Dismissal of a disabled person

If there is a need to fire a person, this process is carried out strictly in accordance with the rules prescribed in clause 5, part 1, art. 83 Labor Code of the Russian Federation. The documentary basis in such a case is the official conclusion of the ITU.

If a person has become disabled as a result of his work at a given enterprise, if he has received a certain occupational disease, upon dismissal he is paid expenses for the following types of rehabilitation:

• Social;
• Medical;
• Professional.

In this case, the volume, types and general conditions for the provision of payments are prescribed in legislation No. 125-FZ and 165-FZ.

Transfer to another position

If a person is of a certain value to the enterprise, if his health condition allows him to work in lighter types of activity, he must be transferred. Only if the employee is not satisfied with the new position, he can be fired. This rule is spelled out in clause 8, part 1, art. 77 Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

Expert opinion

A person with a disability can only be fired in two cases. The first is the lack of a suitable position at the enterprise. The employee’s refusal to accept the options provided. In this case, in any case, the employee is paid compensation in the amount of two weeks’ average salary.

Employee of the social protection organization, Moscow, Lyudmila Dmitrievna Cherenkova.

Along with monetary compensation equal to two months' salary, a dismissed employee has the right to receive payment for unworked vacation days.

• If it is clear that the employee will not recover, that the disability will last throughout his life, then the additional payment is made within a month from the date of transfer;
• If there is reason to believe that the person will recover, additional payment will be made until recovery.

Along with the required cash payments, the employee who remains at the enterprise will be entitled to other benefits. They are worth studying in more detail.

Re-examination for disabled people of the 2nd group

According to the law, this type of disability is established only for a calendar year. After this period, the benefits end. The citizen must go through the entire ITU procedure again.

The date of re-examination is indicated in the report.

Guarantees for disabled employees

As noted above, an employee with a disability can be officially transferred to easier work if appropriate positions are available. In such a case, the employer must provide certain guarantees. They are described in more detail in the table.

Despite the fact that disabled people work for a reduced period of time, they fully retain the required wages. The employer does not have the right to reduce the salary in relation to the actual time worked. The listed rules and requirements for financial support for disabled people are prescribed in Federal Law No. 181.

Important! If a disabled person was involved in the night shift, the total working time will not be reduced.

It is believed that the absence of medical contraindications, as well as one’s own consent, allows one to work a full night shift.

Basic material benefits

Disabled people have the right to a shortened working week, which is established in clause 3, article 23, Federal Law of November 24, 1995 No. 181-FZ and in clause 1, art. 92, Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

This measure applies exclusively to disabled people of the first and second groups.

A shortened work week means no more than 35 working hours for the entire week. The employer is obliged to take this aspect into account when drawing up a work schedule, as well as an employment contract. In this case, the length of the working day is determined according to a medical report.

The same aspect is taken into account when calculating wages - it cannot be less than that of other citizens working a “full” 40-hour week. Shortened shifts for disabled people are not grounds for a pay cut.

The employer does not have the right to calculate wages based on the number of hours actually worked. That is, a disabled employee is required to receive regular wages on an equal basis with everyone else.

Quotas have been established for hiring people with disabilities, and each enterprise and institution has its own quotas, which are determined at the regional level (Part 2 of Article 22 of Law No. 181-FZ). The employer is obliged to create such places, as well as specially equip them for the employment of disabled people (Part 1, Article 22 of Law No. 181-FZ).

The employer must create working conditions (including work hours) in accordance with the individual rehabilitation program for a disabled person. Including the maximum daily working hours is set by this program.

Vacation pay for disabled people

According to the general rules prescribed in Art. 115 of the Labor Code, the total time of standard vacation should not be less than 28 days. For citizens who have disabilities, this rest period is automatically increased by two days .

This change in the total vacation time must be specified in the employment agreement. In order for a decision to be made, the employee must provide disability certificates.

Based on an official written application, the employee is granted leave without pay. The duration depends on how the employee and his boss agree. This period can be any, but not more than 60 days.

Based on the legal provisions established today, we can conclude that leave without pay is divided into two categories:

• Provided at the discretion of the manager. This is a period of rest that is given on the basis of family extenuating circumstances;
• Provided at the request of the employee. They apply to certain categories of employees who have a second group disability.

Special conditions are provided to disabled people when it comes time to undergo the next medical examination. For this period, a person does not need to arrange a vacation at his own expense . The frequency of such a commission may vary:

1. First disability group – once every two years.
2. The second and third groups - once a year.
3. During the period of change in the vocational rehabilitation program.
4. If the general labor or clinical prognosis worsens.

In the extreme two cases, the person is sent to ITU. The transit time does not matter in this case. Also, the disability group awarded earlier does not matter.

Are there any benefits for disabled people of group 2?

State support for people with disabilities is provided both at the federal and regional levels. Among the benefits for disabled people of 2 groups, the following are distinguished:

• disability pension;

If for some reason these employees cannot be kept at work, they must be provided with other vacant jobs. They are not necessarily qualified, but may be inferior and paid at lower rates. In the process of choosing an alternative place of work, the general physical condition of the employee must be taken into account .

How to get benefits in 2021

In order for rights and benefits to be realized, a citizen is first of all obliged to confirm his status as a disabled person. For this purpose, a special commission is held in a medical institution, based on the results of which a corresponding certificate is issued.

This is exactly what needs to be provided to a working disabled person:

• at the place of work;
• to the Department of Social Protection of the Population;
• another body providing benefits.

The employer is obliged to take into account the certificate according to which the employee is classified as a disabled citizen, and, taking it into account, draw up an additional agreement to the employment contract or a new employment contract. In addition, based on the certificate, the employer undertakes to organize decent working conditions for the employee.

An employer does not have the right to assign an employee with disabilities to night shifts unless the latter has expressed his consent to this in writing, or when this is contrary to medical indications. On weekends and overtime, a disabled employee also has the right not to work on completely legal grounds.

It is noteworthy that the legislation of the Russian Federation provides for special quotas for places for citizens with disabilities.

The size of quotas is established by regional legislation.

So, if an organization or enterprise employs more than 100 people, then the quota is subject to implementation; the average number of jobs for disabled people is set from 2% to 4%. If the company employs less than 100 people, then hiring a disabled person remains the right of the employer, and not an obligation.

If there is no quota, a management representative has the right to refuse employment on legal grounds. If the employer has not exercised his right to a quota, if it exists, then he is obliged to pay the appropriate taxes and fees to the state. Exceptions are enterprises with harmful or dangerous working conditions.

A disabled person who is not hired by an organization that has a quota has the right to go to court without paying a state fee.

Workplace equipment

If a manager has an employee with a disability at an enterprise, he must ensure that appropriate conditions are created for working.

Appropriate equipment must be available at the workplace. This rule is spelled out in Part 1 of Art. 22 No. 181-FZ. When arranging a workplace, such important factors as the functions and limitations a person has must be taken into account.

According to modern legislation, employers who employ disabled people in their enterprises receive certain tax benefits. Many Moscow entrepreneurs at one time began to abuse this situation and hired a large number of such employees to the enterprise.

For this reason, provisions related to the minimum number of posts were established and adopted. For each specific enterprise, quotas have been determined for the admission of people with disabilities.

Objectives of protection of persons with disabilities

The purpose of social protection of disabled people. Why do people with disabilities need help?

Important! For persons with disabilities of the second group, a deduction is provided equal to 500 rubles for each month of the reporting period.

Such relief is provided in each month of the reporting year. The amount of annual profit and salary does not matter. In other cases, the operation of calculating and withholding tax is the same as in relation to ordinary employees.

EDV and NSU

What other disability benefits is a person entitled to besides a pension? Disabled people of group 2, along with pension payments, are accrued 1,515.05 rubles per month indefinitely.

In addition, a set of free social services is offered, which includes:

• medicines;
• vouchers to a sanatorium for treatment and rehabilitation with compensation for railway travel and air tickets;

Thus, for refusing all services you can get 1,075.19 rubles, then the total amount per month will be 2,590.24 rubles. The decision can be changed every year until October 1.

The application for receipt is submitted as part of a set of documents for a pension or separately. Based on the result of choosing services, PF employees issue a certificate with a list of benefits provided.

Insurance pension

This financial support is provided directly from the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation. Its appointment is carried out exclusively for individuals registered in accordance with all the rules in the pension system.

The right to receive this financial assistance arises if a citizen is recognized as disabled and in order to compensate him for earnings or other income.

There are several criteria for persons who wish to become recipients of this type of pension equipment.

1. Those wishing to do so are required to register with the pension system.
2. Their legal status must meet the criteria of limited ability to work on the basis of federal law.
3. For such individuals, one of three categories of disability must be established.

Types of insurance pension

A disability insurance pension is established regardless of the reasons for a person’s inability to work, the length of his insurance period, or the total amount of work activity.

The size of this payment is directly related to the salary received. In addition to insurance material support, a portion of the amount of a fixed amount is allocated; its volume will vary depending on the category.

For disabled individuals of group II, the amount of fixed payment of group II is 4,758.98 rubles. The disability insurance pension is established regardless of the reasons for the person’s incapacity for work.

1. Recognition on the basis of a medical report of a disability status of the first, second or third category in combination with limited ability to perform a labor function.
2. A formalized conclusion of a medical and social examination on recognition as a disabled person.

When the right to this material assistance arises, it does not matter whether the disabled individual continues to perform labor functions and also the moment of the onset of disability is not important. It can occur during the production process, before it is carried out, or after leaving service. Amount of disability pension

The fixed amount of this state payment in connection with group 2 disability is 2,771 rubles per month. At the same time, citizens in respect of whom this payment is assigned should not have anyone as a dependent, since in the presence of this legal fact, the amount of benefits is subject to a significant increase.

Common Mistakes

Error 1. A person became disabled and became depressed from lack of money and hopelessness.

Even if the second disability group is accepted, there is no need to despair. There are many enterprises in Moscow and other Russian cities that hire people with disabilities. This is beneficial for employers. By providing a couple of jobs, they receive tax benefits.

Error 2. Registration of sick leave for medical examination.

Leave for this event is not issued. This is a valid reason for absence from work. The person leaves for the duration of the commission and is listed on the report card as temporarily disabled.

Tax benefits
