The basis of organization of the remuneration in Ukraine is the tariff system that is the set of standards regulating and differentiating the employees’ salary, depending on the complexity of the work (employees’ skills), on the characteristics and importance of certain types of productions, on the categories of employees involved in production process and on the working conditions.
Conclusions and prospects for the development. The Cabinet of Ministers should develop and adopt unified tariff scale of categories and coefficients for employees to streamline the remuneration of all employees and to create the mechanism of optimal inter-industry and inter-jobs relations in the remuneration field. Such tariff scale should be extended to all employers regardless of ownership form and organizational-legal form. It will help to ensure the realization of the right to just remuneration by the differentiating of salary depending on the complexity of work, on the characteristics and importance of certain types of productions, on the categories of employees and on the working conditions.
