Labour Code amended in line with doping regulations

December 29, 2017

The President signed the Federal Law On Amendments to the Labour Code of the Russian Federation.

To prevent the use of doping in sports, the Federal Law amends the Russian Labour Code to include additional provisions requiring that an employment contract with a coach specify that the coach observe anti-doping rules in force in Russia and imposed by international anti-doping organisations. Violation of such rules by the coach, including a one-time breach, will result in termination of his or her employment.
