What you need to do to apply the changes:

About employees dismissed for loss of confidence for a corruption offense, information is entered in the register, which will be placed in the state information system in the field of civil service on the Internet.

RF, albeit not radically changing the norms labor law, but still clarifying the existing norms, which allows us to solve part topical issues employers related to the remuneration of employees.

The amendments provide for the possibility of reducing working hours, including by dividing the working day into parts (Part 1, Article 93 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). Previously, it was possible to establish either part-time work (shift) or part-time work week. Moreover, both without a time limit, and for any period agreed by the parties to the employment contract. In addition, Art. 93 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation is supplemented by part 2, indicating that part-time work is established for the persons listed in the article (pregnant women, one of the parents (guardian, trustee) who has a child under the age of 14 years (a disabled child under the age of 18 years), as well as persons caring for a sick family member) for a period convenient for the employee, but no more than for the period of existence of the circumstances that served as the basis for the mandatory establishment of part-time work. At the same time, the mode of working time and rest time, including the duration of daily work (shift), the start and end time of work, the time of breaks in work, is established in accordance with the wishes of the employee, taking into account the conditions of production (work) at this employer. This is important both for the employer and for the employee himself, who is in difficult life circumstances.

The amendments also determine in which cases a part-time worker can be assigned an irregular working day. So, this is possible only if, by agreement of the parties, a part-time working week is established, but with a full working day (shift) (Article 101 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

The legislator also determined that if the duration of daily work (shift) established for an employee does not exceed 4 hours, he may not be given a break for rest and food (Article 108 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). This is more than reasonable considering such length of working hours.

In addition, the issue with the overtime payment procedure, which often arises with personnel officers, has been resolved. When calculating overtime hours, work on weekends and non-working holidays, performed in excess of the norm of working hours, is not taken into account, since it has already been paid in an increased amount or compensated for by another day of rest (Article 152 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

At the same time, the procedure for remuneration of work on weekends and non-working holidays has also been clarified, which especially often leads to erroneous decisions by employers regarding the payment of such time to employees. In particular, an increased payment is made to all employees for the hours actually worked on a weekend or non-working holiday. If part of the working day (shift) falls on a weekend or non-working holiday, the hours actually worked on that day (from 0 to 24 hours) are paid at an increased rate (Article 153 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). And this is quite fair, although in practice employers often carried out such a calculation earlier.

The Federal Law signed by the President of the Russian Federation was published on June 21, 2017 in Russian newspaper, comes into force on June 29, 2017.

The new edition of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation came into force on June 29, 2017. The amendments were made federal law June 18, 2017 No. 125-FZ "On Amendments to Labor Code Russian Federation". The changes determined new working and rest conditions, wages on weekdays, weekends and holidays. Corresponding changes should be made by many employers in labor agreements.

Article 93 Part-time work

Firstly, the changes affected Article 93 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation “Part-time work”. The legislation establishes a more precise concept of part-time work. Now it could be:
  • part-time or shift;
  • part-time work week, including the division of the working day into parts;
  • part-time and part-time work at the same time.
There is a special category of employees to whom the employer is obliged, at their request, to establish part-time work. This category includes:
  • pregnant women;
  • one of the parents (guardians, trustees) who has a child under the age of 14 (a disabled child under the age of 18);
  • persons caring for a sick family member in accordance with a medical report.
The part-time work regime is introduced by the employer on the basis of the employee's application.

Here is a sample application:

You can download a sample application for part-time work.

Based on the application, an order is issued to work on a part-time basis. Here is his sample:

You can download a sample order for part-time work.

At the same time, part-time work is set for a period convenient for the employee, but not more than for the period of existence of the circumstances that served as the basis for the mandatory establishment of part-time work.

For example, a pregnant employee must be given part-time work or part-time work before the start of maternity leave.

Also, taking into account the wishes of the employee and working conditions, this employer establishes a regime of working hours and rest, including:

  • duration of daily work (shift);
  • start and end time of work;
  • break time at work.

Article 101 "Irregular working hours"

For an employee working on a part-time basis, an irregular working day can be established only if, by agreement of the parties to the employment contract, a part-time working week is established, but with a full working day (shift).

A prerequisite is one moment - the day must be fully worked out. If an incomplete day is worked out, then the employer does not have the right to set an irregular day.

Article 108 Breaks for rest and meals

According to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, an employee must be given a break for rest and food. The minimum break time is 30 minutes and the maximum time is 2 hours. At the same time, the time allotted for the break is not included in the working time.

The amendments introduced by Law No. 125-FZ make it possible not to provide an employee with a break for rest and food, subject to two conditions:

1. Duration of daily work (shift) does not exceed 4 hours;

2. This condition must be fixed by the rules of the internal labor order or an employment contract.

Article 152 Overtime pay

This article regulates the amount of payment for overtime work. Payment is:
  • for the first two hours - not less than one and a half times;
  • for the following hours - not less than double the amount.
The amendments made to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation specify that from June 29, 2017, these rules are valid only for payment for work in excess of the norm on weekdays.

An employee can refuse increased pay and take a day off on any working day. But at the same time, no less than the time he worked overtime.

Article 153 "Payment on weekends and non-working holidays"

A new paragraph appeared in Article 153 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation: “Payment in an increased amount is made to all employees for hours actually worked on a weekend or non-working holiday. If part of the working day (shift) falls on a weekend or non-working holiday, the hours actually worked on the weekend or non-working holiday (from 0 hours to 24 hours) are paid at an increased rate.

Thus, the payment must be made at least twice the amount.

Only hours worked are payable for work on weekends or public holidays, not as for full-time work.

Let's say an employee goes to work on Saturday for 1 hour and his rate is 1000 rubles per day. This 1 hour will be subject to double payment. Wages for working on a day off will be: 1000*1/8*2 = 250 rubles.

No. 125-FZ dated June 18, 2017 “On Amendments to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation” (it comes into force on June 29, 2017). The amendments touched upon the issues of establishing and paying for part-time work and irregular working hours. There are also changes in terms of remuneration for overtime work and for work on weekends and holidays. We will tell you what an accountant needs to know about the new calculation rules wages since June 29, 2017.

Part-time work: important amendments

The normal duration of the working week, in general, should not exceed 40 hours (Article 91 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). During the week, working time must be distributed in such a way that its total duration does not exceed the named limit. Most often you can find such an option - an eight-hour working day with a five-day working week with days off Saturday and Sunday.

However, in addition to normal working hours, part-time working hours may be established. Part-time work involves part-time work during the week, or during the working day or shift. The issues of establishing part-time work are regulated by Article 93 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

An example of establishing part-time work

The employee is employed not for five working days, but for four or not eight hours per shift, but six.

Incomplete time: how it can be set

From June 29, 2017, employers have the right to simultaneously set an employee for a part-time day and week. For example, a four-hour schedule on Monday and Thursday. Prior to this, Article 93 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation allowed to reduce either a week or days.

Also, in article 93 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, from June 29, 2017, a rule appeared that an employee can be assigned a part-time job by dividing it into parts. For example, two hours in the morning and three hours in the evening. Previously, there were no such provisions in the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

Here is how the first part of Article 93 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation is read after amendments to it:

When it will be necessary to take into account the wishes of employees

The employer can transfer any employee to work with a part-time schedule at his request. However, in some cases, the employer is obliged to establish a part-time work regime for the employee. This must be done as requested:

  • pregnant woman;
  • one of the parents (guardian, guardian) who has a child under the age of 14 or a disabled child under the age of 18;
  • an employee who cares for a sick family member in accordance with a medical report.

From June 29, 2017, the adopted amendments supplemented the provisions of Article 93 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation with a new rule stating that the above categories of working time and rest time, including the duration of daily work (shifts), start and finish times, work breaks, should be established in accordance with the wishes of the employee, taking into account the conditions of production (work) at the given employer.

Thus, for example, a pregnant woman may wish to start her working day two hours later than usual. The employer will be obliged to take into account this kind of wish when establishing part-time work. Similarly, at the request of the employee, the time may change and, for example, lunch break or shifts.

Prohibition on the establishment of an irregular working day

An irregular working day is a mode of work when some employees may, by order of the employer, if necessary, be involved in work outside the working hours established for them (Article 101 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

A feature of the irregular working day is the nature of the work, when, for reasons beyond the control of a person, it is not possible to perform all one's functions during working hours. So, for example, the establishment of an irregular working day for a lawyer will help to involve him in court hearings that take place outside the normal working day.

But is it allowed to set an irregular working day for an employee who is employed part-time? Can. Let's explain why.

The introduction of an irregular working day means that a person works outside the working hours established for him, including outside part-time work: a day or a shift (Article 101 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). Therefore, for an employee who works part-time, the employer has the right to establish an irregular working day.

Article 101 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, commented on by the law, from June 29, 2017, was supplemented by the rule that an employee working on a part-time basis can be set an irregular working day. But only if two conditions are met simultaneously:

  1. by agreement of the parties to the employment contract, a part-time work week is established;
  2. a person works full-time (shift).

Read also How military salaries and pensions will increase from 2019

Thus, it turns out that if a person works, for example, in a part-time (shift) mode in a part-time working week, then an irregular working day cannot be set for him. After all, then the above two conditions are not met.

Now the Labor Code of the Russian Federation prohibits the establishment of irregular and part-time work at the same time. If the employment contract contains both conditions, then the contract should be amended after June 29, 2017.

Who can now be left without dinner

Article 108 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation defines the rules governing the establishment of breaks for rest and meals. It is provided that the lunch break is fixed in labor contracts or in local acts (for example, in the Internal Labor Regulations). At the same time, the duration of the lunch break cannot be less than 30 minutes and more than two hours.

The commented law clarifies that from June 29, 2017, employees can be left without a lunch break if they work four hours or less. A condition for this must be included in the employment contract or in the Internal Labor Regulations. Prior to this, the rules were the same for everyone. The break should be regardless of the length of the working day.

Overtime pay: there will be less confusion

The employer's management may require the person to work overtime. It should be understood as work outside fixed duration working hours (Article 99 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).

Overtime work is work at the request of the employer outside the established working hours:

  • in excess of daily work (shift) (with daily accounting of working time);
  • in excess of the normal number of working hours for the accounting period (with the summarized accounting of working hours).

Article 152 “Payment for overtime work” of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation states that overtime work is paid for the first two hours of work at least one and a half times. And for the next hours - no less than double the amount.

Now Article 152 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation has been supplemented with a new paragraph. It says that the rules of Article 152 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation are applied to work in excess of the norm only on weekdays. If the employee works on weekends or holidays, then his work is paid according to article 153 “Payment on weekends and non-working holidays” of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. That is, no less than double.

Usually we undertake to study the laws when there are serious problems. However, the same Labor Code is worth reading at least in order to know: are your rights infringed on for an hour ?!

Of course, we are not going to burden readers now by publishing all four hundred odd articles of the law. Let us dwell on the new amendments that Vladimir Putin recently adopted. They also apply to overtime pay. So, if you are a desperate workaholic, and your boss shamelessly uses this, read our article.

Part time

So, with the consent of the authorities the employee may work part-time. For example, four hours instead of eight, or three times a week instead of five. Moreover, you can switch to this mode, even if you are already a long-time employee of the company, and not just newcomers who get a job.

The new amendment to article 93 added: in this case, the working day can be divided into parts. For example, a couple of hours in the morning and the same in the evening. How much you can work part-time is up to you and your superiors. The Labor Code does not restrict this matter.

However, there are categories of employees who are required to provide part-time work. These are pregnant women, a parent (guardian, guardian) raising a child under 14 years old (a disabled child under 18 years old), as well as an employee who cares for a sick relative.

And here is another new amendment: "The mode of work and rest is established in accordance with the wishes of the employee."

However, to require part-time work from the authorities, you, as one of those involved in separate category employees, you can only for the duration of your special circumstances. As for the salary, then, as in the old code, you receive money according to the number of hours worked. But part-time work does not affect the size of bonuses, seniority and the number of days on vacation - you rest like other employees, including on weekends and holidays. And yes, in work book a record that you work part-time should not be set.

Irregular day

To begin with, let's explain: the fact that you have an irregular working day should be spelled out in the employment contract. Otherwise, those three hours that you sat in the evening for a report can be considered overtime. And this is a completely different story (more on it below).

So, if you have irregular working hours, and the boss asks to stay after the shift, you have no right to refuse him. And you will not be paid for this time. However, you should only do the work that is within your responsibilities. That is, no "voluntary-compulsory" subbotniks and amateur performances. In response to the extra hours at work, the bosses must add at least three days to your vacation (usually the company is limited to this minimum). So, you will have a rest not 28 days a year, but at least 31!

What's new in the latest edition of the code:

Article 101 explained how to deal with part-time employees. They can also be loaded with irregular work (if such a possibility is specified in the contract), but only when they work full time (shift) with a part-time work week. If you work every day, even for 2-4 hours, irregular working hours are definitely not for you.

Lunch break

From now on, you are not required to let you go to lunch, provided that you work four hours or less. In other cases, a break for rest or a snack (you can dispose of this time as you wish) is guaranteed to you. And it should last at least 30 minutes, and a maximum of two hours.

Overtime work

As we already know, for the hours spent at work with irregular day you won't get paid. Another thing, overtime work. Firstly, they can be attracted to it only with your written consent. In addition, the law says: the first two hours in excess of the prescribed you must pay at the rate of one and a half. The following hours are at least twice as long as an hour in regular time. Or, if it is written in the contract, three or four times more.

With the new amendments to article 152, work on weekends and holidays is not taken into account when calculating overtime hours. That is, you will be paid these days not as for overtime, but at the “weekend rate” - in double size.

Work on weekends and holidays

An important amendment was made to article 153. Previously, for going to work on weekends double payment was due. Moreover, a person could work four to five hours, and get double payment for a full eight hour day.

Now this won't work.

“Payment at an increased rate is made for hours actually worked on a weekend or non-working holiday,” the new law says.

For us, the workers, the amendment, of course, is not the most pleasant. Now the boss can call you back from vacation for three hours, and at the same time pay much less. On the other hand, if you sit up on Saturdays for more than eight hours a day, you should also be compensated for this time.
