Disciplinary Liability for Violation of Labor Legislation: the Context of Realization of the Right to Labour

Abstract

The article substantiates the expediency of classifying labor law violations that are not crimes or misdemeanors of officials and employees in the field of public administration, to disciplinary offenses entailing non-material and material disciplinary liability, which must be provided for in the future Labor Code of Ukraine. This position is primarily due to the fact that a citizen (employee), being a general subject of a labor offense (as opposed to an employer as its special subject), is not endowed with official powers in public administration and cannot bear administrative (managerial) responsibility for committing an offense as detailed in the article.
