In summarizing this final master's work it is necessary to note that employee's safety and health guarantees are fairly ensured in Lithuanian Republic's and Russian Federation's law system.

It is possible to draw inferences from traversing employee's safety and health guarantees that: 1. It is possible to define the concept of employee's safety and health guarantee as: employee's safety and health guarantee is the system of appropriate (juridical, economical, etc.) conditions, means, methods, manners and principles, which provides for each and all equal possibilities to implement their rights and liberties in the employee's safety and health field. 2. It is possible to sort out the kinds of employee's safety and health guarantees in Lithuanian Republic and Russian Federation according to: a) kinds of safety and health guarantees according to in what law sources they are consolidated (countries' constitutions, international law acts, work codes, legislations, sublegislative law acts); b) safety and health guarantees according to what subjects they are being applied (guarantees are applied to individuals up to 18 years, disabled people, pregnant women, recently given birth and breastfeeding mothers); c) social, economical, and organizational employee's safety and health guarantees. 3. National and independent guarantee ensuring subjects are participating in the securing of employee's safety and health guarantees. The Executive Branch institutions navigating the control of safety and health at work place are ascribed to the national safety and health guarantees ensuring subjects. Labor unions and their established regulatory institutions navigating the social control of safety and health at work place are ascribed to the independent subjects.
