| Abstract [eng] |
Scientific articles, legal acts of the Republic of Lithuania, legal acts of the European Union and case law are analysed in the work to reveal the legal regulation of wages. It should be noted that problematic aspects of pay systems are revealed. The first part of the master's thesis aims to examine the concept of wages, the relationship between wages and other similar concepts, to distinguish wages through a legal and economic prism, to provide a definition and explanation of wages in national and European Union law. Representatives of legal science allocate wages and other similar concepts according to the content. In national law, in most cases, only the "concept of remuneration" is used, except for special legislation. European Union legislation reveals wages through the principles of labour law. To reveal what the legal regulation of wages in Lithuania is, the most important imperative norms of the legal regulation of wages were analysed. It has been concluded that the field of remuneration for work is more dispositive than imperative. The work analyses the historical context of wages as a prerequisite for work. It is emphasized that wages were not always a mandatory condition of the employment contract when concluding employment contracts. The second part of the master's thesis aims to reveal the importance of pay systems, the rules for determining wages are analysed. The most common problematic aspects of the field of remuneration for work are discussed, cases of discrimination in practice are considered. Great attention is paid to the problems of the establishment of official salary coefficients and the separation of bonuses. The discussion aspects analysed relate to the determination of working time when employees are working part-time or reduced working hours. The third part of the Master aims to reveal the order of the form, location, and terms of salary. During practical situations, the forms of wages and possible problems of the place are considered. Special attention is paid when examining the problematic aspects of late wages, the problems of the determination of late payment interest and penalties, and the factors of determining liability. |
