This article is devoted to the study of peculiarities of
legal regulation of the employment of athletes. Sport
has become an important part of the vital activity of
the entire human society long ago, and, problems of
legal regulation of the employment of athletes attached
great importance both in Russia and abroad. In
addition to international acts, the Constitution of the
RF and the Labour code, labour relations and other
directly related to them between athletes and their
employers are governed by many various acts,
regulations – federal laws, regulations, treaties,
agreements, statutes of sport organizations, sport
regulations. Therefore in practice exist a lot of
problems and may will be more in the application of
labour laws and other normative legal acts on labour
rights and guarantees of professional athletes and
coaches. We must take into account not only all
sources but also, primarily, the specificity of the scope
of their regulatory relationships. The authors consider
that the normative legal basis, as well as the ratio of
labour and special sports legislation studied explicitly
is not sufficient and require further research, that
indicates the relevance of the topic. The authors not
only analyzed modern legislation, researched statistics,
scientific literature on the topic, but also revealed the
gaps and problems in the regulation and suggested
measures for the improvement and further
development of the Russian labour legislation in the
sphere of sport. Special attention is given to the term
"sudden death of an athlete," and so, the procedure of
compulsory insurance of professional athletes must be
resolved. It is proposed to introduce the terms " sport
season", "sports" Athlete Passport, complement and
greatly extend guarantees and compensations to
athletes and coaches of pay, working hours,
termination of employment, labour and social
protection
This article deals with the legal status of trade unions
in contemporary society, it reveals the basic functions
of trade unions. It is shown, that the existing labor
legislation and legislation on trade unions is
contradictory, difficult to use, and it can be stated that
it does not meet current realities. The work of the trade
union organization directly depends on how the
evolving state. Any social changes pose new
challenges for trade unions, sometimes require radical
change of priorities, forced again and again looking for
new forms and methods of solving problems, so today
there is very important to assess the role of trade
unions in modern Russia, their values, and legal status.
In addition, in this regard, the authors justify the need
for further improving of labor legislation and
legislation on trade unions, especially regarding the
definition and specification of the tasks and functions
of trade unions. The authors propose to clarify the
definition of "trade union", to consolidate the open list
types of trade union organizations and to define their
functions. In order to strengthen the role of trade
unions, we should require employers not only take into
account the reasoned opinion of the trade unions when
making decisions, but accept local acts only with the
prior permission of trade unions, as well as to establish
administrative responsibility in the case of failure
