The article is devoted to the formulation of proposals to increase the level of regulatory support of legal regimes in the labor law of Ukraine at the level of state regulation. It is emphasized that the legal regime is a static and dynamic phenomenon of objective reality, which concentrates in its substantive system the legal remedies used at certain stages of legal regulation in order to effectively secure it. The legal regime influences the employee and the employer as participants of the labor process, their consciousness and behavior, as a result of which the parties of labor relations optimize the motivation for work, their work activity, modify it or even stop it. However, despite the important role of the legal regime in the further development of labor law, this issue continues to be poorly researched, which negatively affects the effectiveness of legal regimes.
 It is emphasized that the legal regime contributes to the creation and maintenance of a coherent system of regulatory influence, order, and, under the influence of appropriate means of legal regulation, functions to achieve the effective realization by individuals of their needs, subjective rights and interests and the fulfillment of their duties. Effectiveness of legal regulation is determined not only by a one-time result, but also by its stability, in this connection the legislator, forming, exercising the right, is obliged to take into account the adequacy of the chosen legal means for the stated purpose and task.
 It is proposed to amend the Code of Labor Laws, which will contribute to a more effective implementation of the legal regime in practice. In particular, supplement the Code of Labor Law with articles on the notion of the labor-law regime, the purpose and objectives of the regime in labor law, as well as the criteria for the effectiveness of legal regimes in labor law. As such criteria, it is proposed to emphasize the validity of the fixing and functioning of the legal regime in labor law, the timeliness and urgency of fixing and change, the abolition of the legal regime in labor law, the reality of the legal regime in labor law. The skillful and effective use of the legal remedies, the well-defined purpose of the legal policy and the introduction of the appropriate legal regime will contribute to the effective realization of the socio-economic rights and interests of the subjects of labor relations and to the solution of the tasks facing the state and society as a whole.
