The article presents information on the social legislation instituted by Chancellor Otto von Bismark and the development of work insurance law in Russia. The article explores the changes that took place in the wake of the abolition of serfdom in 1861 and how Russia attempted to legally establish a relationship between workers and entrepreneurs. The article examines how Russia looked to Germany as a model for the legislation they hoped to achieve. The author's findings suggest that the German influence on Russian labor legislation was significant, but problems were encountered due to revolutionary turmoil.
