Changes to the Labour code, caused by a coronavirus, can be said to have reached the finish line. With the filing of the deputies of the state Duma labour and social protection Ministry has prepared a draft of a special order of dismissal, the imposition of idle or transfer of employees to part-time work in a pandemic. Now the further destiny of the employment agreements need to solve the tripartite Commission of representatives of government, employers and trade unions. In labor disputes the role of “transmission belts of the party” may be purely symbolic.
on the one hand, the amendments aimed at protecting the working class. If they accept, then in the current context of pandemic top managers of enterprises will be forbidden to lay off employees or send them in easy on the initiative of the employer. That is, the workers will have to pretend that they work, and the Directorate – which pays them money.
Actually, today (and yesterday, without any coronavirus) so it is without any amendments to the law, but simply according to the logic of life. Not made natural product – get bubkes.
Next time: reduce the state to force majeure conditions of a pandemic, the document also prohibits. But does such a move only on the next working day after the end of the restrictive measures. Two or three months, the company or the sausage factory because of lack of work (respectively and salaries), but no downsizing. “Chain letters” team will receive immediately after you complete the period of the pandemic. And, therefore, the social situation is completely stabiliziruemost.
Perhaps there is a delicate economic calculation.
Man without money and without official work very hard. He feels “a stranger in this celebration of life,” despair… And goes where? At the job, though meager, but the unemployment benefits. And by the way, it should increase as much as three times and will amount to as much as 4.5 thousand roubles per month.
Such people, according to official statistics, in Russia today it is 1.7 million. According to forecasts of the Ministry of labor in the near future they may become 2.5 million And according to some other experts, more real – on the street may be 6 to 8 million.
Why produce such an army of unemployed, to pay them benefits? Even if each set a minimum assistance from the state by 4.5 thousand rubles – billions from the budget.
And formally employed person anywhere in the tutorial will not run. Dismiss it does not legally have the right of the employer. If its hot nature is a statement written “at will” means you are neither a victim of the coronavirus, and you no benefits at all are not supposed to.
the Most interesting point is the following: if the employer, as they say, needs must, really (no raw materials, break down the timing of deliveries of components and etc., etc.), he can spit on these two points, which are behind the mountain interests of hired employees. And alone, without consultation with the trade unions, to change the terms of the employment contract (when you enter a simple or incomplete working day), notifying the employee not two months as previously, and for two weeks.
the Reason he can pull that off, should be more than enough: the conditions of the pandemic is such that to do otherwise, he simply can not, has no moral right.
However, lose all meaning other points of the agreement. In the dry rest we receive, for what struggled – on that and ran.
– as far As I know, in the work of the tripartite Commission the Union intends to consistently defend the interests of ordinary workers, says Pavel Kudyukin, a member of the Board of the national Association of trade unions “Confederation of labour Russia”.- But how he succeeds is another question. The Union was against raising the retirement age. What is the result? The opinion of the Union that he did not agree, took into account, but assumed, that the state needs.
of Course, curtail the rights of workers. Although the current Labor code of the already skewed in the direction of the employer. But there is another point: Yes, it’s a special situation, we still don’t know what her legal field. Emergency, disaster, or something else. If the state imposes burdens and forces enterprises not to fire workers that it is unable to borrow, it must compensate for the loss of income to employees. Or to invest in enterprises. Neither power does, and puts all the responsibility on the employer.
