Article 125 of Private Sector Labour Law

Either party to the dispute may—if direct negotiation does not lead to its resolution—submit an application to the competent Ministry for an amicable settlement of the dispute through the Conciliation Committee for Collective Labour Disputes, which shall be formed by a decision issued by the Minister. The application must be signed by the employer or his authorized agent, or by the majority of the workers involved in the dispute or whomever they authorize to represent them.
