THE FUTURE OF LABOUR RIGHTS IN COVID 19 CONTEXT

Abstract

This paper addresses the current issue of the employment situation in the context of the new world situation related to the Sars Kov.2 (Covid 19) virus and the consequences that we should expect in the future. The author of the paper analyses the policies undertaken at a national level in the Macedonian legal and economic system that aim to deal with the problems and consequences of the virus. The paper analyses the measures and how they reflect on the basic labour rights and the already adopted labour standards. The author of the paper answers the essential question, which is whether, in the conditions of the spread of the virus, the state bodies that create policies are ready and to what extent to restrict the basic labour rights and international standards. This paper also provides guidance and scientifically predicts the future steps to be taken to transform and give a new role to the labour law in the coming years and decades.
