Problem setting. In the conditions of European integration transformations in Ukraine, work remains the main source of income for the population, and therefore the issue of wages is important for the paradigm of post-industrial development of all economic systems. Currently, the state has, unfortunately, established a policy of low wages, which negatively affects the growth of labor productivity. Therefore, the payment of labor almost does not fulfill its key function – the reproduction of the spent energy of human resources and the motivation of workers for productive work. As of today, in the conditions of active law-making perspectives of the labor legislation of Ukraine in the aspect of their European integration, the issue of developing and implementing effective labor payment systems has matured. Purpose of the research is to consider fairness as a key principle in the remuneration of a special subject of labor law – scientific workers. Analysis of recent researches and publications. Such scientists as M. Baru, N. Bolotina, V. Burak, Yu. Burnyagina, N. Hetmantseva, K. Dovbysh, V. Zhernakov, T. Kolyada, O. Protsevskyi, Ya. Simutina, O. Yaroshenko and oth. Important scientific provisions on which the modern understanding of the category of justice is based are developed in the works of O. Bandura, V. Horbatenko, K. Dovbysh, I. Zhigalkin, V. Kovalchuk, M. Kostecki, P. Rabinovych, H. Chanysheva etc. Their scientific works have not lost their scientific value until now, however, in modern conditions, the issue of justice, in particular in the field of remuneration, takes on a new meaning and needs to be reconsidered. Article’s main body. Today, more than ever, there is a need for highly qualified personnel and their professionalization. Therefore, the priority directions of educational and scientific policy should be the development, adoption and implementation of decisions aimed at preserving and developing the personnel potential of education and science, ensuring its vital activity, establishing order and procedures that determine the most effective use of human resources. Important importance in this process is the creation of decent working conditions, decent and fair pay, proper, safe and healthy working conditions. Since the policy of low wages in the educational and scientific spheres leads to workers looking for work in other types of economic activity with a higher level of wages and migration abroad. Conclusions and prospects for the development. One of the main issues that need an urgent solution is the issue of remuneration of scientists. In particular, the remuneration of a scientific worker should provide sufficient material conditions for his effective independent creative activity, increase the prestige of the profession of a scientific worker, stimulate the involvement of talented young people in scientific and scientific and technical activities, and improve the qualifications of scientific workers. All teaching staff should have a decent level of remuneration for their extremely difficult and responsible work. A proposal was made to amend the Law of Ukraine “On Scientific and Scientific-Technical Activities” regarding the provision of decent and fair conditions of remuneration for scientific workers, which will contribute to increasing the prestige of the work of this category of workers, and will also allow to ensure the observance of their labor rights, will contribute to the improvement of their financial situation.
