| Abstract [eng] |
This master paper analyses the regulation of occupational safety and health issues and its conception on the basis of the Lithuanian, international and European Union legal regulation, legal literature, legal practice and official statistics. The aim of this work is to find out which branches of law and to what scale regulate the safety and health at work and what gives the reason to consider this institute as an object of labour law regulation. Additionally, the regulation of occupational safety and health is analysed as relation of rights and obligations between labour law parties (employer and employee). The paper is trying to examine the content of mentioned issues, the actual regulations on implementation of these opportunities as well as raising the existing problematic regulation issues. The main attention is focussed both on the possibilities of employee to protect his rights both individually and collectively; and on the classification, content and implementation of the employer’s obligations in the field of safety and health at work. |
