Article’s main body. The most of the EU documents and directives enshrining the right to labor adopted long time ago. Ukrainian legislation, including labor laws of Ukraine, strives for them. In contrast to national law, that is relatively mobile, regulation by directives is a complex and lengthy process. Currently the issue of codification of labor legislation of Ukraine acutely rose. The provisions of the new draft Labor Code does not fully comply with international norms and standards and contain a number of gaps and contradictions.

And now they need a new vision n terms of the criteria of necessity, reasonableness and expediency, and mostly, taking into account the conditions of European integration of Ukraine into the European Union and its legislation.
