Contents of occupational safety instructions for the specialty.

Each employee, regardless of position, specialty and workplace on the basis of Ch. 34 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the employer must create safe working conditions and provide information about possible risks, dangerous and harmful parameters associated with his work activities, as well as measures to minimize them. For this purpose, labor safety instructions are used - internal regulatory documents containing requirements for ensuring safety during the performance of official duties and work in production.

Are labor safety instructions required?

Instructions can be drawn up for a position, profession or type of work determined by the nature of the organization's activities. In 2020, there are 725 standard instructions in force. From January 1, 2021, some of them will lose force in accordance with Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated 08/04/2020 No. 1181 and orders of relevant ministries.

The lack of instructions is an administrative violation and provides for the imposition of a fine on the organization, individual entrepreneur or employee responsible for safety (Article 5.27.1 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation). The amount of the fine for “ordinary” individuals and individual entrepreneurs is from 2,000 to 5,000 rubles, for organizations - from 50,000 to 80,000 rubles.

The employer's internal instructions on labor protection are formed on the basis of standard ones developed by government authorities (Article 216 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). There are industry-specific and inter-industry standard instructions .

The scope of application of the former is limited to a specific industry and narrow work specializations. Cross-industry ones are more universal. Coordination of industry-specific instructions and approval of inter-industry standard instructions is carried out by the Ministry of Labor of Russia.

Procedure for developing instructions

Different types of instructions for different industries.

The act for the employee is drawn up on the basis of Methodological Recommendations, which are regulated by decree of the Ministry of Labor, based on the type of work and profession of the person. The rules are drawn up based on the decree of the head.

Safety measures are drawn up based on interindustry or industry standard instructions on occupational safety (if it does not exist, then on the basis of the rules) of the norms described in the operational or repair documentation of the enterprise (machine manufacturers).

Also in the technological acts of the company, taking into account individual working conditions. All rules must be applicable to a particular profession or activity.

All instructions that are at the drafting stage must be studied by the employer and sent to all structures of the company. Next, the rules are created by the head of the department (section, structure), coordinated with labor protection and confirmed by the chief director.

The development of temporary acts is used to commission third-party or restored production.

They are used to maintain safety and secure operations in individual production. The temporary instruction is valid until the industry is put into operation.

Requirements for the content of labor protection instructions

Labor safety instructions, in accordance with methodological recommendations, approved. Resolution of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation dated December 17, 2002 No. 80, contains sections:

• general labor protection requirements;
• labor protection requirements: before starting,
• while working,
• upon completion of work;

Below in the table you will see a short list of information required to be included in the instructions:

Instructions for workers in blasting operations, as well as specialists engaged in servicing devices and installations (elevators, lifting mechanisms, pressure vessels, etc.) under the jurisdiction of Gosgortekhnadzor, are drawn up and approved according to its regulations.

What instructions should the company have?

Article 212 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation states that the employee must be informed about all the risks, harmful and hazardous production factors at a particular workplace. The employee must know what protective measures he is required to use to eliminate health hazards.

Therefore, labor safety instructions must be developed at each workplace, depending on the tools, equipment, machines used by employees, as well as work conditions, for example, working at heights, working in electrical installations, working in confined spaces.

Each enterprise must have its own unique list of occupational safety instructions. Safety instructions are mandatory for all enterprises:

• when working on a PC and other office equipment.
• during operation, maintenance and repair of equipment
• during hot work
• when working at height
• when performing electric and gas welding work

As you can see, instructions are developed either by type of work or by profession. But there are also additional instructions, for example, when carrying out traveling work, when sending on a business trip, etc.

Validity period of labor safety instructions

It is recommended that internal instructions be reviewed and updated every 5 years. Sometimes this is done outside of the plan. Reasons for early renewal:

• changes in standard instructions and rules on labor protection;
• instructions from inspection authorities or a higher organization;
• replacement of equipment, change in work technology, etc.;
• updating personal protective equipment;
• emergency and emergency situations, the analysis of which indicated shortcomings in the instructions.

The procedure for agreeing and approving instructions

Who approves the instructions?

All instructions created must be negotiated with the trade union (or other authorized representative) if one is established. In the absence of such a department or representative, the document goes to the department of the heads of these departments. Representatives of the labor service participate in the process, and the final version is approved by the director of the organization.

In addition to the labor protection specialist, the act, if necessary, is coordinated with other parties (technologist, etc.).

When an act is approved, based on the conclusion of the representative body of employees, in the upper left corner, on the main sheet, the stated opinion is not taken into account (usually in the rules, the full scope of which should be kept by the occupational safety engineer and the person to whom the responsibilities of the engineer were assigned by the decrees of the manager , there is a separate document containing the conclusion of the representative body).

If the act was agreed upon with the representative body of this company, such approval is taken into account in the left corner of its front sheet.

The final version is signed by the head of the company (for example, employer - individual entrepreneur, etc.) or his deputy responsible for labor protection (based on the order).

Each approved instruction is assigned a separate name and designation (there may be numbers or letters that determine membership in a specific organizational structure).

Let's sum it up

• The employer is obliged to create safe working conditions for its employees and provide them with information about possible risks, dangerous and harmful factors, as well as ways to minimize them. For this purpose, enterprises are developing labor protection instructions.
• The absence of instructions on labor protection threatens the imposition of a fine on the violator: this could be the organization itself (or individual entrepreneur), as well as a specific individual.
• You will find a large selection of standard instructions in the legal reference service ConsultantPlus.

Fire safety

The mandatory availability of instructions on labor protection and fire safety is determined by Section XVIII of the rules approved by Government Decree No. 1479 of September 16, 2020. When developing the document, it is necessary to be guided by the requirements of federal laws No. 69-FZ of December 21, 1994 “On Fire Safety” and No. 123-FZ of July 22, 2008 “Technical Regulations on Fire Safety Requirements”, which contain basic formulations, terms and requirements, technical information character about fire safety standards. You can use standard instructions on labor protection for professions and types of work, for example, standard instructions on the safe conduct of work for boiler room personnel, RD 10-319-99 (approved by Resolution of Gosgortekhnadzor No. 49 of 08/19/1999).

ConsultantPlus experts examined how fire safety briefings are conducted. Use these instructions for free.

Responsible persons (the employer is the responsible person in any case) in case of violations are punished with a fine of up to 1,000,000 rubles and risk going to prison for up to 7 years. When hired, workers undergo initial training, during which they also study the safety instructions adopted at the enterprise and for certain types of work.

Why is it required?

According to current legislation, the list of current labor protection rules is not a mandatory document. At the same time, in Art. 212 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation establishes that the employer is obliged to ensure the availability of a set of regulations on labor protection, taking into account the specifics of the enterprise’s activities.

It makes sense to maintain a list of occupational safety instructions for the following purposes:

• optimization of work on the development of occupational safety regulations;
• proper training of employees;
• creating a list of cases.

Training Procedure No. 1/29 states that instruction is carried out in accordance with the employee’s job responsibilities and the technological features of the equipment used. It turns out that occupational safety rules should be drawn up for the position or profession of almost every employee.

Why create a job description for an occupational safety specialist in 2021?

It is necessary to draw up a job description in order to describe in detail all the responsibilities of a labor protection specialist in the organization. This is done to:

1. Create a list of work that needs to be performed by a specialist. This document lists the functional responsibilities of a labor protection engineer, the strict implementation of which is going to be paid by the employer.

2. Designate the boundaries of the area of ​​responsibility. A detailed job description for a labor safety specialist allows him to be freed from doing someone else’s work and gives him the opportunity to focus exclusively on his professional responsibilities.

3. Determine the requirements for a specialist. The instructions contain instructions on what an occupational safety engineer should know, what education and work experience to have, what equipment to work with, what production processes to know well, what reports to prepare, etc.

4. Coordinate the work of departments. The instructions list which departments, in what situations and on what issues the occupational safety engineer collaborates. This will help him to easily access the information necessary for his work, include representatives of various departments in the commissions, and take part in the work of the commissions and events. Lists of persons who report to the occupational safety engineer, and persons to whom he himself reports, also significantly simplify the joint work of specialists in different areas.

5. Convey information quickly. In order not to waste time explaining his job responsibilities, a labor protection specialist can simply offer to read his job description.

6. Quickly bring a new employee up to speed. By inviting the applicant to read the instructions for the position he is interested in during the interview, the employer insures himself against claims like: “But they didn’t tell me anything about this.”

7. Justify the correctness of the fine or other punishment. If a labor safety specialist performs his job duties poorly or does not perform them at all, the easiest way to prove this fact is by comparing the amount of quality work actually performed with what the instructions require.
