What is the seniority allowance and how is it calculated. The age limit for being in the state civil service: what should be remembered by the personnel officer

For several years, the authorities have been talking about the need to raise the age limit for working citizens. The reform began with the public sector. In particular, since January 1, 2019 has changed. In the new edition, among other things, it is specified what is the age limit for being in the civil service.

For ordinary officials, it increased from 60 to 65 years. If a person holds the position of an adviser or assistant, you can work longer - until the end of the term of office assigned to him. This will require a written decision of the representative of the employer, as well as the written consent of the employee himself.

Special conditions are also provided for managers. With the consent of the employee and by decision of the state body (relevant official), the contract with such a civil servant can be extended until he is 70 years old.

It is important to understand that the age limit for civil service does not increase immediately: the qualification will increase annually by 6 months. According to the amendments, male officials will have to work the full 65 years by 2026. For women, a benefit is provided - leaving work at the age of 63. Until such an age, those who leave office in 2032 will have to work.

Note that 65 and 70 years is, in principle, not the limit. At the request of the employee and with the consent of the employer, cooperation can be continued on the basis of. The only thing is that the employee will no longer be able to hold a position related to the civil service.

New retirement rules

In addition to the termination of work due to old age, officials can quit on the basis of seniority. From 2019, the length of service required for this will also change annually for six months. According to the annex table to the Federal Law of December 15, 2001 No. 166-FZ “On State Pension Provision in the Russian Federation”, care in 2019 will require a length of service of 16 years, and in 2019 - already 16.6 years. Those who expect to leave in 2026 must serve at least 20 years. The rules apply to both women and men.

It should be noted that, according to the current version of Law No. 166-FZ, in addition to the required length of service, federal state civil servants were also required to work for at least 12 full months in their last position. This rule does not apply to retirees who continue to work. In addition, it cannot be used if, as of January 1, 2019, a federal state civil servant:

  • has already acquired the right to a superannuation pension;
  • worked in the public sector for at least 20 years;
  • has more than 15 years of service and was previously eligible for a disability pension.

State civil serviceIt is used to solve many issues related to the employment of a civil servant. What is the civil service experience, how it is calculated and why it is needed, we will consider in this article.

The concept of seniority in the civil service

The length of service in the civil service, including civil service, is the total length of time during which a civil servant held certain positions in the civil service system of the Russian Federation.

This category is used to regulate many organizational and financial aspects related to the work of a civil servant. Based on the length of service of the state civil service, a monthly salary increase is calculated and the number of additional days to the main vacation is determined; the amount of rewards for long service and impeccable and efficient service is calculated. In addition, civil service experience is included in the list of qualifying requirements for a person when entering a public position. Also, they are guided by the length of service when assigning a pension and calculating its size.

At the legislative level, these issues are regulated:

  • Federal Laws No. 58-FZ of May 27, 2003 “On the State Civil Service System of the Russian Federation”, No. 79-FZ of July 27, 2004 “On the State Civil Service of the Russian Federation”, and No. 79-FZ of December 15, 2004 on State Pension Provision. 2001 No. 166-FZ;
  • Decrees of the President of the Russian Federation "On the calculation of the length of service of the state civil service of the Russian Federation ..." dated November 19, 2007 No. 1532 and "On the list of positions, periods of service (work) in which are included in the length of service of the state civil service for the appointment of a pension for the length of service of federal state civil servants » dated September 20, 2010 No. 1141 (hereinafter referred to as the List).

By decree of the President of the Russian Federation, positions are approved, the period of work in which is counted in the length of service of the state civil service. This is a pretty impressive list of 20 items. To summarize, it turns out that the length of service in the civil service takes into account the terms of employment in state (for example, the President of the Russian Federation) and municipal positions (deputy of the regional Duma from the district), in civil service positions (for example, the prime minister of a republic within the Russian Federation) , military positions and positions in law enforcement agencies, as well as some others (tax police, customs, penitentiary system, etc.).

The rules for calculating the length of service of the civil service, approved by the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation, clarify that when calculating the length of service of the state civil service of a civil servant, all periods of work in positions are summed up, the list of which is determined by law and the replacement of which is counted in the length of service of the state civil service.

You can document the length of service in the state civil service with entries in the work book, in some cases - with a military ID. If the data in the work book is erroneous or missing, then the evidence will be a certificate from the archive containing information about the periods of civil service. The calculation is carried out in calendar months and years, with every 30 days converted into 1 calendar month, and every 12 months into 1 calendar year.

Example

The citizen has worked in law enforcement agencies in a position included in the List for 6 years 4 months and 21 days. Then he worked for 8 years 7 months and 9 days in the prosecutor's office - also in a position included in the List. By mathematical addition, we get the total experience of a citizen in the public service - 15 years.

From 27.05.2003 "On the public service system of the Russian Federation" civil servants are divided into:

  • federal civil servants- These are citizens who work in the federal state structure and receive remuneration from the federal budget. Persons holding federal public office include employees of:
    • apparatuses of federal legislative bodies;
    • federal executive authorities
    • apparatus of the federal judiciary;
    • other federal state bodies (the prosecutor's office, the Investigative Committee, the Accounts Chamber, etc.)
  • Civil servants of the subject of the Russian Federation(municipal employees) are citizens working in a civil position and receiving remuneration from the budget of the corresponding subject of the Russian Federation.

The positions of the civil service themselves are determined by decree of the President of the Russian Federation of December 31, 2005 N 1574, and their pension provision - by law of December 15, 2001 N 166-FZ "On State Pension Provision in the Russian Federation".

Types of assigned pension provision

For civil servants, in accordance with Article 7 of Federal Law No. 166-FZ of December 15, 2001, pension payments are provided for both length of service and an insurance pension (in accordance with Law No. 400-FZ of December 28, 2013), if conditions for its calculation.

  • Seniority pension accruals are provided for federal civil servants (they also include municipal employees) who have reached retirement age and a certain length of service in public positions. The payment for the length of service is made from the budget of the Russian Federation, the region or the municipality.
  • If a citizen worked in non-state structures and insurance premiums were deducted for him, then he has the right to receive an old-age (disability) pension from the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation.

The retirement pension is only granted at the same time as the insurance pension by age (or due to disability).

Appointment of a pension for years of service to civil servants

In order for a retirement pension to be granted, several conditions must be met:

  • reaching retirement age (for 2018, women - 56 years old, men - 61);
  • the length of service in a public position must be at least 16 years;
  • continuous length of service in the civil service - at least 12 months before dismissal (only federal civil servants);
  • the dismissal of the employee occurred by agreement of the parties, in connection with changes in the terms of the contract, the reduction or liquidation of the state body or the achievement of the maximum age of public service.

It is possible to receive a pension before the retirement age, in which case the civil service length must be at least 25 years old and uninterrupted length of service in the public service must be at least 7 years. Also, in the event of the liquidation of a state organization or a reduction in the state organization, it is possible to receive a pension without fulfilling the condition for working out 12 months.

With work experience in the public service at least 15 years the employee can count on a pension payment in the amount of 45% of average monthly earnings minus the insurance pension.

For each year of work experience over 15 years, the payment increases by 3%, but in total the total payment cannot exceed 75% from the average salary of an employee.

The right to an insurance (labor) pension

Federal state civil servants are entitled to a share of the insurance (labor) pension in accordance with article 19 of the law "About insurance pensions" with a period of insurance experience of 15 years, which includes the term of public service, if you have the required number of points and reach retirement age.

The insurance period includes the following periods:

  • periods of activity for which contributions were paid under the OPS;
  • term of public service;
  • other periods specified in Art. 12 law "About insurance pensions".

The insurance pension provision is calculated based on the accumulated value of pension points multiplied by their value in the year of assignment (from January 1, 2018, 81.49 rubles). For civil servants, such a pension is paid excluding fixed payment.

If a citizen continues to work after retirement, for which contributions to the Pension Fund will continue to be paid, then his pension provision will be subject to recalculation. Thus, the share of the old-age insurance pension according to individual accounting data is subject to recalculation with an increase in the sum of coefficients, which depends on the amount of insurance premiums not taken into account when calculating the insurance pension when it was assigned. Recalculation takes place annually from August 1 without filing an application by a pensioner.

Law on raising the retirement age from 2017

On May 11, 2016, a law proposed by United Russia party Valery Trapeznikov was adopted, on the basis of which gradual increase in the retirement age of civil servants for women under 63, and up to 65 for men.

The law No. 143-FZ dated May 23, 2016 comes into force on January 1, 2017 and will involve an increase in the retirement age for six months annually until it reaches the set level. For men, this will happen by 2026, and for women by 2032.

The period of service for receiving a pension has also changed: if earlier it was 15 years, now civil servants will have to work 20 years. The minimum length of service, as well as the retirement age, will also increase gradually and reach the final increase by 2026.

This law also increases the term for the performance of duties for deputies of the State Duma and members of the Federation Council for accruing seniority bonuses, now it will be 5 years instead of the previously established year.

Calculation of the state pension of federal employees

The calculation of the amount of the state pension payment for length of service for federal civil servants depends on the average monthly salary of the length of service and the amount of the accrued old-age (disability) pension, and is calculated by the formula:

P \u003d (45% SZ - SP) + 3% SZ × St,

  • P- the size of the pension for years of service;
  • NW- average salary;
  • joint venture- the amount of the old-age (disability) pension;
  • St- over 15 years of experience.

The calculation does not take into account the amounts of increases in fixed payments to the insurance pension and the size of the share of the insurance pension.

The law also sets limits on the amount of the maximum payment of a pension. So the amount of the service pension and the insurance pension cannot exceed 75% average monthly salary of a federal civil servant.

Earnings from which the pension is calculated

The amount of the seniority pension depends on the average monthly earnings for the last year (12 months) of service prior to retirement. To determine the amount of this earnings the following payments are taken into account civil servants:

  1. official monthly salary;
  2. monthly salary, which is assigned to the employee according to the class rank;
  3. seniority bonus;
  4. allowance for special conditions of the federal state civil service, accrued to the official salary;
  5. allowance for work with information constituting a state secret;
  6. monthly bonus;
  7. bonus for the performance of particularly important and complex tasks;
  8. a one-time payment for annual paid leave and financial assistance.

When calculating the average monthly income are excluded from the calculation periods (accrued benefits during this time are not taken into account):

  1. vacation of an employee without saving money;
  2. leave for pregnancy and childbirth and for the care of a child upon reaching the age established by law;
  3. period of temporary disability.

The amount of average monthly earnings is calculated by dividing the total amount of payments by 12. If holidays or sick days are recorded in the billing period, then the total amount of earnings is divided by the number of days actually worked and multiplied by 21 (the average number of working days per year).

The amount of average earnings cannot exceed 2.8 of the official salary or 0.8 of the monetary remuneration established for the employee in the billing period.

Indexation of pensions for civil servants

The annual seniority pension may be subject to increase by indexation. In accordance with the Decree of May 31, 2005 N 346, it is carried out:

  • at salary increase federal civil servants - by the index of increasing such official salaries;
  • at increase in other cash payments included in the maintenance of federal civil servants - by the index of increase in such payments (weighted average).

An increase in the amount of payments also occurs in the following cases:

  • change in the amount of the old-age pension;
  • increase in public service.

Indexation of labor old-age pensions is carried out annually on February 1 at the level of inflation of the previous year. However, this provision of the legislation was suspended until 2017 and in the current 2016, the increase amounted to only 4%. After such a low indexation, the government decided to pay an additional 5000 rubles for all pensioners as compensation (January 1, 2017).

Increasing the amount of payments

In addition to the indexation of pension provision, according to Article 14 of the Federal Law of December 15, 2001 No. №166-FZ "On state pension provision in the Russian Federation", An increase in the amount of payments is provided in the following cases:

  • For each full year of service over 15 years by 3% of the average monthly salary. At the same time, the total amount of pension and fixed payment should not exceed 75% of the average monthly earnings.
  • Residents of the regions of the Far North, areas equated to it, as well as citizens who previously worked in such areas, are set a coefficient for the entire period of time spent there, in accordance with the decree of the Government of the Russian Federation. When a citizen leaves this area for permanent residence, the amount of the pension benefit will be calculated without taking into account this coefficient.

Registration of pension and necessary documents

A citizen has the right to apply for the appointment of a pension after the right to a name arises for him Chairman of the Board of the PFR, at any time with no time limit. The application must be submitted to the Pension Fund or the Multifunctional Center either independently or through a legal representative, or by mail.
