This study aims to examine the constitutional and international law dimensions of the right to work, a fundamental right considered perhaps the most universal among social and economic human rights. It does so, on the one hand, by reviewing the constitutional and international legal framework surrounding this right and identifying their common and divergent features. On the other hand, through an analysis of the case-law of the Constitutional Court and the ECtHR, it highlights specific entitlements within the right to work that illustrate the constitutionalization and internationalization of labour law. By doing so, the study also aims to shed light on the significant role of both the Constitutional Court and the ECtHR in harmonizing national and international legal standards and integrating the right to work into the broader human rights protection framework.
