The analysis of certain points of the criminal legislation of the foreign countries, which provide protection of labour rights, freedoms and social interests, is made in the paper with the help of comparative legal analysis. Despite the quite wide legal regulation of labour relations in all countries in the world, the special criminal law protection of labour rights has remained a feature of "eastern" countries of the continental family of law mainly, the so-called post-socialist family of law. The analysis of criminal legislation of foreign countries regarding criminalization of the violation of labour rights of a person is conducted in the paper. Comparative-legal analysis allows defining general approaches to formation of labour rights of employees, including in the sphere of contractual relationship. The most similar and corresponding to the national criminal legislature are the Criminal codes of Spain an Polish Republic, which establish criminal liability for violation of not only labour legislation in force, but also conditions of individual labour acts (agreements, contracts etc.). It is stated in the text that the protection of labour rights in the modern legislation of foreign countries often has fragmentary, unsystematic nature. The violation of labour safety rules is most often regulated in the criminal legislation of foreign countries. Other types of violation of the labour legislation are regulated with arbitration under administrative or civil legislation. The drawbacks of the fatherland`s legislation are mentioned and the main positive improvements in this sphere after adoption of the Criminal Code of Ukraine in 2001 are emphasized. It was made the conclusion that the list of crimes against labour rights, which are provided by modern criminal legislations, is strong enough and has specific features. The list mentioned above could be the target for improving Ukrainian criminal legislation in certain cases. Therewith it is important to remember that formation of the legislation in the sphere of the protection of labour rights, freedoms and social interests directly depends on the development of the regulatory legislation. It is the clarity and certainty of blanket norms that will become the fundamental basis for the formation of effective criminal law protection of labour rights, freedoms and interests.

The category of criminal law impact is currently being actively studied in the domestic legal science for the relationship with the content of the categories of criminal punishment, other measures of a criminal law nature, criminal liability. In the presented study, the problem of determining the types of criminal law influence and the peculiarities of their implementation, depending on the presence or absence of certain legally significant features, is posed. Given the stated problems, the subject of the study is determined in the form of criminal law norms that enshrine deprivation and legal restrictions that apply to persons who have committed a socially dangerous act prohibited by criminal law. The application in the process of research of a combination of general scientific and private scientific methods allowed us to formulate the final conclusion that the criminal legal effect is realized as a result of the application of criminal liability measures and other measures of a criminal legal nature. Criminal liability is realized on general and preferential terms. The basis for the use of the latter is the fact of positive post-criminal behavior, which significantly reduces the social danger of the perpetrator.

The purpose of the article is to study the main problematic aspects of the regulation of liability for sabotage in the legislation of Ukraine. The subject of the research is the problematic aspects of the regulation of criminal liability for sabotage under the laws of Ukraine. In order to obtain reliable results, a number of methods are applied: dialectical, formal-logical, hermeneutic, logical-semantic, statistical, comparative-legal, etc. The results of the conducted research: modern threats to the national security of any state require effective measures of counteraction, including the qualitative criminal legislation. The main shortcomings of the regulation of liability for sabotage under the laws of Ukraine are due to the imperfection of the components of this criminal offense, as well as the misinterpretation of its provisions by the enforcer. In addition, it is determined that one of the important problems of liability for such action is the parallel existence of a terrorist act in the criminal legislation of Ukraine, and the components of a terrorist act by its content and nature in most cases coincides with the components of sabotage. A number of changes and additions to the criminal legislation of Ukraine on elimination of the specified problems are proposed.

The purpose of the study is a comprehensive analysis of the issues of the application of criminal liability as a means of countering violations of sanitary and epidemiological rules in a pandemic. The main idea of the study: the validity and expediency of amending the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation establishing punishment for violation of sanitary and epidemiological rules and criminalization of the spread of an infectious disease. A methodological toolkit is a set of methods, means and techniques with the help of which the criminalization of violations of sanitary and epidemiological rules in a pandemic is substantiated. The following methods were used in the work: hypothetical-deductive; dogmatic (formal legal analysis); description; comparative. The result of the work is the provision that in a pandemic, a necessary condition for ensuring national security seems appropriate to criminalize the spread of infectious diseases that pose a danger to others, which will make it possible to prosecute people who, deliberately or through negligence, have committed infecting a disease included in the category of dangerous to others. These recommendations are due to the noted problems in science and practice, including the results of comparative legal analysis. The novelty of the research lies in the substantiation of amending the criminal legislation of the Russian Federation by federal law. The amendments introduce stricter types of punishments, establish responsibility for the threat of a mass disease or people intoxication, and additions have been made in the form of a third part which provides for liability for violation of sanitary standards that inadvertently entailed the death of two or more people. The peculiarities of bringing to criminal responsibility for similar acts in certain foreign countries are also considered. There is a tendency to classify such crimes as terrorism-related.
