ABSTRACT. The article highlights the process of transformation and the characteristics of certain important changes in the legislation of modern Ukraine on work under martial law. First of all, it is noted that the transformation of the provisions of national legislation, which regulate labor relations, takes place quite dynamically. That is why there is a constant need for scientific professional understanding and practical characterization of the essence and meaning of such changes. This, in fact, determines the relevance of this topic and the need to produce research studies in the field of legal protection of labor relations in the modern Ukrainian state. This article discusses the main changes in such areas of labor relations as the right to work, the right to rest (weekends, holidays and non-working days, holiday working days, vacations), the length of the working week, the effect of certain provisions of the collective agreement, changes in essential working conditions , maintaining a workplace during forced leave at one’s own expense, etc. during the period of martial law.

In particular, the article emphasizes that employers and employees are obliged to take into account, fulfill and comply with the requirements established by the Law of Ukraine “On the organization of labor relations under martial law” dated March 15, 2022 No. 2136-IX, the norms of which are in force during the period of employment martial law have a higher legal force than the provisions of the KZpPU. Also interesting is the fact that the central executive body – the Ministry of Economy – issued a commentary to the Law of Ukraine “On the Organization of Labor Relations in Martial Law” dated March 15, 2022.

Finally, it is noted that such changes (in the legislation, in this case we mean the legislation of modern Ukraine on labor, which establishes certain restrictions and features of the organization of labor relations at this time) are generally characteristic, objectively determined, and therefore justified, for the state , in relation to which brazen aggression and a full-scale military invasion are being carried out, in order to strengthen the defense capability and viability of the country as a whole.

Keywords: legislation, labor legislation, martial law, labor rights, labor duties.
