Labor unions in Lebanon have been hijacked and paralyzed by the country’s elite. Lebanon’s leading registered union the General Labor Confederation (GLC) has been in a miserable state, with its own members even calling it a “complete failure”. Chaos resulting from the civil war and a corrupt economic and sectarian elite have since turned the GLC into a political tool of their own. On the other hand, the Union Coordination Committee (UCC) has been a movement that has made headlines, notably with last year’s protests for public school teachers’ wages. While it is not a registered union, even members in the GLC have praised it. Georges Hajj, head of the Federation of Bank Employees’ Union within the GLC said that the “UCC is completely independent from any political parties and moreover they really represent employees in the public sector,” further stating that they had a “real cause”.

Like in many other countries with power vacuums, security crises, and poor state infrastructure, NGOs have managed to gain a strong foothold in Lebanon. While the problematic aspects of NGOs are universal, some of its impacts on Lebanese society could be far more damaging than in other places. This is given that Lebanon has no governmental NGO-monitoring body for financial transparency, as well as the reliance on NGOs to replace basic state functions that are either weak or non-existent. This problem also results in poor labor practice, contributing to Lebanon’s existing job crisis. The huge number of NGOs has overshadowed professional syndicates and labor unions in Lebanon, resulting the association of civil society almost exclusively to NGOs, without understanding their limitations, most notably their inability to change bad government policy. With popular movements taking the NGO route to organize, democratic culture is also withering. This looks unsustainable, so when will this massive NGO bubble burst?
