Цель исследования заключается в оценке эффективности механизмов социального партнерства в условиях реформирования трудового права, выявлении актуальных проблем правового регулирования трудовых отношений и разработке научно обоснованных рекомендаций по их совершенствованию. Методологическую основу исследования составили сравнительно-правовой, системный, формально-юридический и аналитический методы. По результатам исследования обоснована необходимость укрепления правовых основ института социального партнерства в Республике Казахстан, а также выявлены правовые пробелы, препятствующие обеспечению баланса прав и обязанностей работников и работодателей. Предложены направления совершенствования механизмов коллективных переговоров, усиления правовых гарантий при разрешении трудовых споров и модернизации национального трудового законодательства с учетом международного опыта. Научная ценность исследования заключается в развитии теоретических подходов к реформированию трудового права и совершенствовании правовых механизмов реализации принципов социальной справедливости. Полученные результаты могут быть использованы в законотворческой деятельности, правоприменительной практике, а также в дальнейших научных исследованиях в области трудового права.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article addresses the development of labour legislation in the Republic of Kazakhstan with particular attention to social partnership and the distribution of legal responsibilities between employees and employers. The analysis focuses on whether the existing legal framework provides sufficient conditions for effective interaction between the parties to employment relations and for the protection of their respective interests. Particular attention is given to shortcomings in the current regulation of social partnership, collective bargaining, and the settlement of labour disputes. The research relies on comparative legal analysis, a systematic examination of labour-law provisions, formal legal interpretation, and analytical assessment of the relevant regulatory framework. The results indicate that the existing legal mechanisms do not fully ensure an effective balance between the interests and obligations of employees and employers. On this basis, the article develops proposals aimed at improving collective bargaining procedures, reinforcing legal safeguards for the resolution of labour disputes, and further adapting Kazakhstan’s labour legislation to contemporary requirements and internationally recognized approaches. The scientific value of the research lies in advancing theoretical approaches to labor law reform and improving legal mechanisms aimed at ensuring social justice. The findings may be applied in legislative development, law enforcement practice, and further academic research in the field of labor law.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>трудовое законодательство</kwd><kwd>законодательное реформирование</kwd><kwd>трудовые отношения</kwd><kwd>трудовое право</kwd><kwd>социальное партнерство</kwd><kwd>работник</kwd><kwd>работодатель</kwd><kwd>модернизация трудового законодательства</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>labor legislation</kwd><kwd>legislative reform</kwd><kwd>labor relations</kwd><kwd>labor law</kwd><kwd>social partnership</kwd><kwd>employee</kwd><kwd>employer</kwd><kwd>reform of labour legislation</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="en">This research was carried out within the framework of project AP25793729, funded by the Committee of Science of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan, entitled “Reformation and Renovation: Strategies for the Development of the Labour Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan.</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Об утверждении Национального плана развития Республики Казахстан до 2029 года и признании утратившими силу некоторых указов Президента Республики Казахстан: Указ Президента Республики Казахстан от 30 июля 2024 года № 611.
