TYPES OF LABOR DISPUTES AND THEIR
RESOLUTION PROCEDURES
Labor disputes are an inherent aspect of employer-employee relationships, often arising due to disagreements over wages, working conditions, contractual obligations, and employee rights. This paper examines the classification of labor disputes, their primary causes, and the mechanisms available for their resolution. By exploring individual and collective labor disputes, the study highlights legal frameworks, procedural methods, and best practices for resolving conflicts in accordance with contemporary labor legislation. Effective dispute resolution ensures legal compliance, preserves professional relationships, and promotes workplace stability.
Labor disputes, also known as employment conflicts, occur when disagreements arise between employers and employees regarding their rights, responsibilities, or work environment. Such disputes can affect both individual employees and collective groups, including labor unions. Understanding the types of labor disputes, their causes, and appropriate resolution procedures is essential to maintain industrial peace, prevent legal conflicts, and foster productive labor relations [1, p. 15–18].
The aim of this study is to analyze labor disputes, classify them into individual and collective types, identify their primary causes, and present the mechanisms for their resolution within legal frameworks.
