Legal regulation of remote work in russia

Abstract

Labor law in Russia is expected to change in order to make this sphere more attractive to employers, more accessible to employees, and more effective for the state. The practice meets expectations of optimists for the implementation of progressive reforms, which also affect problems of the labor regulation. Business has long been interested in using this tool, but the lack of skills in new technologies among a wide range of employees and the inertia of the current legislation hindered the process. Currently, there is a clear tendency to overcome all the indicated obstacles to the widespread use of remote work in Russia. This article investigates the current legislation and practice of the remote work application, recent changes in the sphere, as well as development trends in the remote work regulation, taking into account the changing needs of the population.
