Abstract

Non-standard types of work are becoming increasingly common due to rapid changes in labor relations, human resource management, and social and labor interactions caused by social transformation and globalization. This includes contract work, freelance work, and remote work, all of which require social protection due diligence. The need to evaluate the effectiveness of protecting these workers, especially in times of war and economic uncertainty, makes the study relevant. The methods of analysis used in the study include analysis, synthesis, individualization, generalization, analytical method, analogy, abstraction, dialectical approach, systemic and structural method, and formal logical method. The purpose of the study is to analyze the social protection of workers in non-standard forms of employment, identify their main problems and shortcomings, and develop recommendations for improving legislation and policies to ensure the effective protection of these workers.
