1. Introduction


Since her independence in 1991, the Republic of Kazakhstan (hereinafter Kazakhstan)
has actively participated in the international community. The Concept of the Legal
Policy of the Republic of Kazakhstan between 2010 and 2020 has emphasized that
foreign policy should maintain a balanced and prudent approach to international
agreements and organizations, considering the socioeconomic, political, legal and
other consequences. Kazakhstan should actively utilize international legal institutions
in order to ensure her national interests in the regional and global society, by establishing
a safe and stable Central Asia.
    A promising area of international cooperation is the socio-labor spheres, whose
objectives are to improve human well-being, socio-economic stability and social and
labor rights.
    This report aims to analyze the social and labor rights protection system of
Kazakhstan from an institutional aspect of international law. It will mainlyfocus on
the Decent Work Programs of Kazahkstan in connection with the International Labor
Organization (ILO). This analysis will address new aspects for the protection
of social and labor rights in Kazakhstan and the interaction of international and
municipal law in this area.
