abstract: 'Purpose - This paper aims to cover the problems arising in the process

  of women employment. The purpose is to investigate problems arising in

  the process of women employment, to analyse the existence of

  discriminatory aspects with regard to certain categories of workers, and

  to give recommendations for overcoming discrimination against women in

  the labour market.

  Design/methodology/ approach - The research was based on formal-logical

  and general scientific cognitive methods (analysis and synthesis,

  abstraction and concretization and deduction and induction). Systems and

  functional methods were used. The methods of concrete-sociological

  researches were used to gather, analyse and process legal information.

  The comparative-legal methods determined the actual realization of

  gender equality principles in different countries.

  Findings - The Ukrainian labour legislation is imperfect and should be

  reformed, so as to not only declare but also protect women''s rights, in

  accordance with the current realities and fluctuations in the labour

  market.

  Practical implications - The research helps overcome gender and age

  discrimination in Ukraine''s labour market, especially the relations that

  emerge at the employment stage. Discrimination against women at this

  stage is one of the most common forms of gender inequality.

  Originality/value - Certain gaps in the labour legislation were found.

  The level of conformity of the current labour-relations-regulating

  legislation with the policy of equal rights and opportunities for women

  and men was determined. Recommendations, aimed at changing legal

  regulations to prevent gender discrimination, were developed, with a

  view to solving existing gender-related problems in the field of labour.'
