TRANSFORMING LABOR RELATIONS IN UZBEKISTAN'S CIVIL SERVICE: INSIGHTS FROM INTERNATIONAL PRACTICES
Abstract
This article delves into the unique features of labor relations in Uzbekistan’s civil service as defined by Articles 30 and 33 of the 2022 Law on Civil Service. It investigates the rationale behind the exclusion of labor contracts for political positions and explores the practical implications of adopting labor contracts for other civil service roles. The study employs a robust methodological framework, including historical-legal analysis, comparative legal analysis, and normative-analytical methods, to examine both national and international practices. Comparative insights are drawn from the European Union, the United States, the United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, and the UAE, focusing on innovative approaches to structuring civil service labor relations. The findings highlight critical areas for aligning Uzbekistan’s labor legislation with global standards and propose actionable recommendations for enhancing transparency, accountability, and efficiency within the civil service framework. The study’s conclusions aim to contribute to the modernization of Uzbekistan’s civil service, offering a pathway to harmonize domestic practices with international norms while addressing specific national challenges. The findings aim to enhance the regulatory framework for civil service and address key challenges in its application.
