The article contains an analysis of the essence of labor discipline. The theoretical approaches to its understanding are considered. The article substantiates expediency to use in the concept of labor discipline definition purely legal categories. It is also emphasized on negative attributes and contradictions in the Labor Code of Ukraine and the Disciplinary Statute of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The article proposes the author's definition of labor discipline. It is proposed to consider a service offense as the basis for disciplinary liability. At the same time the essence of disciplinary liability is characterized. The peculiarities of labor relations in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic include the following: a) legal gaps in the regulation of labor relations in the aspect of ensuring self-isolation of workers who had contact with COVID-19 confirmed patients; b) concealment by employees the facts of coronavirus disease (personal or family members); c) legal uncertainty regarding the evasion of workers in the presence of reliable information about the possibility of infection with COVID-19 from medical examination and testing; d) problems in understanding the legality of the refusal from vaccination of those employees, whose activity involves active social contacts. It has been found that deliberately placing others at risk of contracting COVID-19 while a person is on duty constitutes improper performance of their duties and may lead to disciplinary liability. Such a disciplinary offense carries signs of guilt and danger and constitutes a deliberate violation of established restrictions.

The Public Prosecutor's Office in Ukraine plays a major role in the protection of human rights and freedom, of general interests of the society and the country, and in the strengthening of law and order, thus facilitating the establishment and development of the democratic constitutional state. The effectiveness of performing the duties put onto the prosecution of Ukraine is directly dependent on the prosecutor's offices' employees that are empowered to fulfill their professional responsibilities. The legal status of an employee of a prosecutor's office is specified in the Law of Ukraine “On Public Prosecutor’s Office”. Although, some aspects of these employees' work activity are normalised in the general labor law. This expresses the principle of unity and differentiation of the legal regulation of prosecutor's office's employee's labor relations. This article researches theoretical approaches to the definition of the concepts "unity" and "differentiation". The unity of the legal regulation of labor relations is manifested in the legally established equality of all employees. Differentiation is not opposed to the principle of unity, but takes into account the characteristics of different categories of workers and working conditions to ensure equality. The relationship between the general labor law and the special law on the prosecutor's office regarding the adjustment of the labor rights of the employees of Ukraine's prosecutor's offices had been analysed. The key to effective legal regulation of labor rights of employees of the prosecutor's office of Ukraine is compliance with unity and differentiation. It had been determined that the differentiation of the legal regulation of prosecutor's office's employee's labor rights determines the mandatory and priority application of the special legislation norms. In turn, the unity of the legal regulation of prosecutor's office's employee's labor rights determines the subsidiary usage of labor legislation norms in cases of an employee's individual labor rights not being determined in the special law on Public Prosecutor's Office. Unification of labor law norms governing the labor activity of this category of workers will make it possible to achieve an optimal balance of unity and differentiation.

Introduction. Physical training is the most important element of the combat readiness of the troops, its goals and objectives are defined by the Manual on Physical Training in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The solution of these tasks should contribute to the formation of military personnel's readiness to endure extreme physical and mental stress during the preparation and conduct of combat operations. Comprehensive provision of physical training in the troops requires the hard work of various services, including the medical service.The purpose of the study. Identify problematic issues of medical support for physical training and sports events in the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and identify ways to solve them.Materials and methods. The article uses the materials of the work of medical and nursing teams in the medical provision of physical training of units of the Southern Military District from 2016 to 2019. Additionally, the data of an in-depth medical examination of the personnel of some units of the district subordination for 2018 were used.Results and discussion. When analyzing the work of visiting medical and nursing teams during the medical support of passing the standards for physical training, a number of problematic issues were identified. First, there are always military personnel who regularly do not engage in physical training and during the delivery of standards make excessive efforts and work at the limit of their capabilities. Secondly, some exercises are very dangerous, either in terms of injuries or the likelihood of developing complications from the cardiovascular system. All this applies to the medical support of the competition. As an example, the championship of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in fire and rescue sports, held from 3 to 6 September 2019 in Rostov-on-Don on the territory of the garrison fire brigade, is given. The program of the competition included passing the obstacle course, climbing the training tower, extinguishing the fire, etc., all very traumatic. Therefore, for the medical support of these competitions, a medical and nursing team of the resuscitation profile was allocated on a reanimobile with specialized stowage, respiratory and oxygen equipment.Conclusion. It is necessary to strictly monitor the correctness of the definition of the group of physical training and the gradual increase in physical activity in order to avoid complications and further progression of diseases or even deaths in military personnel. It is impossible to approach formally the conduct of an in-depth medical examination of military personnel.

The article forms theoretical approaches to the essence of competitiveness of employees in the sphere of trade services. The interpretation of the concept of "competition" suggested by many foreign and Ukrainian scientists are organized according to three approaches: functional-purpose oriented, behavioral and structural-logical. These approaches to the interpretation of competition can be used in studies of competitive relationships on the market, and their choice directly depends on the goals and objectives of the analysis. The interpretation of the essence of competition suggested by representatives of the Ukrainian scientific school of competitiveness in the field of labor has some differences. Theoretical approaches to defining the concept of "competitiveness of employees" are generalized. The paper determines that the peculiarities of approaches to understanding the competition of employees are related to the fact that people, carriers of a certain labor potential with inherent characteristics of the level of knowledge, skills, experience, work ability, mobility, activity and more rather than products and services are the object of economic competition in the labor market in the system of social and labor relations. The author suggests his definition of competition of trade services employees as their competition for obtaining and reproducing the best working conditions in the interests of realizing labor potential in the process of customer service and obtaining socio-economic and moral satisfaction from their work, development of competences (knowledge, skills). The article proves that formation and maintenance of competitiveness of employees requires complex scientific research, development and implementation of consistent public socio-economic policy, investing in continuous educational and professional development with the participation of social partners.

У  статті  висвітлено  методологічні  та  практичні  засади  вивчення  онтогенезу  соціального  інтелекту. Складність вивчення даного соціально-психологічного феномену пов’язана із дотичністю його  до багатьох явищ, які описують умови успішності соціальної взаємодії особистості. Проаналізовано наявні  теоретичні   підходи   до   визначення   змісту   та   структури  соціального  інтелекту,   до   взаємозв’язку  останнього  з  іншими  видами  інтелекту.  Визначено,  що  дослідження  соціального  інтелекту  молодших  школярів слід здійснювати на основі розуміння останнього як здатності, що виникає на базі комплексу  інтелектуальних,   особистісних,   комунікативних   і   поведінкових   рис,   що   зумовлюють   прогнозування  розвитку  міжособистісних  ситуацій,  інтерпретацію  інформації  і  поведінки,  готовність  до  соціальної  взаємодії і прийняття рішень. Здійснене пілотажне емпіричне дослідження прогностичних можливостей  дітей  молодшого  шкільного  віку  продемонструвало  наявні  позитивні  кореляційні  зв’язки  між  рівнем  розвитку здатності до передбачення найбільш адекватного сценарію розвитку подій у соціальній ситуації  та рівнем розвитку мовленнєвого досвіду. Найбільш тісний взаємозв’язок виявлено між рівнем розвитку  здатності  передбачати  адекватну  вербальну  відповідь  у  ситуації  комунікації  та  рівнем  розвитку  мовленнєвої компетентності та мовленнєвої діяльності дітей молодшого шкільного віку. Таким чином,  були зроблені попередні висновки про наявність взаємозв’язку між мовленнєвим досвідом та прогностичним  можливостями у складі соціального інтелекту дитини молодшого шкільного віку The  article  outlines  the  methodological  and  practical  principles  of  studying  the  ontogenesis  of  social  intelligence. The complexity of studying this socio-psychological phenomenon is associated with its attractiveness to  many  phenomena  that  describe  the  conditions  for  the  successful  social  interaction.  The  existing  theoretical  approaches to the definition of the content and structure of social intelligence, to the interrelationship of it with  other types of intelligence are analyzed. It is determined that research of social intelligence of junior pupils should  be carried out on the basis of the understanding of this kind of intelligencer as an ability that based on a complex of  intellectual, personal, communicative and behavioral features. This complex predetermines the forecasting of the  development  of  interpersonal  situations,  the  interpretation  of  information  and  behavior,  readiness  for  social  interaction  and  decision-making.  The  research  of  the  prognostic  possibilities  of  primary  school  children  demonstrated the positive correlation between the level of development of the ability to predict the most adequate  scenario of the development of events in the social situation and the level of development of speech experience. The  closest relationship is found between the level of development of the ability to provide an adequate verbal response  in the context of communication and the level of development of speech competence and speech activity of children  of junior school age. Thus, was done a conclusion about the existence of a relationship between speech experience  and prognostic possibilities in the social intellect of a child of junior school age.

There is an increasing need for quantitative rockfall hazard and risk assessment that requires a precise definition of the terms and concepts used for this particular type of landslide. This paper suggests using terms that appear to be the most logic and explicit as possible and describes methods to derive some of the main hazards and risk descriptors. The terms and concepts presented concern the rockfall process (failure, propagation, fragmentation, modelling) and the hazard and risk descriptors, distinguishing the cases of localized and diffuse hazards. For a localized hazard, the failure probability of the considered rock compartment in a given period of time has to be assessed, and the probability for a given element at risk to be impacted with a given energy must be derived combining the failure probability, the reach probability, and the exposure of the element. For a diffuse hazard that is characterized by a failure frequency, the number of rockfalls reaching the element at risk per unit of time and with a given energy (passage frequency) can be derived. This frequency is relevant for risk assessment when the element at risk can be damaged several times. If it is not replaced, the probability that it is impacted by at least one rockfall is more relevant.

Neonatal hypoglycaemia is a common metabolic disorder presenting in the first days of life and one potentially preventable cause of brain injury. However, a universal approach to diagnosis and management is still lacking. The rapid decrease in blood glucose (BG) after birth triggers homeostatic mechanisms. Most episodes of hypoglycaemia are asymptomatic, and symptoms, when they occur, are nonspecific. Therefore, neonatologists are presented with the challenge of identifying infants at risk who might benefit from a rapid and effective therapy while sparing others unnecessary sampling and overtreatment. There is much controversy regarding the definition of hypoglycaemia, and one level does not fit all infants since postnatal age and clinical situations trigger different accepted thresholds for therapy. The concentration and duration of BG which cause neurological damage are unclear. Recognizing which newborn infants are at risk of hypoglycaemia and establishing protocols for treatment are essential to avoid possible deleterious effects on neurodevelopment. Early breastfeeding may reduce the risk of hypoglycaemia, but in some cases, the amount of breast milk available immediately after birth is insufficient or non-existent. In these situations, other therapeutic alternatives such as oral dextrose gel may lower the risk for NICU admissions. Current guidelines continue to be based on expert opinion and weak evidence. However, malpractice litigation related to neurodevelopmental disorders is frequent in children who suffered hypoglycaemia in the neonatal period even if they had other important factors contributing to the poor outcome. This review is aimed to help the practicing paediatricians and neonatologists to comprehend neonatal hypoglycaemia from physiology to therapy, hoping it will result in a rational decision-making process in an area not sufficiently supported by evidence.

In the context of the reform of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, the issues of recruiting troops with healthy, physically developed and mentally stable young conscripts are of paramount importance. Only citizens "A" - fit for military service and "B" fit for military service with minor restrictions are subject to conscription. When analyzing the results of medical examination of persons of military age, it was found that over the studied period of time, fitness for military service for health reasons decreased by 3.8% (from 78.3% in 2016 to 74.5% in 2020). However, despite the general decrease in fitness for military service, there is an increase in the fitness for military service "A" by 13.5% (from 23.4% in 2016 to 36.9% in 2020). Every year, during the period of work of the draft commissions, a significant number of citizens (more than 10%) were sent for additional examination to medical organizations. As a rule, the examination of conscripts was carried out on an outpatient basis (up to 85%) and much less often in an inpatient setting (up to 15%). The first place was occupied by diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue, which accounted for 24.9%. Mental and behavioral disorders ranked second with an indicator of 18.7%. The third place was taken by diseases of the circulatory system - 14.9%. Diseases of the eye and adnexa ranked fourth - 8.2%. Diseases of the digestive system were less common, accounting for only 4.5%. Thus, in total, the listed diseases accounted for 71.2% and were the main ones in determining the fitness of conscripts for military service for health reasons.

In the context of the reform of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation and a significant increase in the proportion of military personnel doing military service under contract, the issues of manning the troops with healthy, physically developed citizens with high moral and business qualities are of paramount importance. Of particular importance in the selection of candidates for military service under the contract is the conduct of laboratory and instrumental studies, professional and psychological selection, determination of the level of citizens’ physical fitness. The Federal Law «On Military Duty and Military Service» defines a two-stage system for medical examination of citizens entering military service under contract, which is necessary as a barrier in order to prevent citizenswho do not meet the necessary requirements for military personnel from entering the Russian Armed Forces. At the first stage (preliminary examination), the military and medical examination of citizens was carried out by specialist doctors working in medical organizations of the outpatient-polyclinic link of municipalities at the place of citizens’ permanent residence. Medical specialists of the regular military medical commission of the military commissariat of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation participated in the second stage (final examination) of the military medical examination. During the five-year period under study, 5,133 citizens (72.9 %) were selected out of 7,043 candidates for military service under contract, who fully met all the criteria for defenders of the Fatherland.
