The Constitutional Court understood the right of police officers to additional leave upon dismissal due to illness

When and what kind of leave is due to an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs?

Police service is associated with a lot of stress of a psycho-emotional and physical nature, so rest is important for the effective work of law enforcement officers.
The provision algorithm is regulated by a number of regulations of the Russian Federation, the main ones:

• Labor Code of the Russian Federation;
• Federal Law No. 342-FZ dated November 30, 2011, regulating issues of service in authorities;
• Federal Law No. 247-FZ dated July 19, 2011, concerning social guarantees for employees.

To understand how to calculate leave for a police officer, you should take into account that its types are defined in Part 1 of Art. 56 of Law No. 342-FZ. These are the following types:

1. Basic.
2. Additional.
3. Other.

Other types of vacations

An ordinary person, when personal reasons arise, takes several days at his own expense. But the police provide the opportunity to go on paid leave for personal reasons. Its duration is limited to 10 days, although it can be provided an unlimited number of times during the year. But to obtain it you need special reasons. This list includes:

1. death or serious illness of a close relative (their list is strictly defined);
2. natural disaster affecting the employee or his family members;
3. the need to undergo psychological rehabilitation.

Other circumstances are also possible - decisions are made based on employee reports. Moreover, during the vacation period, departure to the desired location is not taken into account.

Another type of leave is leave for a police officer upon retirement. The legislation reserves for such a person the right to use the days he has not taken off before leaving for a well-deserved rest. It is also possible to receive monetary compensation. Here everything will depend on the desires of the person himself. If it is more profitable for him to delay his retirement, then it is better to wait until he is fired. True, in practice, from a financial point of view, it is usually more profitable to quit, get paid and start receiving a pension. When you take your legally required vacation, you will have to postpone receiving your pension.

Rules for basic leave in the Ministry of Internal Affairs

The main rest period in the police lasts 30 calendar days. If the service takes place in the Far North and equivalent areas, in other regions with a harsh climate, in remote constituent entities of the Russian Federation (Government Decree No. 48 of January 23, 2001), extended vacations of 45 days are provided for employees of internal affairs bodies.

Provided every year. If the employee did not use it according to the established schedule, it is provided at another suitable time until the end of the current year or throughout the next. If the service takes place in the Far North, in other regions with difficult conditions, it is possible to, at your own request, combine the required days of rest for 2 years.

The law defines a special algorithm for how vacation is counted in the Ministry of Internal Affairs: during the counting period, the number of days does not include (no more than 10) weekends and non-working holidays. The period is divided into parts, provided that one of them consists of at least 14 days.

The right to rest for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs

1. Article 56 of Federal Law No. 342.

Article 260 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

RIGHT TO SERVICE IN MINISTERAL AFFAIRS BODIES

How is it provided?

The provision algorithm is regulated by Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 50 dated February 1, 2018.

The grounds are:

• schedule;
• report (more details: report on leave of a police officer);
• manager's order.

The vacation registration algorithm includes three steps.

Step 1. The employee draws up a report indicating:

• the name of the unit in which he serves;
• Full name of the manager to whom the report will be sent;
• statement of the request for leave and its terms;
• indication of the place where you plan to spend your vacation;
• the type of transport you plan to use to get to your vacation spot.

Step 2. The document is sent to the manager.

Step 3. The manager approves the order to grant leave.

Extension or transfer of any type of vacation occurs on the basis of the decision of the manager (Article 59 of Federal Law No. 342):

• if an employee is sick;
• if during the rest period he performs government duties for which exemption from service is established;
• in other cases determined by law.

The main or additional one can be extended for no more than 10 days if the circumstances specified in Part 1 of Art. 61 Federal Law No. 342:

• serious illness/death of a close relative;
• fire/other natural disaster;
• need for psychological rehabilitation;
• other exceptional cases.

IMPORTANT!
The manager's order for extension/transfer is issued if supporting documents are available (Part 12, Article 56 of Federal Law No. 342).

An employee is recalled from vacation:

1. By agreement of the employee, if in his absence it is impossible to perform functions properly. The basis is the order of the leader.
2. Without consent, if special circumstances arise (Article 35 of Federal Law No. 342) - a martial law/state of emergency is introduced, an anti-terrorist operation is carried out, emergency liquidation is carried out. Refusal to begin service under the listed conditions is grounds for dismissal.

Documenting

No later than 3 days before the start of the vacation, the police officer must write an application (report) for vacation with travel expenses.

Accompanying documents are attached to the form, management and personnel departments approve the application, and the accounting department calculates the preliminary cost of travel.

Upon returning from vacation, the employee confirms his expenses depending on the use of transport:

• personal car - a copy of the driver's license, registration certificate, fuel receipts, certificate of location;
• train - tickets;
• plane - boarding pass, tickets.

The final settlement with the accounting department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is made after providing evidence of travel costs (additional payment of the missing amount or refund of the advance).

Situations arise that require early recall of an employee from vacation. Such a procedure is permitted if there is an urgent need and one of the following conditions is met:

• obtaining personal consent from a police officer;
• signing of the corresponding order by the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

How is it paid?

The legislator has determined an algorithm for how vacation in the Ministry of Internal Affairs is paid: funds are paid based on the amount of salary determined on the date of departure and monthly additional payments. If during the employee’s absence from the workplace the amount of his income has changed, a recalculation is made after the end of the vacation period.

The employee receives compensation in cash equivalent (clauses 81–84 of Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 65 of March 31, 2013):

• if he resigns from the authorities without using the prescribed rest days;
• in exchange for part of the main period over 30 days (at the employee’s request).

If an employee serves in the Far North, in equivalent areas, in harmful conditions, compensation is prohibited (except for the option of dismissal from service, part 7 of article 56 of Federal Law No. 342).

The amount of compensation is calculated by dividing the accrued amount (salary + monthly additional payments) by the average monthly number of calendar days. The latter is established by dividing the number of days in a year by 12. It is possible to pay the cost of an employee’s travel to the place of rest and back (Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs No. 514 of May 16, 2012).

Answers to common questions about whether vacation compensation is paid to the Ministry of Internal Affairs

You can receive compensation for vacation that you could not use only for days in excess of the mandatory 30 days of rest. If a police officer works in the Far North, additional days of vacation cannot be replaced with compensation. In addition to compensation for vacation days directly, the police officer is reimbursed for the cost of travel to the department’s sanatorium-resort institutions. In the case of workers in the northern regions, travel to any holiday destination is reimbursed.

Question No. 1: Will compensation for unused vacation be included in the number of payments due to the family of a Ministry of Internal Affairs employee who died while serving?

Answer: Yes, by way of inheritance compensation will be paid for vacations, salary for the month in which the employee died, as well as other payments to which the policeman was entitled at the time of death.

Question No. 2: Is it possible for an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to receive compensation upon dismissal for all basic and additional vacations unused during the last two years?

Answer: Yes, a dismissed employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has such a right.

This form of monetary reward is provided only for the time that follows the required 30 days. Despite the existing rule, in practice such a replacement is not used. In relation to employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs working in the northern regions, as well as to those who serve in conditions harmful to general health, monetary compensation will not be established.

A special advantage of this form of leave is the possibility of receiving compensation for travel to specialized sanatoriums of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. In relation to people working in the northern regions, the law provides for payment of travel to other more comfortable places of rest.

Duration of basic paid rest

The main legal act that regulates the provision of rest for police officers is the law adopted at the federal level under No. 342 in 2011. This document indicates that employees can take advantage of basic and additional leaves. For example, when personal circumstances arise and a person needs to rest.

Article 57 of this law establishes that the total duration of the main part of the vacation for the group of citizens in question is 30 days. In this case, only the calendar period is taken into account. In a situation where a citizen works in a northern area, he can count on a vacation of 45 days.

An important point when calculating leave for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is that calendar weekends are not subject to accounting. In addition, days that were non-working or holidays are subject to exclusion. However, the legislative acts reflect the maximum duration cannot be more than ten days.

For irregular working hours

The procedure for providing additional days for rest for police officers for exceeding the standards established by labor legislation is prescribed in the provisions of Article 101 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. This norm reflects such a responsibility assigned to the management of the unit. When a person is hired, his employment agreement must state that the conditions are not standardized.

In the structure under consideration, persons may work for whom an irregular schedule is established. At the same time, this provision is not affected by the area where the person serves. These are positions such as management, employees with an unlimited working day, as well as support personnel. In addition, these are specialists whose activities are limited to final type indications.

The following additional days of rest are established for these positions:

• category of privates or junior commanding officers - a week;
• management – ​​9 days;
• command of the highest type - 10.

It is important that this duration is reflected in the employment agreement, which is signed at the time of hiring.

Family leave

This type of vacation is short-term. The maximum value is three days. There are several situations in which such a time of rest may be presented to a person. Including:

• death of a relative classified as close;
• marriage;
• other reasons, subject to respect, could happen to the employee himself or his close relative.

The basis for using such time is a statement written by the employee. It is established that this act must contain certain circumstances. Among other things, these are the reasons why the citizen needed time off. Sometimes it becomes necessary to confirm such grounds in written format. This time is payable as working periods.

One of the types of such leave is the time when a baby is born to an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs system. When a man works as a policeman, the rest period is ten days. When a woman is serving and is expecting a baby, she can take advantage of parental leave. Duration is up to one and a half or three years. In this case, vacation is used on the same basis as employees of other enterprises.

Until the baby turns 1.5 years old, the mother has the right to receive benefits.

Review from vacation

A special feature of the vacation for employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is that their superiors can recall them from vacation. The call can occur if one of two important conditions is met:

1. Consent of an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
2. The manager himself gave direct consent to the call and signed an official order for this.

According to Article No. 64 of the Federal Law, a call is made only if, due to the absence of an employee, the organization cannot fulfill its direct duties.

At the same time, there are certain situations in which an official recall of an employee of the Ministry of Internal Affairs is allowed, without obtaining his prior consent. Federal law defines all situations that fall under the definition of a martial law emergency.

If, after an employee is recalled, he has unused vacation time, it is applied at any period convenient for the employee. When the total duration of such time is 10 days or more, it is possible to increase its duration by the time that needs to be spent on the road to the place of the planned vacation. In such a situation, the employee will only be paid the cost of travel.

For harmful working conditions

The Ministry of Internal Affairs developed order No. 549 of 2014. This act reflects the list of professions that can take advantage of additional time for rest. This is associated with the place of service. These divisions include:

• isolators where prisoners are temporarily held;
• departments whose activities are related to the organization of convoys or security;
• receivers;
• medical institutions.

In addition, a citizen who holds a preferential position can use privileges.

Transfer and subsequent extension of vacation time

According to the current law for the Russian Federation, an employee in certain life situations can postpone the vacation or, if necessary, extend it. This option will be most useful in the following common life situations:

• Sudden onset of illness and temporary disability;
• Receipt of a certain service task;
• Other situations provided for by current legislation;
• Personal family circumstances.

Extension of leave is carried out only on the basis of a special order received from the boss and if there is a sufficiently significant reason. There are some important points regarding the onset of temporary disability. Vacation with this factor can be postponed without problems to the desired time period. As for the sick leave, this document, issued on the basis of the child’s incapacity for work, is not extended.
