Ermination of an employment contract by an employer in Russia, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan and international labour standards
The article examines the grounds for termination of an employment contract on the initiative of the employer, provided for by the labour codes of Russia, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan, taking into account their compliance with international labour standards. The author evaluates the legitimacy of the application of such a ground for termination of an employment contract with an employee as a violation of labour protection requirements entailed serious consequences, including injuries and accidents, in Kyrgyzstan. The indicated ground for termination of a contract necessitates the use of inva- Lid Soviet or current Russian technical regulations. This circumstance does not fully comply with the ILO Convention No. 187 ratified by Kyrgyzstan. The author points out that the application of the grounds for dismissal due to participation in illegal strikes in accordance with the labour codes of Russia, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan seems problematic because the legislator of these states has not given a definition of the right to strike yet. The legislator may accept the interpretation of the right to strike proposed by the ILO or work out its own detailed interpretation of this right in the context of international legal norms.
