Abstrak:

This article examines the legal framework governing the labor relations of employees assigned to the diplomatic and consular institutions of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Drawing upon the Law on Diplomatic Service (2022), the Labor Code (2023), and relevant international instruments, it analyzes how national labor legislation applies to diplomatic personnel abroad. The study identifies systemic issues such as unclear jurisdiction in labor disputes, outdated internal regulations, and limited social guarantees. The research concludes that harmonizing diplomatic and labor law, establishing an internal labor inspection system within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA), and introducing digital monitoring mechanisms are essential for strengthening labor-rights protection in the foreign-service system..
