Analysis of recent research and publications. In domestic science the issues of seasonal work usually considered in the context of the incurrence and termination of such labor relations, as well as a form of employment. Thus, the ideological basis of legal regulation of seasonal work formed in the USSR, and Ukrainian legislation after the declaration of independence has not been significant changed in this regard. Target of research. The purposes of this article are a comparative analysis of EU and Ukrainian legislation in the field of work safety of seasonal workers labor and formulation the proposals for the improvement of national legislation. Article’s main body. It should be noted that EU legislation on the organization of work of seasonal workers categorically establishes that all seasonal workers should have such an accommodation that ensures an adequate standard of living. Under the EU legislation there are two kinds of labor contracts of seasonal workers. The first makes for a period not exceeding 90 days and the second makes for a period exceeding 90 days. The labor contracts should have the necessary conditions: 1. Place and type of work. 2. Duration of employment. 3. Remuneration. 4. The number of working hours during a week or month. 5. Paid leave. 6. Working conditions. 7. If it possible – the date of commencement of work. Conclusions and prospects for the development. Overall, this study shows that the domestic legislation on the organization and work safety of seasonal workers labor is outdated and does not meet modern social and economic conditions of the state’s development. Since the declaration of independence, any significant changes in the legal regulation of the seasonal workers labor in Ukraine haven’t been conducted. In terms of Ukraine’s integration into the EU, it is advisable to use the experience of the European Union concerning the regulation of seasonal workers labor.
