Нещодавно роботодавці почали приділяти більше уваги своїм стосункам з працівниками.
Це обумовлено рядом причин, а саме тим, що працівники стали більш знаючими щодо того, як захищати свої права.
Відомо, що інтереси роботодавців і працівників є суперечливими, тому спори неминучі.
Роботодавці повинні вирішувати наступні питання: про звільнення працівників, про передення працівників на іншу роботу, про визначення покарання за порушення дисципліни, про оплату праці.
Звільнення працівника без дотримання норм трудового права може привести до судочинства проти роботодавця.
Якщо суд ухвалить рішення про незаконне звільненя працівника, роботодавець буде зобов’язаний заплатити працівнику середню заробітну плату за весь період, доки триває спір.
