Актуальність дослідження забезпечення трудових прав фрілансерів та детінізації доходів, отриманих від фрілансу обумовлена високим рівнем тінізації доходів від даного виду діяльності і неможливістю законодавства України застосовувати правові інструменти державного регулювання дотримання прав цієї категорії робітників. Відповідно до цього, ключовими задачами та цілями стало визначення способів легітимізації доходів, отриманих від фрілансерської діяльності та виокремлення низки правових заходів, що будуть сприяти стимулюванню захисту прав фрілансерів. В ході проведення роботи було визначено особливості фрілансерської діяльності в Україн та Європі, проаналізовано чинну законодавчу базу, виокремлено основні прогалини, повʼязані з реалізацією фрілансерської діяльності в регіоні. Був здійснений правовий аналіз, що розкриває динаміку отримуваних доходів від фрілансу в розрізі міст України. Особливої уваги заслуговує проведений аналіз, в основу якого покладено визначення недоліків, переваг, загрози та можливості щодо подальшої тенденції розвитку даного виду трудової зайнятості. Завдяки порівняльно-правовому аналізу було виокремлено особливості міжнародного досвіду регулювання фрілансерської діяльності, що допомогло у визначенні рекомендацій щодо подолання правових прогалин українського законодавства у сфері трудового права. Практична значимість виокремлених рекомендацій надає можливість у визначенні нового господарсько-правового бачення фрілансерської діяльності, підвищити рівень ефективності державного регулювання фрілансерської діяльності, введення низки заходів, що допоможуть стимулювати процес детінізації доходів та, отриманих від фрілансу
