The bill (Reg. No. 3388) suggests amend the Criminal Code of Ukraine by supplementing it with new articles in the part of establishing responsibility for violation of labour legislation pertaining to employment; failure to notify an employee of the use of his/her labour without formalizing labour relations; payment of a salary in the amount that is lower than the minimum one established by the law, etc.

It is suggested introduce a guaranteed salary.

It was noted that adoption of the draft law will help increase efficiency of state control over adherence to legislation on labour.
