Abstract
The paper is devoted to the study of the transformation of legal regulation of labor in a digital society. In a comparative legal manner the paper attempts to indicate changes in labor and social security laws, which are also associated with digitalization processes. The influence of digital technologies on modern society is constantly growing: the economy, the sphere of communications between people, culture, life are changing under the influence of artificial intelligence technologies, the Internet of things, digital twins and many others. The digital economy is changing the content of labor relations from the inside through automation and an increasing degree of production robotization. Robotics and complex computer programs transfer some of the functions that employees previously performed, and the share of artificial intelligence systems in the production and service sector is growing rapidly. The algorithms underlying digitalization “penetrate” into legal regulation thus expanding its tools. On the one hand, employees and employers experience the influence of algorithmization through a change in the production environment; on the other hand, processes of law transformation begin in order to adapt legal regulation to the conditions of a digital society to maintain its effectiveness as a social regulator. Based on the results of the study, it is possible to draw conclusions on the objective need for the use of digital instruments by law, which should take into account the level of technology achieved, the existence of a tendency to law algorithmization, and the prerequisites for the further dissemination of algorithms in the field of labor and its legal regulation.
Highlights
The relevance of this topic is dictated by the fact that modern society has entered the era of digital transformation characterized by the rapid development of digital technologies, their mutual strengthening and the introduction of development results into production, services and agriculture in the form of robots supplemented by artificial intelligence and capable of self-improvement, in the form of neurogadgets that make it possible to “read” human brain data and transfer them to artificial intelligence systems for analysis in the form of the Internet of things capable of interacting with each other without human participation, etc
Digital technologies are unevenly distributed around the world, but, as practice shows, even countries not belonging to world technology leaders quickly perceive the best practices and try to spread them on their territory favoring the digital transformation of the economy
It is obvious that digital society and the digital economy are more active use of computer technologies and robots in all spheres of life
Summary
Digital technologies are unevenly distributed around the world, but, as practice shows, even countries not belonging to world technology leaders quickly perceive the best practices and try to spread them on their territory favoring the digital transformation of the economy. Such changes affect the state of employees, the capabilities of employers and require a response from the law. The digital future comes, the speed of technology development increases and changes increase, they affect both the economic and political, social, cultural components of society All this allows talking about the entry of society into an era of digital transformation, which requires an appropriate response from the law
