Features of Termination of an Employment Contract at the Initiative of the Employer: Uzbekistan’s Case
Аннотация
Among labor disputes, perhaps one of the most interesting and difficult to study is the termination of an employment contract at the employer’s initiative. Due to the complexity of the mechanism (formal requirements) for the termination of an employment contract at the employer’s initiative, many employers try to formalize the termination of an employment contract on other grounds (for example, by agreement of the parties (art. 157 of Labor Code of Uzbekistan – hereafter referred to as LC/Labor code) or at the employee’s initiative (art.160 LC)). In essence, this means that employers in practice cannot properly apply their right as guaranteed by the Labor Code. In this regard, the article elaborates in detail the procedure for terminating an employment contract on the employer’s initiative, in accordance with the legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan, and discusses case law, provides examples and provides scientific explanations.
