Борьба с допингом как составная часть охраны труда спортсменов в России
Objective of the study was to analyze the valid labor code in application to the
national sport community and demonstrate that the labor code provisions fully
agree with the anti-doping provisions that may be considered an integral part
of the athletic labor safety system. The authors applied a range of common and
specific research tools (including the dialectical, formal-logic and law application
ones) to analyze the valid national athletic labor codes and labor safety provisions
– and demonstrate that every doping (i.e. administration of prohibited agents
and procedures) case shall be interpreted as the labor code violation. It is
acknowledged that the relevant Russian agencies have made progress in the
doping control initiatives including the ones to step up the athlete’s responsibility
in doping cases – albeit the national legislation is still in need of a special doping
control law like the German one. We believe that the Russian law-makers should
explore and draw on the German experience to tighten the criminal, administrative
and corporate responsibility in doping cases.
