Abstract
The situation caused by the spread of COVID-19 has become one of the serious challenges that have manifested themselves, in particular, in the field of legal regulation of social and labor relations, which continues to remain insufficiently studied. This article aims to fill in this lacuna and consider the effectiveness of the main institutions of labor legislation in the event of a coronavirus pandemic. The performed analysis allowed rationalizing a significant addition and clarification of the conceptual apparatus of the labor legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic (KR), which is used in labor regulation under COVID-19 conditions. At the same time, the results show that the lack of a number of basic norms in the legislation, in fact, prevent from establishing the legal status of persons in the labor sphere who are in restrictive/quarantine conditions. An analysis of the basic norms related to the institutions of labor legislation showed a clear insufficiency of their legal capacity to regulate labor relations in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. For the first time, on the basis of the comparative legal method, the problem of establishing new rules outside the labor legislation in Russia and Kyrgyzstan was identified, when the regulation of labor and relations directly related to them in both countries in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic moved to the sectoral (departmental) and local levels, including through acts of application of law (in Kyrgyzstan). Everywhere during the pandemic, employers in both countries transferred to remote work, which is not provided for by labor legislation. The author justifies the prospect of the proposal to subsequently separate out individual chapters in the labor codes of Russia and Kyrgyzstan, which provide for the specifics of labor regulation in an emergency (provisions). The main methods used in the article are the means of system analysis and the comparative legal method for studying the problems of labor legislation in Kyrgyzstan and Russia in terms of analyzing its current state and ensuring effective implementation in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
