All employers are required to conduct a special assessment of working conditions in 2019. Otherwise, violators will face a fine of 60,000 to 80,000 rubles. This procedure is established by part 2 of Article 5.27 of the Code of Administrative Offenses. In the article we will talk about the nuances of conducting a special assessment, the procedure for conducting it and the cost, as well as the latest news on special assessment.

Ivan Shklovets, deputy head of Rostrud, gave a comment to the Simplification magazine. He told how small businesses conduct a special assessment.

“If, according to the results of the assessment, the expert did not identify harmful and dangerous factors, the company has the right to submit a declaration of conformity for these workplaces. Then, in the future, a special assessment can be omitted,” Ivan Shklovets noted.

As the official noted, all companies are required to conduct a special assessment of working conditions at least once every five years (clause 4, article 8 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ). If the organization does not have jobs with harmful or hazardous conditions labor, a special assessment must be carried out before December 31, 2018 (clause 1, article 27 of Law No. 426-FZ). However, Rostrud named cases when companies, even if they have employees, have the right not to conduct a special assessment. We cited such cases in the article of the magazine "Simplification".

What is a job appraisal

Special assessment of workplaces or abbreviated as "SOUT" is a set of consistently carried out activities, the purpose of which is to identify harmful and / or dangerous conditions labor process and assessment of the level of impact of deviations from the norms on the employee (clause 1, article 3 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ).

The employer must spend at least 0.2% of the cost of manufacturing products, performing work, and providing services on labor protection for employees (part 3 of article 226 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). The list of activities is contained in the order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development dated 01.03.2012 No. 181n and also includes the implementation of the SATS.

Based on the results of a special assessment of workplaces, the commission establishes a class / subclass of working conditions.

In accordance with paragraph 7 of Art. 14 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ, it is allowed to reduce the class (subclass) of working conditions for workers by more than one step. For companies doing certain types activities, improvement of working conditions can be carried out according to the established industry specifics.

Please note that the SOUT should be carried out at least once every 5 years, unless otherwise provided by the legislation of the Russian Federation. The countdown of the period of the SUT is carried out from the date of approval of the assessment report.

Who checks working conditions

The requirements for the company conducting the SOUT are established by Art. 19 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ. So, in the statutory documents of the inspectors, “conducting the SAUT” should be indicated as the main type of activity or one of the types of activity. In addition, the company must have:

  • at least 5 experts with a certificate granting the right to provide services for assessing working conditions
  • at least 1 expert higher education in one of the specialties: sanitary and hygienic laboratory research / general hygiene/ occupational health

The testing company must have an accredited testing laboratory. At the same time, accreditation is "for testing and measuring harmful and / or dangerous factors of the working environment and the labor process." The checking company has the right to involve third-party testing laboratories. This does not contradict the legislation of the Russian Federation (clause 2, article 19 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ).

The register of organizations that, in the opinion of the Ministry of Labor of Russia, have the right to engage in the implementation of the SOUT is published on the website of the department: akot.rosmintrud.ru

Who is required to conduct a special assessment of jobs in 2019

Who has the right not to conduct a special assessment

An unscheduled special assessment does not need to be carried out if:

  • name changed - at the employer-IP
  • as a result of the reorganization, the organizational and legal form of the employer-legal entity has changed
  • the name of the workplace has changed (at the same time, such an innovation did not lead to grounds for conducting unscheduled inspection working conditions)

The employer must conduct an assessment of all workplaces, with the exception of checking the working conditions of teleworkers and homeworkers. SOUT is also not carried out in relation to employees who have entered into labor relations with individuals not registered in tax office as individual entrepreneurs.

Step-by-step rules for conducting a special assessment and documents

Step 1. Drawing up and approval of the composition of the commission for conducting a special assessment of working conditions

The head of the company must approve the composition of the commission for the implementation of the SOUT and the procedure for its activities. The number of committee members must not be even. Moreover, as part of the commission without fail there must be a labor protection specialist (paragraphs 1-2 of article 9 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ). As a rule, the head of the commission CEO of the company appoints himself (part 4 of article 9 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ).

Step 2. Determining the list of jobs subject to SUT

The list of workplaces that are subject to inspection for the presence of harmful and / or dangerous working conditions is established by the commission. If there are similar jobs, the SOUT is carried out only in relation to 20% of them, but not less than two (clause 1, article 16 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ). For the rest of the workplaces, the results obtained when checking 20% ​​of the places from the total number are applied.

At the same time, similar jobs should be understood as jobs where employees:

  • perform the same job duties (same position, specialty, position) in one or more similar industrial premises equipped with identical or similar ventilation, air conditioning, lighting and heating systems
  • work in the same mode of working hours while maintaining the same type technological process using identical production equipment, tools, raw materials and supplies
  • provided with the same personal protective equipment

Step 3. Approval of the schedule for conducting the SUT

When scheduling the assessment, the following should be taken into account:

  • SOUT is carried out for each worker's dream at least once every 5 years (this procedure also applies to office premises). The basis is paragraph 4 of Art. 8 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ
  • if the employer has not previously conducted a SATS, then the deadline to check workplaces for the presence of harmful and / or dangerous factors on the employee and the degree of their influence is no later than December 31, 2018 (clause 6, article 27 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426- FZ)

It should be noted that the law does not prohibit the implementation of SOUT of workplaces in stages, with the exception of workplaces where:

  • based on the results of a previous assessment, harmful and / or dangerous working conditions were established
  • the position (specialty) of employees gives them the right to early appointment of an old-age insurance pension
  • compensation and guarantees for work with harmful and / or dangerous working conditions

However, according to the Ministry of Labor of Russia, certification of workplaces should be carried out without division into stages (Letter of the Ministry of Labor of Russia dated December 8, 2014 No. 15-1 / B-1829). For the lack of results of the SOUT, the Code of Administrative Offenses provides for liability, including a fine:

  • up to 10,000 rubles - for individual entrepreneurs and officials
  • up to 80,000 rubles – for companies

Step 4. Conclusion of an agreement with a specialized company for the implementation of the SOUT

To avoid cooperation with scammers, you should use the register of the company and experts listed on the website of the Ministry of Labor of Russia: akot.rosmintrud.ru

Step 5. Providing the auditing company and experts with the necessary information and documents

Step 6. Identification of harmful and / or hazardous production factors and assessment of their level

Step 7. Reflection of the results of the SUT in the report and approval of the report

The result of the conducted SOUT must be indicated in the report and signed by all members of the commission, including its chairman (part 2 of article 15 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ). In case of disagreement of any specialist of the commission with the result of the inspection of workplaces, it is necessary that he state his opinion in writing and attach it to the report.

Step 8. Notification of the company conducting the SUT about the approval of the report with the results of the job assessment

Within three working days from the date of signing the report on the conduct of the SATS, the employer must notify the company with which he has concluded an agreement on the assessment of jobs, as well as send her a copy of the approved report (clause 5.1, article 15 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ). The fact of the notification must be confirmed.

Step. 9 Sending a declaration to the supervisory authority

In the absence of harmful and / or dangerous production factors, the employer must notify the labor inspectorate at his location. This procedure is provided for in paragraph 1 of Art. 11 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ. The form and procedure for filing the declaration are approved by the Ministry of Labor of Russia (Order No. 80n dated February 7, 2014).

The deadline for filing a declaration is no later than 30 working days from the date of approval of the report on the implementation of the SAUT (clause 5 of the Procedure for filing a declaration of compliance of working conditions with state regulatory requirements for labor protection, approved by Order of the Ministry of Labor of Russia dated February 7, 2014 No. 80n).

Step 10. Familiarize employees with the results of the SUT

Employees of the company must be familiarized with the results of the SOUT no later than 30 calendar days from the date of approval of the report (clause 5, article 15 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ).

Step. 11 Posting the results of the SOUT on the website

Such a requirement is specified in paragraph 6 of Art. 15 of the Federal Law of December 28, 2013 No. 426-FZ).

Step 12. Notification of the FSS of Russia on the results of the SOUT

The data is reflected in the form 4-FSS. The form was approved by the Order of the FSS of Russia dated September 26, 2016 No. 381).

Step 13. Applying the results of SUT

When the working conditions are recognized by the commission as harmful or dangerous, a list of measures that the employer must perform (purchase personal protective equipment, etc.) is added to the report.

The employer must amend labor contracts with employees, and in the agreement indicate new working conditions, guarantees for harmful or dangerous conditions. Date of entry into force. agreements to the employment contract - the date of approval of the report with the results of the SOUT.

For work in harmful and dangerous working conditions, the employee is entitled to additional payments, reduced work time depending on the class/subclass of working conditions, additional holidays(Articles 92, 117 and 147 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). Employees who perform their labor duties in harmful or dangerous working conditions, regardless of what class and degree they are assigned, must be paid increased wages. The minimum amount of increase in payments is 4% of the usual salary or tariff rate (parts 1 and 2 of article 147 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). Moreover, at harmful conditions labor (3rd or 4th degree) or dangerous, workers are entitled to reduced working hours (see table).

Payments to employees employed in the work specified in paragraphs 1-18 of part 1 of Art. 30 of Federal Law No. 400-FZ are subject to additional contributions, but on the condition that such employees have the right to early retirement (Letters of the Ministry of Finance of October 23, 2017 No. 03-15-06 / 69113, letter of the Federal Tax Service of Russia of May 24, 2017 No. BS- 4-11/9763).

The accrual of contributions for additional tariffs must be carried out from the date of approval of the report on the implementation of the SATS (Letter of the Ministry of Labor of Russia dated March 13, 2014 No. 17-3 / V-113).

Approximate cost of special valuation by region

The cost of the SUT depends on the total number of jobs to be assessed. As a rule, the price of SOUT depends on the category of the workplace:

  • office workplace (manager, secretary, accountant, lawyer, programmer, etc.)
  • workplace of the 1st category (installer, loader, nurse, waiter, doctor, etc.)
  • workplace of the 2nd category (driver, welder, laboratory assistant, foundry worker, metallurgist, radiologist, etc.)

In Moscow, St. Petersburg, the standard price starts from 600 rubles. for 1 workplace, but many experts argue that SOUT 1 workplace cannot cost 600 rubles, since the cost of such work is much higher.

The cost of SOUT includes the costs of:

  • wages for highly skilled workers
  • overhead costs (rental of premises, maintenance of office equipment, software, electricity, etc.)
  • depreciation of expensive equipment and devices, consumables

To reduce the cost of the company:

  • inspection companies work remotely
  • third-party specialists without the necessary qualifications are involved
  • unverified devices are used
  • results are copied (based on research in companies with similar activities)

The average economic substantiated cost of SOUT 1 workplace is from 2,500 to 4,000 rubles. This price is indicated in the letter of the Ministry of Labor of Russia No. 15-4 / 10 / P-3758 of 07/08/2014. Taking into account the category of complexity of the workplace (for example, a complex non-stationary workplace, the assessment of which requires the measurement of the maximum single or average shift concentration of several chemicals), the price can increase up to 3 times.

If the price of a special assessment of the workplace is lower than the economically justified price by more than 30% of the average market price, then this increases the risk of a fictitious assessment of the SOUT or an assessment according to the “simple option”, which does not correspond to established requirements, which leads to further penalties.

Articles in electronic journal"Simplification":

From the article you will learn:

1. How to prepare and document a special assessment of working conditions.

2. What are the stages of the process of conducting a special assessment of working conditions, what are the functions of the employer in this process.

3. How are the results of a special assessment of working conditions formalized and where should they be reflected.

4. What legislative and regulations be guided in the conduct of a special assessment of working conditions.

According to paragraph 3 of Art. 9 of Law No. 426-FZ, the commission for conducting a special assessment of working conditions should include, among other things, a labor protection specialist. However, not every employer has such a specialist, what to do in this case? In accordance with the Labor Code of the Russian Federation (Article 217), if the employer carries out production activities and the number of employees exceeds 50 people, then a labor protection service should be organized or a labor protection specialist should be allocated. If the number of employees does not exceed 50 people and in the absence of a separate service or specialist, the employer (individual entrepreneur or head of the organization) may assume the functions of labor protection, or transfer these functions to another employee, third-party specialist or organization involved under a civil contract. of a legal nature and providing labor protection services. Thus, in some cases, it is allowed to assign labor protection duties directly to the manager ( individual entrepreneur), however, regardless of who is appointed responsible, the documents on labor protection must be available and properly executed.

! Note: before conducting a special assessment of working conditions, the documentation on labor protection should be put in order (a log book of instructions on fire safety etc.) since representatives of a specialized organization conducting a special assessment of working conditions may request these documents. I consider it inappropriate to describe in detail the entire composition of the documents and the procedure for filling them out in this article; if necessary, you can find the relevant orders and recommendations of the Ministry of Labor of Russia (for example, “Methodological recommendations for the development of labor protection instructions” dated 05/13/2004). However, at a minimum, an order is required to appoint a person responsible for labor protection, as we found out, it can be full-time specialist or the labor protection service, an involved specialist or organization or the head himself (individual entrepreneur).

2. Determination of jobs subject to special assessment.

The commission determines the list of jobs for which a special assessment of working conditions will be carried out, and also identifies similar jobs. If there are similar jobs, a special assessment is carried out for 20 percent of such jobs (but not less than two), and the results are applied to all similar jobs.

Similar jobs are jobs that are located in the same type of industrial premises, equipped with the same (same type) ventilation, air conditioning, heating and lighting systems, where employees work in the same profession, position, specialty, perform the same labor functions in the same working hours while conducting the same type of technological process using the same production equipment, tools, fixtures, materials and raw materials and are provided with the same personal protective equipment (clause 6, article 9 of law No. 426-FZ). For example, if two accountants work in the same office under the same conditions, then these places are considered similar. However, if a lawyer works in the same office under exactly the same conditions, then the lawyer's workplace is not the same as the accountant's workplace, since they have different positions.

! Note: before concluding an agreement with an organization conducting a special assessment of working conditions, it is necessary to check staffing other personnel documents (employment contracts, job descriptions etc.). The fact is that the special assessment is carried out in relation to the employer's jobs, the number and composition of which are determined precisely according to the staffing table. First of all, a specialized organization will request a staffing table and, in accordance with it, determine the composition of the jobs to be checked, and, accordingly, the cost of their services. That is, it is in the interests of the employer that the staffing table (its latest edition) be up-to-date, so that there are no “extra” positions in it (which, for example, were earlier, but then they were abolished or renamed, etc.). But at the same time, if you plan to create new jobs in the near future (a new department, new positions), then it is advisable to create and introduce them before conducting a special assessment of working conditions, since if this is done later, it will be necessary to conduct an unscheduled special assessment working conditions (Article 17 of Law No. 426-FZ).

3. Conclusion of an agreement with a specialized organization for a special assessment of working conditions.

Please note: a specialized organization must comply with certain requirements established by law (Article 19 of Law No. 426-FZ).

4. Identification by a specialized organization of potentially harmful and (or) hazardous production factors and their measurement (if such factors are identified).

5. Declaration of compliance of working conditions with state regulatory requirements for labor protection.

For workplaces where no hazardous factors have been identified, the employer submits to the labor inspectorate a declaration of compliance of working conditions with state regulatory requirements for labor protection.

The form and procedure for submitting the declaration are established by Order of the Ministry of Labor of Russia dated February 7, 2014 No. 80n “On the form and procedure for filing a declaration of compliance of working conditions with state regulatory requirements for labor protection, the procedure for the formation and maintenance of a register of declarations of compliance of working conditions with state regulatory requirements for labor protection”.

! note The Declaration of Conformity of Working Conditions is valid for five years. After this period, in the absence during the period of validity of the declaration of accidents at work (with the exception of those that occurred due to the fault of third parties) or the identification of occupational diseases caused by the impact on the employee harmful factors, the validity of this declaration is extended for another five years.

6. Distribution of jobs by classes and subclasses of harmfulness.

In relation to workplaces for which hazardous factors have been identified, a specialized organization conducting a special assessment assigns them to the appropriate classes and subclasses of hazard (harmfulness). The characteristics of classes and subclasses of danger are given in Art. 14 of Law No. 426-FZ. Just on the basis of this information, additional tariffs for insurance premiums to the Pension Fund are subsequently established.

Legislation and regulations

1. Federal Law No. 426-FZ of December 28, 2013 “On Special Assessment of Working Conditions”

2. Labor Code of the Russian Federation

3. Order of the Ministry of Labor of Russia dated February 7, 2014 No. 80n “On the form and procedure for filing a declaration of compliance of working conditions with state regulatory requirements for labor protection, the procedure for the formation and maintenance of a register of declarations of compliance of working conditions with state regulatory requirements for labor protection”

How to get acquainted with the official texts of these documents, find out in the section

The procedure for conducting the SATS is enshrined in law and in some parts contains fairly liberal provisions. For example, according to paragraph 6 of article 27, for some jobs, a special assessment can be carried out in stages and must be completed by 12/31/2018. However, the courts have an ambiguous approach to the interpretation of this provision and make conflicting decisions (for example, Rulings of November 11, 2014 No. 11-11968/2014 and February 26, 2015 No. 33-5865/15), and fines for not holding this event can be up to 200 000 rubles.

SOUT: timing

Special valuation working conditions for the first time must be carried out within a period not exceeding 12 months from the date of creation of a new workplace. If the organization has been operating for more than 12 months, and the certification of workplaces (AWP) or a special assessment of working conditions has never been carried out, then a special assessment must be carried out immediately or yesterday.

  • safe work of its employees;
  • labor protection of its employees;
  • informing workers about the conditions in which they work, etc.
  • safe working conditions;
  • obtaining information about the conditions of harmfulness at their workplace.

That is, the employee has the right to require the employer to provide information on the degree of risk to his health, which may be exposed to harmful or dangerous production factors (even sitting in front of the monitor screen). And if the employer does not provide him with such information, the employee has the right to receive this information apply to the state supervision body for compliance with the law.

In this case, the employer will face a fine of up to 80,000 rubles and a written order on the need to organize a special assessment. Otherwise, an administrative suspension of the company's activities for up to 90 days may threaten.

Frequency of holding

The period of validity of the special assessment of working conditions is 5 years. The passage of time begins from the day the assessment report for each individual workplace is approved. The results of this event can be reduced to two options, when:

  • no harmful factors were identified during the course;
  • harmful factors are identified and classified accordingly.

Harmful factors have not been identified

If during the course of the special assessment no harmful and dangerous production factors were identified, such a workplace is subject to declaration to the territorial authority federal service on labor and employment for compliance of working conditions with the regulatory requirements of labor protection.

In this case, if within the next 5 years in relation to this workplace there are no reasons to conduct an unscheduled special assessment, then after this period it is not necessary to carry out a repeated SOUT, the validity of the declaration is considered automatically extended.

And in what terms it is necessary to do the SOUT in the future (if it needs to be done at all), the law does not say ..

Harmful factors identified and classified

In this case, the period of validity of the special assessment of working conditions is 5 years. Moreover, this does not mean that five years have passed and it is necessary to start organizing a new special assessment. By the expiration of the five-year period, the employer must have the results of the attestation ready, that is, no interruption is allowed.

Workplace certification

AWP is, in fact, the same as a special assessment, only with a different name. Therefore, if the employer carried out the AWS before 01/01/2014, then the current legislation allows him not to organize and not to conduct any additional events for the entire period of validity of the SOUT until the date of completion of the results of this certification, of course, if there are no grounds for conducting an unscheduled SOUT.
