Carrying out business activities, the company is obliged to comply with many norms of labor legislation and will certainly face inspections by regulatory authorities for compliance with them. Among the authorities that can visit the company: the State Labor Service, the State Tax Service, local authorities, the Pension Fund of Ukraine – and it is better to prepare for a meeting with them in advance.
The facts of non-compliance with labor laws revealed during the inspection are the basis for the application of cosmic fines, which may be disproportionate to the seriousness of the violation and cause significant damage to the company.
Ignorance of the current legislation and their own rights by the company employees, lack of skills, experience, how to act during inspections, as well as a psychological barrier in communicating with inspectors can lead to abuse by regulatory authorities and mistakes.
