Labour code

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A labour code, (also called a code of labour laws) is a codification of labor laws in legislative form.

One of the first labour codes was first introduced in 1918 in the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, as a legal framework underlying the requirement to ensure the right to work declared in the first Soviet Constitution.^[1]

In the aftermath of post-war the labour codes basing upon the same set of social guarantees were introduced in German Democratic Republic, People's Republic of Hungary, People's Republic of Poland and the other socialist countries in Central and Eastern Europe.

Presently the Labour Code exists in Russian Federation and in some other former Soviet Republics.

In Canada the Labour Code (R.S., 1985, c. L-2) was adopted in 1985 superseding the Industrial Relations and Disputes Investigation Act of 1948.^[2]
