (2017) on State obligations under the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in the context of business activities

      ‘4. In certain jurisdictions, individuals enjoy direct recourse against business entities for violations of economic, social and cultural rights, whether in order to impose on such private entities (negative) duties to refrain from certain courses of conduct or to impose (positive) duties to adopt certain measures or to contribute to the fulfilment of such rights.16 There are also a large number of domestic laws designed to protect specific economic, social and cultural rights, that apply directly to business entities, such as in the areas of non-discrimination, health-care provision, education, the environment, employment relations and consumer safety.
      5. In addition, under international standards, business entities are expected to respect Covenant rights regardless of whether domestic laws exist or are fully enforced in practice.17 The present general comment therefore also seeks to assist the corporate sector in discharging their human rights obligations and assuming their responsibilities, thus mitigating any reputational risks that may be associated with violations of Covenant rights within their sphere of influence.‘
