Abstract

The article analyzes the problems of realization of the mechanism of guarantees and
compensation to employees exposed to harmful factors of production in the zone of radiation
influence. On the basis of research conducted by the Scientific Commission on the
effects of atomic radiation, United Nations (UNSCEAR) and the Nuclear research establishment,
Witsell Canadian Commission it is concluded that some of the closed administrative-
territorial entities and territories adjacent to them are zones of radiation impact,
however according to the existing regulations they do not have such a status. The current
law and practice in the field of guarantees and compensation to employees exposed to
harmful factors of production are in the zone of radiation influence are analyzed. On the
basis of the analysis the conclusion about the violation of the constitutional and labor
rights of citizens is given. Specific recommendations for resolution of issues addressed
are offered.
