The emotional sphere of an employee as an object of legal protection

The issue of protecting the emotional sphere of an employee in the structure of personal non-property rights in the science of labor law has not yet been subjected to a separate scientific analysis, but now it is being updated more than ever. This is primarily due to the fact that in the modern information society, in the conditions of service economy, when the usual way of labor relations, inherent in the era of industrial labor, is changing, the problem of determining the boundaries of the employer's power over the employee again comes to the fore. Only now these boundaries need to be set, taking into account not only physical, but also psycho-emotional professional risks. The article attempts to substantiate the category of "emotional" rights of an employee as the main object of protection in the structure of the employee's personal non-property rights. The analysis of scientific literature, normative regulation and law enforcement practice on the issues under study shows that the universal recognition of the importance of personal non-property rights does not ensure the effectiveness of their legal protection, which in turn is associated with the uncertainty of the object of protection of personal non-property labor rights. On this basis, it is proposed to specify and clarify the object of legal protection in the construction of personal non-property labor rights, which, from the point of view of the author, includes the psycho-emotional sphere of the employee. This approach allows to define the mechanism of legal protection of personal non-property labor rights in a more constructive way.
