Abstract The paper focuses on the very topical issue of conclusion of the membership of the State, namely the United Kingdom, in European integration structures. The ques­tion of termination of membership in European Communities and European Union has not been tackled for a long time in the sources of European law. With the adop­tion of the Treaty of Lisbon (2009), the institute of 'unilateral' withdrawal was intro­duced. It´s worth to say that exit clause was intended as symbolic in its nature, in fact underlining the status of Member States as sovereign entities. That is why this institute is very general and the legal regulation of the exercise of withdrawal contains many gaps. One of them is a question of absolute or relative nature of exiting from integration structures. Today’s “exit clause” (Art. 50 of Treaty on European Union) regulates only the termination of membership in the European Union and is silent on the impact of such a step on membership in the European Atomic Energy Community. The presented paper offers an analysis of different variations of the interpretation and solution of the problem. It´s based on the independent solution thesis and therefore rejects an automa­tism approach. The paper and topic is important and original especially because in the multitude of scholarly writings devoted to Brexit questions, vast majority of them deals with institutional questions, the interpretation of Art. 50 of Treaty on European Union; the constitutional matters at national UK level; future relation between EU and UK and political bargaining behind such as all that. The question of impact on withdrawal on Euratom membership is somehow underrepresented. Present paper attempts to fill this gap and accelerate the scholarly debate on this matter globally, because all consequences of Brexit already have and will definitely give rise to more world-wide effects.

Abstract The contribution deals with the Slovak and the EU legal regulation of tobacco and tobacco products. Its primary purpose is to point out the Slovak and European legal acts which constitute the main regulatory instruments in this field using the method of analysis and synthesis. Rules of production, distribution and conditions of use of tobacco and products thereof are in the Slovak Republic contained mainly in two acts - the Act No 335/2011 Coll. on Tobacco Products and the Act No 377/2004 Coll. on the Protection of Non-smokers, as well as in special Decree No 212/2012 Coll., regulating tobacco products. Regulation of excise duty on tobacco products can be found in the Act with the same name - Act No 106/2004 Coll.. Another objective of the paper is also to draw attention to the amendment of Act on Protection of Non-smokers which entered into force on 1 July 2013. The European Union struggles with the negative consequences of smoking at the supranacional level and its institutions - the European Commission, the European Parliament and the Council of the EU - are already for several years adopting legal acts to facilitate uniformity and easier interpretation of European law also in the field of legal regulation of tobacco and tobacco products. The predominant part of the existing legislation deals with the approximation of laws in areas that are closely related to the manufacture, presentation and sale of tobacco products, but also to the collection of taxes from these products.

Problem setting. On-call work is today a poorly-investigated by science of labor law form of non-standard employment. Since 2019, there are several draft laws developed in Ukraine that deal with on-call work. These drafts describe it such as employment contract with non-fixing working hour. The latest draft No. 5161 of 25.02.2021 "On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of Ukraine on the regulation of some non-standard forms of employment" has been submitted to Parliament. This bill was developed according to the Directive (EU) 2019/1152 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2019 on transparent and predictable working conditions in the European Union. However, we believe some provisions of this bill on the establishment of working time need further adaptation. Analysis of resent researches and publications. The issue of legal regulation of non-standard employment has been analysed by V.Venedidikov, N. Vyshnevska, I. Gorgoriev, I. Kiselev, A. Lushnikov, D. Morozov, O. Mozna, N. Nikitina, O. Process, O. Rimkevich, V. Soyfer, M. Sorokishin, O. Yaroshenko. On-call work was the subject of doctor’s and candidate’s thesis of V. Gnidenko, O. Korkin, O.Pilipko, M. Shabanova. At the same time a number of legal problems were arised after the project No. 5161 had been adopted. For instance, peculiarities of the establishment of working time, the legal regulation of new legal categories in an employment contract with non-fixed working time need further adaptation. Аrticle’s main body. In the employment contract with non-fixing working hour the maximum working hours of the employee is determined, fixed in the contract, however the minimum working time is not defined due to the fact that the employer does not have a duty to provide employee work. The minimum duration of working time defined in the draft law depends only on the amount of the wage or compensation for staying in a state of waiting. In order to strengthen the coherence of terminology and better reconcile the typology and character of this non-standard employment form with the provisions of Directive (EU) 2019/1152, the draft law should enter and (or) determine the terms, such as a schedule of work, basic hours and days, mode of operation. Conclusions and prospects for the development. In the contract with non-fixed working hours, the installation and distribution of working time has specific features: maximum duration of the employee's working time is determined, fixed in the contract, and the minimum working time is not determined at all, since the employer does not have a duty in the employer to provide employee work. The minimum duration of working time defined in the draft law depends only on the amount of the wage or compensation for staying in a state of waiting. In such an employment contract basic days and hours should be establishes, that is, a time interval when an employee must perform its labor duties in case of a demand. The employee's calling on work, in turn, must be carried out by the employer in compliance with the conditions established in the contract itself (for example, the method and minimum term of the employee's notice of the start of work). The mode of operation is predictive to the employee, the one can predict "theoretically" that he can be called on in certain days and hours. The schedule of work with each call on work is really unpredictable. This schedule should be agreed between the employee and the employer before the work is started, although we believe such agree does not matter because the schedule is made within the basic days and hours that are already known to the employee.
