Cramor, the employee of the company "Lapti" was fired for systematic violation of labor discipline (under paragraph 3 of Part 1 of Article 40 of the Labor Code of Ukraine). Mr Cramor considered that such dismissal was unlawful because before the dismissal order had been issued, he had applied to the Director for the termination of labour relation by his own request. Mr. Kramor asks to change the formulation of the grounds for termination of his employment contract and to recognize that the ground of termination of the contract was his own initiative. The employer denies such a possibility, pointing out that the systematic violation of labor discipline and the fact of violation on the day of filing the written statement about termination of the labour relations doesn't relieve the employee from his duties. Please, analyse the situation and provide the parties with legal advice. 8. Facts. Mrs. Y., employee of the MMM corporation was dismissed for being late for work for 30-45 minutes. The employer considers this lateness as systematic violations of labor discipline. Mrs. Y. believes that such dismissal is illegal, as her regular delays occur due to the regular delays of the bus schedule for exactly 30-45 minutes. Taking into account the district where she lives, there is no other possibility to get to the city center except by bus. Mrs. Y. can't afford the taxi for this route. In addition, in order to work her working hours, Y. has always worked for one hour more. Mrs. Y. asks you for legal advice. 9. Due to the financial crisis and the reduction of the company's income, the management of the company "Burger Klass" asked the trade union to approve the dismissal of 10 employees within the reorganization and redundancies. The trade union bureau did not approve the collective dismissal. After receiving the refusal, the Director decided to transfer (change the conditions of the contracts) all employees to part-time work with payment in proportion to the hours worked after 2 months' notification. Everyone was informed in writing. Employees and the trade union were outraged by the employer's action and decided to go to court regarding the illegality of the Director's actions. However, some employees agreed to work part-time, believing that this was the only way to save the staff and the company in difficult crisis times. Some workers decided to sue against the trade union, as they would not be dismissed if the union had agreed to dismiss 10 workers and would continue to perform their duties in full and receive a salary
