Dilemmas of electronic communication in labour law

Abstract

With the entry into force of the new labour law rules, responses to new life situations, such as the possibility of electronic communication, have come to the fore. Under certain conditions, the legislator treats the electronic document in the same way as paper documents. Our everyday relationships are transforming, becoming more and more digital. As a result, employees are increasingly using digital solutions to make their legal declarations. These life situations raise a lot of questions. Some of the questions have not yet been answered by the legislator. In the case of legal declarations made in electronic form, the scope of subjects and other conditions of mailing are often not clarified either. It would be necessary for the legislator to respond to these issues, as even in the current pandemic situation, many workers are trapped in the online space, which will result in more frequent use of digital solutions. In this study, we would like to present the current regulations and make suggestions for rethinking.
