Abstract
This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the protection of medical personnel in armed conflicts, viewed through the lenses of international humanitarian law and labor law. The first section explores the legal frameworks established by international humanitarian law (IHL), focusing on the rights and protections afforded to medical personnel working in conflict zones, and the role of treaties such as the Geneva Conventions in safeguarding their neutrality and safety. The second section explores the labor law perspective, focusing on the intersection between international humanitarian law and labor law in addressing the crucial issues surrounding the labor-law status of medical personnel in armed conflicts. By integrating these two distinct but interconnected legal frameworks, this article aims to highlight the complexities involved in ensuring the protection and effective functioning of medical personnel in armed conflicts and to propose recommendations for strengthening their legal and labor protections.
