КОНСТИТУЦІЙНЕ ПРАВО ЛЮДИНИ НА ПРАЦЮ: ПРОБЛЕМНІ АСПЕКТИ ПРАЦЕВЛАШТУВАННЯ МОЛОДІ

Abstract

The article is devoted to the legal nature of the right to work as one of the most important human rights. The legislative definition and realization of the right of youth to the first job in Ukraine is analyzed. The analysis of the youth segment of the labor market in Ukraine is quite disappointing: it is difficult for graduates of higher education institutions to find their first job without work experience, which leads to the fact that almost half of young professionals do not work in their specialty. Moreover, the analysis of the current labor legislation and the legislation regulating the legal status of youth in Ukraine allows us to conclude that today the country does not have a single system of regulations that does not allow for effective youth employment. The number of programs, decrees, resolutions, and separate laws on youth policy adopted in recent years does not significantly affect the legal status of young people. As a result, there is no mechanism for implementing a number of labor standards, especially in the field of youth employment. According to the authors, it is advisable to introduce innovations designed to help overcome a number of existing problems in the field of youth employment, namely the creation of an effective policy to support young people in finding their first job by the state and ensuring communication between higher education institutions and employers. In order to ensure effective employment of young people it is necessary to form a package of laws and regulations that provide training for workers and professionals in accordance with the needs of the workforce, their guaranteed employment, maintaining the first job for at least two years, creating favorable conditions for selfemployment. in the form of entrepreneurship, creativity, provision of services. The authors draw attention to the fact that today in Ukraine the issue of creative employment of children, which has recently become more and more popular, has not been settled. The article also analyzes the gaps in the legislation on the issue raised in the topic of work, in particular, proposed amendments to certain articles of the Labor Code of Ukraine; proposed proposals to improve the legal framework of Ukraine to improve the situation with the first job in Ukraine.
