Implementation of the International Labour Organization's Conventions in the BRICS Countries as a Factor in Their Labour Laws on Working Hours and Rest Time Unification

Abstract

The integration of international labour standards into the national legal systems of the BRICS countries is an important element in the unification of legal regulation of working hours and rest periods. Conventions of the International Labour Organization (ILO) play a key role in shaping unified approaches to the legal regulation of these aspects, which is reflected in setting limits on working hours and guaranteeing the right to rest. However, the process of implementing these standards is characterized by certain specifics due to differences in national labor law systems. This process requires a thorough analysis and adaptation of international norms, taking into account local legal traditions and socio-economic conditions. The integration of international labor standards not only promotes the harmonization of legal systems, but also strengthens international labor standards as universal principles aimed at protecting workers' rights and improving working conditions.
