Abstract

The subject of the research is the prosecutor's protection of the labor rights of minors. The authors of the article investigate not only the features of prosecutorial supervision over the observance of labor rights of citizens under the age of 18, but also analyze other types of prosecutorial activities in this area. The paper pays attention to the specifics and legal grounds for the participation of prosecutors in the consideration of labor disputes by the courts. Proposals have been formulated on the specifics of the implementation of legal education by prosecutors among employers, as well as underage workers. In order to distinguish between the subject of prosecutorial supervision and the competence of state control bodies in the studied area, the issues that are subject to verification by the prosecutor are reflected, and the limits of prosecutorial activity are outlined. In the course of the study, the authors applied the method of statistical analysis of data on the number of violations of the labor rights of minors identified by prosecutors. Comparing this information with data on the number of claims filed by prosecutors allowed us to establish that the number of cases of prosecutors send to courts is relatively small. The scientific novelty of the research lies in the systematization of knowledge about the role of the prosecutor in protecting the labor rights of minors. The paper also formulated separate proposals for improving this type of prosecutorial activity. In particular, a legal justification has been developed for the prosecutor's right to bring the cases to court in order to protect the labor rights of a minor employee, even in cases where the minor himself does not want to file a written application with the prosecutor's office, but the violation of his labor rights is significant. In addition, the research contains proposals to tighten administrative responsibility for violations of the labor rights of minors.
