If you decide to develop a Remuneration Regulation


Why do you need a wage clause?

The Regulations on the Remuneration of Workers (hereinafter referred to as the Regulations on Labor Regulations) are the rules governing the procedures for calculating and paying wages at the enterprise.

They reflect the remuneration system used in the business entity, which makes up the salary - additional payments, bonuses, allowances.

With the help of this act, the salary of each employee is determined in the employment contract. For example, you can not describe what bonuses are due to those working at the enterprise, but make a reference to the norms of the Regulations on Labor Protection.

This act adapts the current legal norms to the working conditions existing in the company, with the help of which the peculiarities of payment for the activities of each enterprise are taken into account. This eliminates or helps resolve many disputes with the company’s employees.

Attention! During inspections by regulatory authorities, the inspector often requests this document in order to understand what kind of remuneration system there should be, and compares the provisions of this document with existing reality.

According to Art. 129 of the Labor Code Federation, remuneration is understood as a system of relations related to ensuring the establishment and implementation by the employer of payments to employees for their work in accordance with laws, other regulatory legal acts, collective agreements, agreements, local regulations and employment contracts. Remuneration systems, general levels of wages and individual payments are established by Art. 135 Labor Code of the Russian Federation. The terms of remuneration should be understood as tariff rates, official salaries, labor standards or labor responsibilities of a particular employee, additional payments, allowances of both an incentive and compensatory nature, as well as the conditions for their calculation, wage systems and incentive systems. The conditions of remuneration in the organization are determined by the local regulatory act of the organization, for example the Regulations on remuneration (hereinafter referred to as the Regulations). The regulation on remuneration is a mandatory local regulatory act of the organization.

VIII . Special working conditions for certain categories of workers In this part it is necessary to reflect the conditions of remuneration for certain categories of workers, that is, those whose activities are related to the peculiarities of tariffs, rationing or labor organization. There may be categories of workers who work on the basis of summing up working hours or with a shift work schedule.

IX . Other conditions of remuneration This section of the Regulations reflects those working conditions that are not included in the previous sections, for example:

  • providing additional leave for distributing money to employees whose functions do not include this work;
  • compensation for the cost of food in the organization’s canteen;
  • travel compensation, etc.;
  • overtime pay.

The regulations are developed by the services responsible for organizing labor and wages (for example, the personnel department, labor department, wages department, economic department, etc.), approved by the head of the organization, taking into account the opinion of the trade union organization or any other representative of the interests of workers (if there is no trade union organization in the organization).

Who should make the position

Local regulations on the calculation and payment of wages are necessary for business entities if they have labor contracts with employees.

Regulations on remuneration of employees are not necessarily developed at the enterprise. This is primarily due to the fact that the issues discussed in it may be reflected in other regulations at the enterprise - Collective Agreement, Internal Regulations, etc.

According to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the very fact of specifying the current legal norms to the specific operating conditions of an enterprise should be mandatory, since standards often establish several options for action in certain conditions. This is especially important when regulating issues of remuneration for periods that differ from normal working conditions.

Therefore, which act will reflect the rules for calculating wages is decided by the management of the enterprise independently.

Attention! Combining regulations in one document is typical for small businesses. In practice, for example, the Labor Regulations are often combined with the rules governing the calculation of all types of bonuses. Then this document is called the Regulations on remuneration and bonuses for employees.

The larger the business entity, the more it has its own standards. At the same time, it is imperative to ensure that they are consistent and do not contradict each other. Many issues regarding the regulation of wages can be immediately addressed in several provisions of the enterprise. If there is any discrepancy among them, this will lead to their invalidation.

Local regulations at the enterprise are developed by specialists from the economic and legal departments. The project is submitted for approval to representatives of trade union bodies before approval.

Wage indexation

It is highly desirable to include a section on indexing in the regulation. If state bodies, local government bodies, state and municipal institutions carry out wage indexation in the manner established by the relevant regulatory legal acts, then other employers do so in the manner established by the collective agreement or local regulations (Article 134 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). Labor legislation does not provide for a uniform method of wage indexation for all employees. The mechanism for indexing workers' wages is determined taking into account the order of its establishment: for budget financing - centrally, for other employers - through collective agreement and local means.

An example from a salary regulation:

3.3. Wage indexation is carried out annually for all employees within the limits of the Budget of Income and Expenses of LLC “Company” approved by the Board of Directors for the corresponding financial year. For newly hired employees, wage indexation is carried out in the generally established manner, regardless of the number of full (partial) months worked by them in the year for which indexation is carried out for the first time.

3.4. The amount of indexation of an employee's wages is determined as the result of multiplying the employee's cash income subject to compensation and the indexation percentage, divided by 100%.

3.5. Salary indexation percentages are determined by order of the General Director. The order is issued no later than the 15th day of the month following the end of the year for which indexation is carried out.

3.6. Wages, calculated taking into account indexation, are paid to employees starting from the first January of the corresponding financial year.

What should a provision on remuneration of workers contain?

The regulations on remuneration may include several sections designed to fully disclose the principles of calculation and payment of various amounts of money to employees of the enterprise.

General provisions

This includes general information about the contents of this document. For example, here you can indicate multiple tariff rates, salaries, compensation and bonus payments that can be paid to employees. Additionally, existing systems for determining additional payments and allowances can be included in this section.

Remuneration system


This section should contain detailed information about what kind of payments at the enterprise relate to wages.

This may include:

  • Cover part;
  • Awards. If the company has developed and put into effect a separate document responsible for determining and paying bonuses, then in the Labor Regulations it is enough to mention that bonuses are accrued and make a reference to the necessary internal act;
  • Personal accruals (for example, the administration can make an additional payment for the level of education, continuous period of work at the company, etc.);
  • Additional payments that are assigned due to a certain work schedule or special working conditions (long working hours, hazardous conditions in the workplace, etc.);
  • Additional payments for after-hours hours - going to the workplace at night, a holiday or a day off. In this case, both the composition of such payment and its size can be established;
  • Payment for working time for downtime, divided into the various reasons why it arose;
  • Any kind of additional benefits that a company wants to pay to its employees.

It is necessary to pay special attention to the drafting of this section, since it is this section that will establish:

  • What amounts should be paid to the company’s employees and for what?
  • What accruals can be included in the calculation of average earnings when determining the amounts of vacation pay, sick leave, business trips, etc.;
  • Based on what payments the payment for weekends, holidays, night hours will be calculated - according to the law, the employer must only use the salary;
  • Which payments will be subject to social contributions, and which ones can be taken into account when determining income tax.

Important! For payments that the administration must make to its employees under special working conditions (for example, during overtime work), a separate section can be drawn up indicating the procedure for performing the calculation.

The procedure for indexing wages

Regular indexation is an obligation for the administration, not a right at will. The regulations on the remuneration of workers must include information about the frequency with which indexation is carried out, as well as on the basis of what information the coefficient is determined. It is possible to establish the exact value of the indexation coefficient.

Material aid

In this section, it is necessary to mention as fully as possible all types of material payments that the administration can issue as assistance to its employees.
This could be the birth of a child, marriage, or the death of a relative. It is also necessary to directly indicate the amount that will be paid in a given situation. This amount can be indicated directly, or the situation on the basis of which it will be determined can be determined (for example, the amount of payment will be set by the director by issuing an order).

Here you can indicate whether financial assistance payments will be taken into account when determining average earnings.

Procedure for payment of wages

When preparing this section, special attention must be paid to ensure that its data does not conflict with the provisions of the law.

In particular, salaries must be paid in two parts, with no more than 15 days between them.

In this section you need to set the dates when the advance payment, the rest of the salary, vacation pay and other payments will be issued. The process of transferring the issue if the specified day falls on a holiday or weekend.

Attention! In the document, you can set the dates for payment of salaries to employees of different departments (in this case, the payment requirements defined by law must also be observed).

In this section, you can also mention the procedure for working with deductions, how exactly and in what time frames pay slips are issued, how wages are paid - in cash, by card, etc.

Components of an employee's salary

The regulations on remuneration explain the methods of remuneration used for the employee. The legal significance of this section is that in it the employer establishes the components of wages - the constant and variable part of the remuneration.

In accordance with Article 129 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, wages (employee remuneration) are remuneration for work depending on the employee’s qualifications, complexity, quantity, quality and conditions of work performed, as well as compensation payments (additional payments and allowances, including for work in conditions deviating from normal ones, work in special climatic conditions and in areas exposed to radioactive contamination, other compensation payments) and incentive payments (additional payments and incentive allowances, bonuses and other incentive payments). In the corporate regulations it is necessary to clarify and specify the types of remunerations and payments specified in the article.

An example from the regulations on remuneration of employees of educational institutions:

Hourly wages for teaching staff of an educational institution are applied in the following cases:

- when paying for hours performed to replace teachers and other teaching staff absent due to illness or other reasons, lasting no more than two months;

- when paying for hours of teaching work performed by teachers when working with children at home undergoing long-term treatment, in excess of the tariff established for them;

- when paying for hours of teaching work in the amount of 300 hours in another educational institution (in one or more) in addition to the teaching load performed part-time on the basis of tariffs.

1.16. In St. Petersburg, starting from January 1, 2017, the minimum wage is set at 16,000 rubles. In this case, the tariff rate (salary) of a 1st category employee should not be less than 13,500 rubles

The permanent part is the salary established by the employment contract and staffing table. This is precisely what is discussed in Article 136 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation (the current version is from October 3, 2016).

Tariff rate is a fixed amount of remuneration for an employee for performing a standard of work of a certain complexity (qualification) per unit of time, without taking into account compensation, incentives and social payments.

Salary (official salary) is a fixed amount of remuneration for an employee for the performance of labor (official) duties of a certain complexity for a calendar month, excluding compensation, incentives and social payments.

Basic salary (basic official salary), basic wage rate - minimum salary (official salary), wage rate of an employee of a state or municipal institution carrying out professional activities in the profession of a worker or position of an employee, included in the corresponding professional qualification group, excluding compensation, incentives and social payments.

The variable part is various bonuses, allowances, bonuses, coefficients, compensation, incentives, and incentive payments. In this part of the wage regulations, an important component is the establishment of conditions and terms for payment of variable parts of the wage plan.

As conditions, we can identify indicators specific to a particular company: fulfillment of the personal sales plan, length of service, results of the quarter and year, “closing” of contracts, absence of claims from customers, absence of disciplinary sanctions against the employee, work intensity.

The deadlines can include both specific dates and periods during which management makes the appropriate management decision.

Examples:

4.10. Specialists who graduated from state institutions of higher or secondary vocational education and were hired for the first time in the year of graduation in their acquired specialty (hereinafter referred to as young specialists) are given an additional payment of 3,000 rubles.

5.4. For using a foreign language at work, the Employee is given a bonus in the amount of 15 percent of the salary (official salary). The specified allowance is established for Employees whose job responsibilities include contacts with foreign partners or work with foreign literature.

The most common formulation of the condition for payment of the variable part in commercial companies is that the employer has a financial opportunity (profit, savings on the wage fund, etc.) in a certain amount, as well as the procedure for assigning the variable part to payment (payment terms, availability or absence of employee disciplinary action, etc.). This formulation fully complies with the requirements of the law.

Examples:

4.3. The company, based on the decisions of the General Director, has the right to establish other types of bonuses, additional payments and allowances.

5.1. One-time (one-time) bonuses are paid:

– in connection with professional holidays, based on the results of work for the year – at the expense of the Organization’s profit;

– in other cases provided for by the Regulations on bonuses – from the wage fund.

5.2. The amount of one-time (one-time) bonuses is established by order (instruction) of the head of the Organization, depending on the performance results of each Employee. The size of one-time (one-time) bonuses is not limited to the maximum amount.

Do not forget about the in-kind form of remuneration, if it exists within a given company. Article 131 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation establishes that, in accordance with a collective agreement or employment contract, upon the written application of an employee, remuneration may be made in other forms that do not contradict the legislation of the Russian Federation and international treaties of the Russian Federation.

IMPORTANT!

The share of wages paid in non-monetary form cannot exceed 20 percent of the accrued monthly wage.

Payment of wages in bonds, coupons, in the form of promissory notes, receipts, as well as in the form of alcoholic beverages, narcotic, poisonous, harmful and other toxic substances, weapons, ammunition and other items in respect of which prohibitions or restrictions on their free circulation are established , not allowed.

Other sections of the regulations on payment and bonuses for employees

The wage regulations may contain other sections.

Procedure for approval and amendment of regulations

The regulation on remuneration of employees, like other internal acts of the enterprise, can be approved in several ways:

  • By affixing the stamp “I approve” on the act itself, with a record of the position of the responsible person, his full name. and personal signature;
  • An order is issued to approve the wage regulations - a separate order in writing.

Attention! After the regulation has been adopted, all employees registered at the enterprise must be familiarized with it against signature. This can be done by using familiarization sheets, or by making notes in a special journal.

When changes are made to labor legislation, or with the introduction of new processes at an enterprise, sometimes it becomes necessary to adjust the existing regulations on remuneration.

To do this, the responsible person must submit a memo to the director, on the basis of which the director will give an order to develop a new version of the regulation.

After this, approval of the project, approval of the wage regulations and implementation completely coincides with the process of working on the primary internal act.

Main sections

Purpose of document formation

The presence of a position in an enterprise is of great importance when resolving disputes with the team itself, as well as when proving the tax justification of expenses:

  • It contains the procedure for calculating additional payments to employees, which makes them justified in the expenditure base associated with the payment of bonuses, vacation pay, and incentive payments;
  • The provision details the responsibility of both parties, which makes it possible to recover penalties from employees for damage to property, neglect of their duties and work schedule;
  • The document is a guarantee for the employee to receive money for work at the right time and in the proper amount, as this is stated in it.

Alteration

In order for the changes to be legally justified, it is necessary to change the specific clause regulating the circumstances of interest on the basis of Art. 74 Labor Code of the Russian Federation. Important: changes must be notified to employees in writing two months in advance.

Salary in civil service

A significant percentage of employers in the Russian Federation are state and municipal authorities, as well as various institutions that are subordinate to them. The same provisions of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation are relevant for them as for private organizations, however, salary nuances in the civil service may be characterized by some peculiarities. Let's look at them.

For example, the salary of civil servants cannot be lower than the base salaries established by the Government of the Russian Federation, or the rates for specific professional qualification groups. Compliance of the salary level with the required criteria is ensured through the budget of the appropriate level - federal, regional or municipal.

The remuneration system established in a particular state or municipal institution may be determined by the provisions of various tariff and qualification reference books, which reflect the specifics of positions and professions. Recommendations from competent authorities, trade unions and other public associations may also be taken into account.

Professional qualification groups are categories within which workers and employees are united according to a number of criteria that reflect the specifics of the work actually performed. They are approved at the level of federal departments that are responsible for implementing state policy in the field of labor relations.

Payroll formulas

The actual salary is established by the employment contract between the employer and the employee. Its minimum level is 5965 rubles, the real one, as a rule, is several times higher. At the same time, Russian enterprises may use different forms and systems of remuneration. Let's look at the main ones.

One of the most common forms of remuneration is salary. That is, a person, working 40 hours a week on weekdays and resting on public holidays, receives a stable salary that does not directly depend on production indicators. A piecework form of remuneration is also practiced. It assumes that the amount of actual labor compensation will largely depend on the results of the specialist’s work. In practice, many employers practice mixed forms of remuneration. That is, the actual salary of an employee can be, for example, 70% fixed, and 30% dependent on the piecework-bonus component. It also happens the other way around.

There are positions in which only the part that corresponds to the minimum wage by law is fixed. But a person can, as a rule, earn quite a lot. For example, similar forms of remuneration are common in sales. The fixed part of a person’s salary in such cases is small - just within the minimum according to the Labor Code. But beyond this indicator, an employee can earn amounts sometimes several tens of times more.

Officially, there is no hourly wage in the Russian Federation. However, many employers actually practice it, since it is not directly prohibited by law (if other requirements are met - the minimum amount and timing of payments). In this case, the number of hours spent at work may determine, for example, the piecework-bonus component of the salary with a fixed payment equal to the minimum defined in the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. And therefore it turns out that wages will actually be hourly.

It can be noted that at various levels of discussion theses are often put forward that hourly wages should be enshrined in the Labor Code. Those types of remuneration, as the authors of the relevant ideas believe, that are currently prescribed in the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, do not reflect the realities in the Russian economy. Moreover, they note, in developed countries, hourly wages are standard practice.
