A NEW INTERPRETATION OF THE LEGISLATION AND REGULATIONS ON OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY, FIRE PROTECTION AND ENVIRONMENT PROTECTION (1)
Nikola Muslim
Abstract
The author argues that the laws and regulations governing occupational safety, fire protection and environment protection may constitute penal, petty offence, civil or disciplinary norms and, according to the Constitution, they make a single whole. With the help of these laws and regulations a single system may be created for the protection of the right to living and working safety of citizens and employees.
The author's new and original interpretation brings out the constitutional principles underlying the positive laws, including the right to all forms of protection, regardless of their formal name. He briefly deals with the idea of the single law and explains the process of the law’s creation according to legal criteria. Outlined are the specific features of protection in legislation and the need to avoid the petrification of the technical knowledge in formal norms. In conclusion, the author mentions in footnote form the incentives for this type of analysis.
