Bozukova Elena Mikhailovna

By virtue of article 21 of the Labor code of the Russian Federation, one of the basic rights of employees is to protect their labor rights, freedoms and legitimate interests in all ways not prohibited by law. In our article, we will talk about one of the ways to protect violated labor rights of employees – the state control (supervision) over compliance with labor legislation and other regulations containing labor law norms, in other words, the state labor Inspectorate checks. The article discusses the main reasons why employees apply for the restoration of violated rights to the state body; also describes in detail the potential risks that the employer bears based on the results of an unscheduled inspection, and finally, employers are given recommendations to minimize the occurrence of conflict situations.
