The unprecedented situation in 2020 put employers in a state of uncertainty and challenged them to find new forms of work, maintain employment relationships, ensure a safe working environment and working conditions, and at the same time comply with regulatory requirements. In this context, labor legislation has had to be adapted to the new circumstances in which the elements of the employment relationship have acquired "extraordinary" aspects. The purpose of this report is to review new aspects of labor relations in a pandemic environment, discussing regulatory changes, their consequences and opportunities.

The subject. The article deals with topical issues of ensuring the realization of the employee's right to healthy and safe working conditions.The purpose of the study is to identify the main directions of improvement of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation in the field of labor protection.The methodology includes formal-legal method, the analysis of the components of the right to healthy and safe working conditions, as well as the right to information and related rights.The main results. The author formulates proposals for amending a number of articles of the Labor Code, including those containing the most important branch principles, as well as those on termination of the employment contract and ensuring the right of an employee to a workplace that meets the requirements of labor protection.Examples from judicial practice show a low level of legal awareness of Russian employers and their disdainful attitude to labor legislation. This is expressed not only in violation of labor protection rules, but also in the absence of proper registration of an employee, when a written labor contract is not concluded with him. Thus, the relationship between the norms of different labor law institutions is expressed, expressed in their protective potential. The existing approach to understanding labor protection in a broad sense to a certain extent may be in demand even now. For example, by improving the norms on the conclu-sion, modification and termination of an employment contract, it is possible to achieve in parallel a certain improvement in working conditions for workers. This is due to the fact that legal registration of employment in most cases is associated with a higher level of security, since an employee without clearance does not actually exist for the state control and supervisory bodies.Conclusions. Understanding of labor protection as all-round protection of labor capacity of the person, being so widespread in Soviet time, looks quite justified nowadays too. The Labor Code of the Russian Federation, as the central regulatory legal act, should be considered as an instrument not only of legal regulation, but also of a powerful ideological impact on domestic employers, and changes and additions to labor legislation concerning labor protection should be made according to above-mentioned conclusion.

The article analyzes the confictological aspects in labor activities of teachers of additional education. The authors consider peculiarities of conflicts related to labor relations, working conditions. Further education organizations have features that distinguish them from schools and pre-school education institutions. The children's and youth centers are customer-oriented and more responsive to the pupil’s preferences. The study of labor conflicts is therefore relevant to additional education for children. Conflicts in education are well studied in terms of teacher-pupil relations. However, the employment relationship in education has features related to scheduling, feedback, motivation and stimulation. Survey and testing based on the methods of K. Thomas and R. Kilmann, and C. Spielberger (Yu. L. Khanina) and interviews with the staff of the center showed possible sources of conflicts in the process of organizing education in the children and youth center. Pay dissatisfaction, inadequate feedback, and off-schedule activities create internal tensions among employees. Pay dissatisfaction, inadequate feedback, and off-schedule activities create internal tensions among employees. Compromise and adaptation are the prevalent employee tactics. At the same time, some employees have high levels of anxiety. Thus, potential conflict situations develop in the team. Hidden conflicts can help reduce teacher loyalty to the organization. Based on the results of the study, the authors offer some recommendations for the diagnosis and prevention of conflicts in children's centers of further education

<p><span>As reformas recentes na legislação trabalhista de Brasil e França abriram uma porta para a comparação.

Embora Brasil e França ocupem lugares muito distintos na divisão internacional do trabalho, e sofram pressões competitivas também distintas, os motivos alegados pelos reformadores dos dois lados são espantosamente semelhantes. Modernização das relações de trabalho, geração de empregos (e combate ao desemprego), crescimento econômico, melhoria da renda dos trabalhadores e das condições de trabalho. Mas a promessa de segurança socioeconômica vem acompanhada de formas de regulação que geram, na verdade, insegurança no emprego, na renda e nos direitos trabalhistas.

This article sets out the legislative framework with regard to labour law provisions concerning working conditions that apply to Dutch employers and employees operating and working in the ready-made garment (RMG) sector in the Netherlands and discusses the challenges that employees may face in the sector. More specifically, this article will focus on the challenges and law applicable to the retail phase and recycling phase in the supply chain of a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt. In this respect, an overview of the labour law provisions will be presented that protect a safe working environment for employees working in the sector. Dutch law contains many provisions concerning the protection of employees against poor working conditions. Among others, employers are obliged to maintain a safe working environment and reasonable working hours for their employees. Dutch labour legislation only applies to employees working in the Netherlands and therefore is of little relevance to the manufacturing phase of the RMG supply chain, which takes place abroad. However, several public and private initiatives were taken to stimulate Dutch clothing brands to exert an influence on the working conditions in the RMG producing countries. Two of these initiatives will be discussed in this article. Furthermore, this article will present which social challenges employees may face in the Dutch RMG sector, which comprise gender inequality, including equal pay and equal opportunities to occupy top management positions and co-determination rights.

Introduction. The current historical period is characterized by significant transformations in all spheres of life activity. The reasons for the changes are the development of information technologies and globalization processes. In the information (post-industrial) society, transformations are associated with the introduction of the principles of flexibility in job placement and labor organization. The transition to flexible forms of employment appears as a risk factor for the deterioration of working conditions and the reduction of workers’ security. “Social pollution” of the production environment is spreading. These include management methods that harm the well-being of workers.The aim of the study is the evaluation of the influence of flexibilities of employment and labor relations on the deterioration of working conditions as a risk factor for the well-being of workers.Material and methods. The study object in the article is flexibility as a socio-psychological and organizational-economic phenomenon. A comparative analysis of the views of various authors and their theoretical generalization.Results. A modern understanding of the information society as a society of network structures based on innovation and decentralization, as well as employment on adaptability to market conditions is presented. The introduction of the flexibility of employment means a departure from the standard model of labor relations. The negative consequences of labor flexibility for workers are given: instability, compulsion, unsteadiness, and lack of guarantees. Employment unsteadiness occurs both in the informal and formal sectors of the economy. The statistics cited indicate a trend towards an increase in the proportion of workers included in unsustainable and precarious employment. The influence of “social pollution” of the intra-organizational environment in the form of adverse management decisions introducing instability and unreliability in working conditions is considered. Their consequence is a violation of the social and psychological well-being and somatic health of workers. Conclusion. The more employment differs from the standard, the higher its instability, and lack of guarantees for the worker, the higher the risks of deterioration of working conditions, health, and job loss. There is a connection between the instability of employment, psychological well-being, and health.

The authors have studied the norms of the draft Law of Ukraine “On Amending the Labor Code of Ukraine to Define the Concept of Labor Relations and Features of Their Existence” dated from February 9, 2021 No. 5054. The scholars’ points of view on understanding the competence of labor legislation, concepts and features of labor relations have been studied. The authors have determined the expediency of introducing the norms suggested by the draft Law for inclusion in the Labor Code of Ukraine in relation to the competence of labor legislation, concepts and features of labor relations. Recommendations for solving the identified problems have been formulated. It has been offered to reflect the main features of labor relations in the concept of “labor relations” contained in Part 1 of the Art. 21 of the Labor Code of Ukraine provided by the draft Law, as well as to introduce a norm in the Art. 21-2 of the Labor Code of Ukraine of the following wording: “Work may be recognized as being performed within the employment relationship, if there are basic features of the employment relationship”. The main features of labor relations are as follows: 1) personal nature. Personal performance of work by an employee on a specific qualification, profession, position; 2) paid nature. Systematic payment of the salary for the performed works by an employer to an employee; 3) the nature of subordination to an employer. Work is performed by an employee on behalf of, under the guidance and control of an employer. The authors have suggested own definition of the term of “labor relations”, which is understood as a voluntary two-way communication between an employee and an employer, which involves personal performance of the work by an employee defined and paid by an employer under his guidance and control. The authors have developed own edition of the Art. 3 of the Labor Code of Ukraine; and have improved the provisions of the draft Law of Ukraine “On Amending the Labor Code of Ukraine to Define the Concept of Labor Relations and Features of Their Existence”.
