Recovery of damage caused by the employee

The article is devoted to topical problems of the application of the norms of the institution of material responsibility. It is especially important to draw the legislator's attention to the need for greater protection of the employer's property rights, since in the current Labor Code of the Russian Federation, most of the rules governing material liability are aimed exclusively at protecting the interests of the employee, which is due to his dependent position in labor relations. But the employer must be fully protected, otherwise, this will lead to ignoring the tasks of labor legislation by the law enforcement officer. The purpose of this study is to formulate proposals for changes in legislation that would equally protect the rights of workers and employers.
