Abstract

The article proposes to the investigation of the right to privacy as one of the labor law categories. It is due to such challenges of digitalization as violation of the confidentiality of personal data and the almost unlimited of their data mining through electronic monitoring of the workflow process, the use of automated processing of personal data, artificial intelligence systems and others. Based on the analysis of acts of an international nature (cases of the International Labor Organization, the Council of Europe, the Eurasian Economic Union), as well as national acts of the members of the Eurasian Economic Union, the conclusion is substantiated on the need for special labor and legal regulation of the right to privacy in relation to citizens entering into relations with the employer. The possibility of giving this right the status of one of the fundamental principles of Labor Law is proved in the article.
