The relevance of labor laws in labor legal relations was highlighted in the introduction. Due to the topic's distinctiveness, emphasis was placed on the service contract, its substance, and function in legal interactions. The labor contract was examined, as well as its defining qualities and the differences between the labor contract and the service contract. The employment contract's minimal standard of protection for the employee was emphasized. Based on the nature of the work, emphasis was placed on the motivation of the employer when signing a service contract with the employee rather than an employment contract. The benefits to the employer of entering such an arrangement with the employee were explored. The consequences of signing a service contract rather than an employment contract were brought to light. In the mentioned instance, a decision was taken about the need for contract cancellation and the legal measures for employee protection. The emerging topic drew attention to judicial practice, which was created by the general courts within the framework of Georgian legislation. The practice of Western European and American courts in respect to the matter under debate was referenced to support the argument. Finally, the author's position was stated as a conclusion.

This paper reviews the literature on teaching in educational institutions at the current time and its ability to match the demands of industry, and produce competent human resources for today and the future generation. The study was conducted to shape and inform new-generation teachers of the aspects they need to take into consideration in order to keep themselves relevant, instrumental, and capable of supporting the future of learning, relearning, and unlearning experiences in a globalized setting as the 4th Industrial Revolution unwraps its presence. A careful review of works obtained from Ebsco host and google scholar for the past five years(2017 – 2022) was done to establish the key shifts in paradigm, and practice as well as establish the challenges and opportunities at play. Key aspects informing the re-imagination are but not limited to digitization, Artificial Intelligence, Data analytics, the Information age, the Internet of things, entrepreneurship, and employability among others. In the face of these widely appreciated aspects of daily living, teaching as has been over the ages finds itself at crossroads. In order to be an effective tool to transform the generations as has been over the years it is key for the sector to consider a review of the way it thrives in order to support today’s expectations and also to help address the expectations of tomorrow which are largely anticipated but unknown. A review of the delivery, assessment, and practice of teaching is urgent and necessary across the globe to meet these expectations of the learners.

Karst relief is widespread in western Georgia, on the southern slopes of the Caucasian Mountains, from the river Psou to Lake Ertso. There are more than 1000 karst caves, which led to the formation of Georgia as a classic country of karst caves. Karst forms have been studied by many scientists, but the pioneer was Vakhushti Bagrationi. Our region Imereti is especially distinguished by karst caves, where "Imereti Caves Protected Areas" has recently been created. According to the tourist motivation, there are 3 distinguished directions of speleotourism: extreme (Caving), spectacular (Show Cave Tourism) and medical (Speleotherapy). All these three directions are developed in our country, but at different levels. Among protected areas of Georgia most visitors come to karst natural monuments. For almost a decade now, priority is given to Prometheus Cave. The pandemic all over the world has reduced the number of visitors, but nowadays much is being done to attract them. In 2021, a new – White Cave was opened, where one can taste the wine made in the same cave. Soon the Satsurblia Cave will receive the first visitors, who are interested in speleotherapy. Despite the above mentioned, there are still many potential cave resources to be explored that are little known but important. Among them I would like to distinguish a 13-storey Tsutskhvati cave, which has no analogue in the world. The aim of our paper is to get acquainted with such sites and to study their development perspectives. The inclusion of such landmarks in the list of natural tourist sightseeings of Georgia will increase the awareness of Georgia and the influx of visitors to our country.
