the field of labor of transport workers, which are
enshrined in international acts and international
documents. It was concluded that it is quite important
for Ukraine to bring the norms of national law closer
to international ones, especially in the field of
ensuring the labor relations of transport workers,
since the transport industry is developing quite quickly
and is already actively going beyond the borders of
our state. Scientists emphasized the importance of
research, international standards for the regulation of
labor relations in relation to transport workers, since
such international standards in relation to transport
workers have not been comprehensively studied, and

peculiarities of labor regulation transport workers. In
addition, the lack of application in Ukraine of special
international legal standards regarding the labor
regulation of transport workers significantly affects
the state of compliance with the social and labor rights
of transport workers. The article provides a detailed
review of the international labor standards of
transport workers and international standards in the
field of direct labor, that is, those standards that relate
