According to the report, on July 19, 2022, the Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of Ukraine Regarding the Optimization of Labor Relations” came into force. The changes made suggest that labor inspectors can inspect employers during martial law..

In particular, they will check for:.

compliance with the requirements of the Law of Ukraine \;

legality of termination of employment contracts;

identification of unregistered labor relations.

The department notes that since the beginning of the war, they have received thousands of appeals from citizens regarding the violation of their labor rights..

Most often, employees apply for remuneration, illegal dismissal or suspension of an employment contract, forced leave without pay, etc..

During the military period, remote consulting was introduced for both employers and employees through the “interactive inspector” service.. But not in all cases, employers listen to advice and clarifications.. It is in such cases that inspectors must respond to every violation..
