Abstract
The article explains the notions ‘trade union’ and ‘employer’. Historic review of the trade union movement in Russia is described. Trade unions were legalized in Western countries in the 30-90-s of the 19- th century, while in Russia it took place on the turn of 19th – 20th centuries. Changes in the union movement after the October revolution 1917 are shown, such as new responsibilities of socialist trade union organizations, organization of labour socialist competition, educational work. In 1921 the newspaper ‘Trud’ was published, which is a body of the All-Union Central Council of Trade Unions. In different periods the role of trade unions increased and dropped. Nowadays trade unions acquired organizational independence. The work of trade unions is regulated by the Constitution of the Russian Federation. The government of Moscow, Moscow associations of trade unions and Moscow associations of employers concluded a three-sided agreement in order to guarantee the interests of employees, employers and bodies of executive power in social and labour relations. The trade union organization of the Russian Plekhanov University of Economics and the University administration concluded a collective bargaining, which takes into account specific features of the University and coordinates the parties’ interests in acute problems.
