The driver of the transition to telecommuting was the COVID-19 pandemic; the urgency of distancing resulted in an increase in professional risks, a decrease in the quality of work and life of teachers. A survey was carried out of 436 respondents from 22 constituent entities of the Russian Federation in order to develop proposals for improving the legislation and organizing the protection of the health of teachers on the basis of studying their opinions. The data obtained by the authors confirm the hypothesis put forward by them about the insufficiency of legal regulation of remote work and the protection of workers' health, the unpreparedness of workers to self-regulation of the quality of work. It leads to the conclusions about the need to strengthen the role of the state in the regulation of teachers work and to ensure the protective function of labor law in terms of protecting the health of teleworkers, as well as a qualitative change in the normative regulation of preventive medical examinations of teachers.

The quality of work life activities which exist in a sample of knitwear companies in Southwestern Ontario were described. Three levels of activity were identified: (1) active companies were largely non-unionized, with high annual sales, high levels of technology and an articulated corporate responsibility toward employees; (2) midrange companies were privately owned, unionized, with a medium level of technology; and (3) inactive companies were young, privately-owned companies with low technology levels and were attempting to establish corporate stability. Employees of midrange companies were more satisfied with “working conditions”, “social integration”, “constitutionalism” and “work and life components than were employees of the active companies. The discrepancy theory of satisfaction was used to explain this result.

AbstractIn this chapter the practice of complying with pollution regulations at sea is examined in relation to how work on board ships is affected. The central argument made is that while seafarers mostly perceive pro-environmental practices as morally correct and therefore worthwhile, a number of them believe that being ‘green’ makes great demands on their time and upon the quality of work and life on board the ship.

From the result of the bibliometric analysis, it can be concluded that payroll systems patent developments are increasing, while publication of payroll empirical studies are quite low in number. Consequently, apart from uncovers innovation and commercialization efforts of payroll systems, this paper proposes that more empirical studies are needed in the area.

The term “market of audit services” or “audit market” is often used in course of legislative work, scientific discussions or professional communications. But the semantic meaning of this term is interpreted differently, giving rise to misunderstanding among the discussion participants as well as the broader public. Given the permanent market reforms implemented in Ukraine, the treatment of audit as a market of professional services needs to be in a way clarified.  This article is devoted to the criteria by which the audit is recognized in Ukraine as a market of professional services. It covers essential issues such as pricing of audit works and services, market entry for new auditors, self-regulation of the profession, quality of audit services.   Problems of the Ukrainian audit are critically addressed by the author in the context of the requirements of the International Standards of Auditing and the foundations of the Law of Ukraine “On Audit of Financial Reporting and Audit Activities”. It is stated that the contemporary Ukrainian audit is differentiated into the two unequal groups: the so called large business entities in audit and the other business entities in audit. This differentiation is accompanied by attempts of the former group to monopolize the market of professional services and price dumping by the latter group. One of the key author’s arguments is the illusiveness of the quality of audit in Ukraine, first and foremost the existing system of audit control. According to the author, this can bring to naught all the novelties of legal regulation of audit in Ukraine.      Apart from the statements of facts, the article contains concrete, although polemic, propositions of the author concerning implementation of the new Law of Ukraine “On Audit of Financial Reporting and Audit Activities”.
