Legislative regulation of grounds for dismissal of an employee for committing a corruption or corruption-related offense
Abstract
The article is devoted to the analysis of the current legislation of Ukraine regarding the rationing of grounds for dismissal of an employee for committing corruption or corruption-related offenses. Scientific points of view and relevant provisions of general and specific legislation on the interpretation of such definitions as "corruption", "corruption offense" and "corruption-related offense" are analyzed. The necessity to study this issue is based on the fact that the European integration direction of Ukraine's development is not possible without effective counteraction to corruption as a negative social phenomenon, which impedes the normal functioning of economic relations and civil society in general. In this context, it is emphasized that an employee who has committed a corruption offense and who has been found guilty of such an offense by a court decision, which has come into force, must be dismissed. Attention is drawn to the fact that following a court decision, it is not always possible to dismiss an employee on the ground of a corruption offense, since a person may be dismissed immediately after the administrative protocol has been drawn up against him. The purpose of the article is to analyze the current legislation of Ukraine on the regulation of grounds for dismissing of an employee for committing a corruption or corruption-related offense. Research methods are defined taking into account the purpose of the research, which is why modern methods of scientific cognition, namely comparative legal and generalization, are used. The application of these methods made it possible to achieve comprehensiveness and objectivity of scientific research, validity and consistency of the formulated conclusions.
