Problem setting. Due to the annexation of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, the conduct of the anti-terrorist operation (2014-2018), the operation of the Joint Forces (from 2018 until now), the temporary occupation of certain areas of Donetsk and Luhansk regions, new entities needing social protection (forced displaced persons, citizens of Ukraine who remained in the occupied territories, ATO participants, OUF, family members of victims of such operations, etc.), and there was an urgent need for legal regulation of public relations with these entities. State rulemaking in this area is often haphazard, spontaneous, contradictory, which, as a result, does not allow it to achieve its overriding goal of ensuring adequate social protection for people. In such circumstances, the study of the problems of legal regulation of social and legal protection of ATO / OUF participants as a special subject of such relations is quite relevant.
Target of research is to identify problems in the legal regulation of relations on social protection of ATO/OUF participants, as well as to prepare proposals for improvement of legislation in this area.
Analysis of recent researchers shows that scientists’ attention to the selected problem is updated. Candidate Dissertation of D. A. Chizhov is devoted to the study of the legal mechanism of ensuring social protection of a person in conditions of military conflict in Ukraine. The legal status of an internally displaced person as a subject of social security law has been studied and analyzed in her dissertation I. S. Basova. Some issues of legal regulation of social protection of military personnel in the area of ATO are also outlined in the scientific works of such researchers as D. Aleksandrov, A. L. Beykun, V. S. Venediktov, O. I. Yermakov, N. V. Fist, S. S. Lukash, O. M. Levchuk, A. Ya. Radizvidlo, D. O. Tzedik, A. A. Shire.
Article’s main body. Based on a detailed analysis of scientific works, regulations, statistics in this field, the article concludes that it is advisable to introduce a unified approach to the regulation of social protection of ATO/OUF members and their families and to propose to systematise existing numerous legislation into a single regulatory and legal framework. an act (law) that would cover all aspects of such protection.
Conclusions and prospects for the development. On the basis of the above, it was concluded that it is possible to develop and adopt a new regulatory act (law) that would determine the legal status of ATO/OUF participants, equals persons, their families, and consolidate their rights, ensure the creation of proper living conditions , the provision of benefits, benefits and social guarantees in the course of employment in accordance with training and health. In addition, it is proposed to change the approach to establishing the status of a combatant, to introduce several categories of combatants depending on certain criteria (period of service, its duration, area of service), which will differentiate benefits, benefits and social guarantees to such persons.
