Анотація

The article is aimed at studying the theoretical aspects of social partnership as an element of the sphere of social and labor relations. Analyzing the works of Ukrainian and foreign scholars, it was found that social partnership is an effective instrument for generating new forms of interaction between business, society and the State. This is a special type of social relations that leads to a balance in the realization of the interests of social groups of society, which is realized mainly in the field of social and labor relations. The main stages of creating an effectively functioning social partnership are allocated and characterized. As a result of the carried out study, it is revealed that social partnership in Ukraine is not yet developed, i. e., it stalls at the stage of establishing. The most realized social partnership in the sphere of social and labor relations of Ukraine is the partnership of employees – employers, where the interests of employers are represented by the Federation of Employers of Ukraine, the interests of employees – by the Federation of Trade Unions. The government, public authorities and local self-government bodies may also be involved as a third party of interest. Interaction in this social partnership is conducted through social dialogue by means of negotiations and the conclusion of relevant agreements. It is noted that an effective social dialogue will be successful only when its benefits are clearly defined and well understood by all parties involved. For this purpose, the main advantages of involvement in social partnership for each of the participating subjects (employees, employers, the State) are identified and systematized. Prospects for further research are to study the experience of developed countries and, on this basis, to develop an effective mechanism for introducing social partnership for different categories of participants in Ukraine, as well as to determine its economic efficiency.
