The onset of the information society and the digital economy is a natural stage in the development of any state. Informatization of all spheres of social life actualizes the issues of research of already established social relations and their legal regulation, taking into account a new element — their digital support. Employment relationships, as well as social security relationships, are no exception in terms of digital penetration. Labor legislation and legislation on social security, being independent, are often implemented in a systemic relationship, since they are aimed at ensuring the quality of life of individuals. This relationship affects a variety of aspects: employment, the combination (balance) of work and family responsibilities, as well as private life and health care. This determines the potential for a comprehensive analysis of the labor and social rights of citizens in the context of digitalization. The importance of such studies is all the more obvious because, in the context of the spread of the new coronavirus infection, the restrictions imposed, including social distancing, made it impossible, for many, both to carry out work activities and to apply for and receive social benefits. The preservation of the quality of life of the population of this state largely depends on the extent to which the state’s reaction, expressed externally in the form of adopted regulatory legal acts, corresponds to the current situation and helps to solve emerging problems. This article, based on the comparative method of scientific research, shows the development of remote work in Russia and in foreign countries. The importance of information, information technologies and systems in the field of social security is analyzed. The spread of the new coronavirus infection has affected the whole world, and the experience of legal regulation, developed in states with different levels of development, can, taking into account its interpretation, be applied to a certain extent in Russian conditions. In addition, the article emphasizes that the law of any state should be oriented towards international standards in the relevant area.

Walfare State concept born in the era of the 20th century as a correction of the development of the concept of the country as night watchman, the phenomenon of economic capitalism that gradually leads to lameness in the distribution of sources of prosperity. In the Walfare State concept, the state is required to extend its responsibility to the socio-economic problems facing the people. The functions of the state also include activities that were previously beyond the scope of state functions, such as extending the provision of social services to individuals and families in specific matters, such as social security. The role of the state can not be separated with Welfare State because the state that plays a role in managing the economy which includes the responsibility of the state to ensure the availability of basic welfare services in certain levels. Welfare State does not reject the existence of a capitalist market economy system but believes that there are elements in the public order that are more important than market objectives and can only be achieved by controlling and limiting the operation of such market mechanisms.Keywords: walfare state, country, economic systemKonsep Walfare State yang lahir di era abad ke-20 sebagai koreksi berkembangnya konsep negara sebagai penjaga malam, gejala kapitalisme perekonomian yang secara perlahan-lahan menyebabkan terjadinya kepincangan dalam pembagian sumber-sumber kemakmuran bersarma. Dalam konsep Walfare State, negara dituntut untuk memperluas tanggung jawabnya kepada masalah-masalah sosial ekonomi yang dihadapi rakyat.

Islam is the religion of welfare and well-being of the people as well as reformation and uplift of the society. It not only gives its followers some beliefs and convictions, but it also makes them aware of all those fundamental tenets of life, adopting which, an Islamic state can build a peaceful society. Islam gives due care not only to men but to animals and birds as well. What to speak of services to the helpless, it even regards provisions to hungry and the thirsty animals a great source of salvation in the World Hereafter. Public rights (haquq-ul-Ibaad), personal rights, good morals and generosity are a big part of Islamic commandments. Even the person who does not help others is regarded not a Muslim in the eyes of Islam. Islam makes it obligatory to every Man of Source to be conscious about the rights of other people living around him. An Islamic state consists of both Muslims and non-Muslims alike. Every person, whether he is Muslim or non-Muslim, living in the state, deserves his fundamental rights. Even the state is bound to provide them the basic necessities of life including food, boarding, education, clothing, cure and justice. All this is emphasized in Quran and Hadith. When the Holy Prophet (PBHU) migrated to Madina, he, first of all, laid the foundation of first Islamic state. Having reached there, the first problem he faced was the problem of the housing, food and cure of the migrants (Muhajir), as the migrants had left all their belongings back in Makkah. They had no sources with them in Madina. The Holy Prophet (PBHU) persuaded the locals (Insaar), so that the locals managed for the basic needs of migrants, and thus resolved these issues. The Holy Prophet (PBUH) introduced such a system of assistance that none was helpless in the state.

[Legal regulation is the most coercive and effective behaviour modifying tool in our community. As a general rule, law relates to the areas of human activ- ity which are viewed as important to the human condition. It follows that the content of the law; that is, legal rules and principles, are central to human happiness. This is not controversial. Laws are purposeful. This is a point that has always been recognised implicitly or expressly by law-makers, phi- losophers, lawyers and the community at large. This is reflected in the fact the people evaluate and critique legal standards. There are supposedly `good' laws, `bad' laws and many in the middle. While we all agree that law is purposeful, there has been intense debate over the centuries regarding the appropriate ends of law. Most forcefully it has been argued that the ultimate ends of the law, the benchmark against legal systems and laws should be evaluated, is the notion of justice. Laws are also often benchmarked on the basis of economic criteria. This paper contends that such standards are flawed benchmarks for evaluating the legal system. In the normal scheme of things, law should be evaluated by one criterion: its capacity to promote human well-being (or happiness).

AbstrakNegara kesejahteraan (welfare state) dianggap sebagai jawaban yang paling tepat atas bentuk keterlibatan negara dalam memajukan kesejahteraan rakyat. Keyakinan ini diperkuat oleh munculnya kenyataan empiris mengenai kegagalan pasar (market failure) dan kegagalan negara (state failure) dalam meningkatkan kesejahteraan rakyat. Menurut Goodin (1999; dalam Simarmata, 2008: 19) negara kesejahteraan sering diasosiasikan dengan proses distribusi sumber daya yang ada kepada publik, baik secara tunai maupun dalam bentuk tertentu (cash benefits or benefits in kind). Konsep kesejahteraan juga terkait erat dengan kebijakan sosial-ekonomi yang berupaya untuk mewujudkan kesejahteraan rakyat secara umum. Beberapa bidang yang paling mendesak untuk diperhatikan dalam kebijakan kesejahteraan adalah masalah pendidikan, kesehatan dan penyediaan lapangan kerja. Secara umum suatu negara bisa digolongkan sebagai negara kesejahteraan jika mempunyai empat pilar utamanya, yaitu: (1) social citizenship; (2) full democracy; (3) modern industrial relation systems; dan (4) rights to education and the expansion of modern mass educations systemsKata kunci : negara kesejahteraan, kegagalan pasar, kegagalan negara AbstractWelfare state is considered as the most appropriate response on the form of state involvement in advancing the welfare of the people. This belief was reinforced by the emergence of empirical facts about the failure of the market (market failure) and the failure of the state (state failure) in improving people's welfare. According to Goodin (1999; in Simarmata, 2008: 19) the welfare state is often associated with the distribution of existing resources to the public, either in cash or in the form of certain (cash benefits or benefits in kind). The concept of well-being are closely linked to socio-economic policy of working to realize the people's welfare in general. Some of the most urgent areas for attention in welfare policy is a matter of education, health and employment. In general, a country can be classified as a welfare state if it has four main pillars, namely: (1) social citizenship; (2) full democracy; (3) modern industrial relations systems; and (4) the rights to education and the expansion of modern mass Educations systems.Keywords : market failure, state failure, welfare state

Yaroshenko and other lawyers. Target of research – is to analyze the world experience on the right of persons with family responsibilities to social protection and the possibility of its application in Ukraine. Article’s main body. There is still no single international act that establishes standards for the social protection of persons with family responsibilities. In this regard, we can say that the general principles and characteristics relating to social protection of this category of persons, and adopted in order to achieve the optimal level of order in this area of public relations, are governed by a number of international legal acts enshrining fundamental rights persons in the field of social protection and determine the standards of their implementation, the basics of social protection of motherhood as a state that gives the right to care and assistance from the state and society, as well as the principles of social protection of the family to which necessary protection and assistance so that it can fully commit itself to educating the younger generation. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Summing up the above, it was concluded that the study of international documents allowed to determine the degree of their impact on national legislation and sources of social security law. For Ukraine, bringing national legislation in the field of social protection of persons with family responsibilities in line with international standards in this area is an important and necessary step. Therefore, at the current stage of development for Ukraine, the priority is to create a regulatory framework to protect the rights and freedoms of persons with family responsibilities, which would fully meet international standards and ensure the implementation of these rights and provide a mechanism to protect them in case of violation. As for compliance with international standards today, we can note the following: a) in order to create conditions for regulatory and legal support of state policy regarding persons with family responsibilities in Ukraine adopted a number of regulations; b) to promote the gender interests of working men and women, the current legislation of Ukraine has been streamlined in accordance with the main provisions of the ILO Convention 156 on Equal Treatment and Equal Opportunities for Men and Women Workers: Workers with Family Responsibilities
