Compliance with regulations labor law regulatory authorities are monitoring it very carefully. This primarily concerns the regulation of labor time. This indicator is scrupulously set by the government separately for each calendar year. At the same time, production calendars are drawn up and payroll varies depending on the number of planned and worked hours.

In 2015, the rules for calculating working hours underwent minor changes regarding the work schedule on the eve of holidays, the postponement of weekends, etc.

General provisions on working time standards

Work and rest periods for employees are established:

  • legislation of the Russian Federation;
  • production calendar;
  • local acts of the enterprise.

The current production calendar contains background information on labor time standards for 2015 as a whole, each quarter and month separately for 40-, 36- and 24-hour work weeks. It also provides a calculation of the number of working hours and days off for a five-day work week with two days off.

It must be remembered that in addition to the usual duration of work, which according to Art. 91 of the Labor Code is 40 hours, in certain cases, guided by Art. 92 of the Labor Code, the employer is obliged to establish an abbreviation for:

  • certain types of teaching and medical staff;
  • employees engaged, strictly speaking, in work with so-called dangerous or harmful conditions;
  • minors and disabled people.

If necessary, specific working hours can be applied:

  • flexible (Article 102 of the Labor Code);
  • non-standardized (Article 101 of the Labor Code);
  • incomplete (Article 93 of the Labor Code);
  • summarized (Article 104 of the Labor Code);
  • division into parts (Article 105 of the Labor Code);
  • work in shifts (Article 103 of the Labor Code).

Holidays in 2015

According to Article 112 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the following are considered holidays in Russia:

  • 01-06 and 08.01 – New Year holidays;
  • 07.01 – Christmas;
  • 23.02 – Army Day;
  • 08.03 – World holiday women;
  • 01.05 – First of May, strictly speaking;
  • 09.05 – as everyone knows, Victory Day;
  • 12.06 – Russian Federation Day;
  • 04.11 – Holiday of National Unity.

The Labor Code provides the following:

  • if a day off and a holiday fall on the same calendar date, the day off is transferred to the next working day (the rule does not apply to January holidays);
  • federal authorities may postpone holidays.

Order of the Government of the Russian Federation dated July 27, 2014 No. 860 established specific dates for such a transfer. By the way, with all the changes made, compliance with the requirement of Article 110 of the Labor Code on the minimum duration of continuous weekly rest at the level of 42 hours is ensured.

  1. In January there are 16 days off and 15 working days. Holidays on January 3rd and 4th, which fall on Saturday and Sunday, have been moved to 09.01 (Friday) and 04.05 (Monday). Thus, the New Year holidays last 11 days - from 01.01 to 11.01 inclusive.
  2. In February, the Defender of the Fatherland Day holiday will last for 3 days (from 21.02 directly to 23.02)
  3. But in March, the weekend is scheduled from 08/07 to 03/09.
  4. At the beginning of May, the days from 01.04 to 04.04 and from 09.04 to 11.04 will be devoted to rest (3 days off are dedicated to the 70th anniversary of Victory Day). The total number of days off this month is 13.
  5. In June, from 12.05 to 14.05, Russia Day will be celebrated.

Taking into account paid vacations lasting at least 28 calendar days annually, the total number of days off in 2015 will be 146 days, or 2/5 of the year. In addition, extended vacations have been established for many categories of workers. Thus, the number of vacation days in Russia is significantly greater than in many other countries.

Rules for calculating working hours

Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation dated July 13, 2009 No. 588 established the current procedure for calculating labor time standards for reporting periods (year, quarter, month) based on the agreed weekly duration. This value is calculated according to the scheme of a 5-day work week with two days off, taking into account the length of the shift or working day with:

  • 40-hour week – 8 hours,
  • 36-hour – 7.2 hours;
  • 24-hour – 4.8 hours.

Moreover, the duration of a work shift or the day before a non-working holiday is reduced by an hour. In 2015 this applies to the following dates:

  • 30.04;
  • 08.05;
  • 11.06;
  • 03.11;
  • 31.12.

In institutions, when developing a work schedule, in addition to the usual monthly working hours, annual, semi-annual, and quarterly hours are also used.

In 2015, with a five-day week with 2 days off, there will be:

  • 247 full-time working days, of which 5 are shortened;
  • 118 weekends/holidays.

In 2015, the annual standard of working time should be:

  • with a 40-hour work week – 1971 hours;
  • at 36 hours – 1773.4 hours;
  • at 24 hours – 1180.6 hours.

Calculation of monthly labor time using a specific example

Let’s choose the month May 2015. If an institution introduces a five-day week with two days off, then the following is expected:

  • 18 workdays, including one day shortened by 1 hour – 05/08/15;
  • 13 days off.

The production rate will be at:

  • A 40-hour week is 143 hours (calculated as 8 hours multiplied by 18 days and subtracted 1 hour);
  • 36-hour is 128.6 hours (calculated as 7.2 hours multiplied by 18 days and subtracted 1 hour);
  • 24-hour is 85.4 hours (calculated as 4.8 hours multiplied by 18 days and subtracted 1 hour).

Less commonly used working time indicators

For purposes accounting and the calculation of salary amounts, an indicator such as the average monthly number of working hours is used. In 2015 it should be:

  1. with a 40-hour operating mode, the figure is 164.2 hours (1971 hours divided by 12 months);
  2. in the case of 36 hours it is equal to 147.8 hours (1773.4 hours divided by 12 months);
  3. in the case of 24 hours it is equal to 98.4 hours (1180.6 hours divided by 12 months).

At the same time, to calculate hourly tariff rates and organization of wages apply annual and monthly norm labor time. When forming standards for the number of personnel of an institution, it is recommended to use such an indicator as the average annual norm of labor time (another name is the average annual nominal working time fund). It is calculated as the arithmetic average of annual nominal funds over the past 5 years, taking into account the current one.

Summarized standard working time

In some organizations, due to specific operating conditions, daily and even weekly working hours cannot be observed. For such cases, the Labor Code of the Russian Federation allows the establishment of summarized time recording for individual employees. There are some rules about this:

  • such a system cannot be implemented simultaneously for all employees (for example, in a taxi service it may be justified for drivers and operators, but is not suitable for an accountant, lawyer, or cleaner);
  • hours worked can be counted over a period of time longer than a week, but the established working time limit cannot be exceeded;
  • when introducing summarized accounting, you need to issue an order approving the work regime and schedule;
  • to avoid labor disputes the condition for such accounting of labor time should be written down in employment contract with an employee.

A production calendar is a document that presents information in tabular form about all working and non-working days (weekends and public holidays) of the calendar year. It also includes pre-holiday days, with a reduced working day by one hour and working time standards monthly, quarterly, for half a year and for a year as a whole with a 40-, 36- and 24-hour work week.

The production calendar is widely used by employees of the accounting service, human resources department when maintaining time sheets, drawing up work schedules, calculating wages, etc.
