THE ROLE OF SOCIAL DIALOGUE FOR IMPROVING THE SYSTEM OF EMPLOYEE'S PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT IN UKRAINE

The article is examining the role of social dialogue and its subjects in promoting the concept of lifelong learning for employees. It has been proven that the development and implementation of lifelong learning systems is a shared responsibility of the social partners – government officials, employers and employees. The bilateral or tripartite social dialogue will ensure a truly integrated approach, that takes into account the interests of all parties and promotes more effective implementation of lifelong learning programs. The main documents of the International Labour Organization about the professional development of employees have been reviewed. Based on their analysis, the author identifies the main tasks and directions of influence of trade unions and employers to ensure continuous training of employees. It is emphasized that the ILO regulates the need for strengthening the social dialogue on professional development, including involvement of the social partners in the development of national strategies in the field of education and training, monitoring trends in competencies etc. Legal basis for the participation of social partners in the formation and implementation of state policy on adult education in Ukraine was determined. Proposals were made to improve national legislation and draft laws in the sphere of professional development of employees to increase the role of trade unions and employers' organizations in promoting the lifelong learning.
