The minimum wage in Russia since January 1, 2016 is 6204 rubles. In 2015, the federal minimum wage was 5965 rubles.

The minimum wage is used to regulate wages and determine the amount of benefits for temporary disability, pregnancy and childbirth, as well as for other purposes of compulsory social insurance.

What do employers need to change from 2016 in connection with the innovation?

Salary less than minimum wage

If the salary (salary plus compensation and incentive payments) for the fully worked norm of working hours per month for some employees is less than 6204 rubles, then from January 1, 2016, the salary of these employees must be increased. An employee can receive an amount of less than 6204 rubles in his hands. (at the expense of).

The average salary cannot be less than the minimum wage

Average earnings for holidays, business trips, etc., paid in 2016, must be at least the new minimum wage in terms of full month.

Benefits per month and minimum wage

Employees who did not have earnings in 2014-2015 or their earnings did not exceed 6204 rubles. for each month of the billing period, benefits for temporary disability, pregnancy and childbirth and child care must be calculated based on the minimum wage. True, this only applies to those who have the disease ( maternity leave) began on January 1, 2016 and later (part 1.1 of article 14 of the Law of December 29, 2006 No. 255-FZ).

And for those employees whose insurance period does not exceed 6 months, benefits for temporary disability and for pregnancy and childbirth should not exceed 6204 rubles. per calendar month

Good day! This year there is some urgent excitement in the legislation. Initially, as a matter of urgency, on July 11, 2016, they adopted or it is also called OKVED 2014.

But I missed a rather important moment for entrepreneurs from 07/01/2016 the size of the minimum wage was increased and if this question had not touched me myself, then I would not have known about these changes.

This situation directly affects fixed contributions which an individual entrepreneur must pay for himself, because it is the minimum wage that affects their size.

Increase in the minimum wage from July 1, 2016

On the basis of Federal Law No. 164 of 06/02/2016, the minimum wage was increased from 6204 rubles. up to 7500 rubles, the law is signed by the office of the President of the Russian Federation.

It is only on 2 pages, and for clarity, I post the Federal Law No. 164 page No. 1:

Federal Law No. 164 page No. 2:

As can be seen from the dynamics of the increase in the minimum wage from 6204 to 7500 rubles, that is, the minimum wage increased by 1296 rubles.

In all 13 years of business, this is the biggest increase and, most interestingly, so quickly and urgently.

Usually, the minimum wage is taken for the whole year, that is, it is unchanged throughout the year. And this year it was changed in the middle of the year. The changes concern only the minimum amount of work (that is, a person cannot receive a salary below this amount)

Fixed IP contributions from 07/01/2016

Well, this will not affect us entrepreneurs in any way. The calculation of the entrepreneur's insurance premiums remains at the old level.

For 2016, we will pay fixed. (by clicking on the link you will see the calculations that I made for 2016, that is, for all 12 months)

THERE WILL BE NO CHANGES IN THE CALCULATION OF FIXED CONTRIBUTIONS IN 2016 AND THE OLD MINIMUM WATCH OF 6204 RUB IS USED FOR CALCULATIONS.

Currently, many entrepreneurs use this online accounting to calculate taxes, contributions and submit reports online, try it for free. The service helped me save on the services of an accountant and saved me from going to the tax office.

The procedure for state registration of an individual entrepreneur or LLC has now become even easier, if you have not yet registered your business, prepare registration documents for free without leaving your home through a verified by me online service: Registration of an individual entrepreneur or LLC for free in 15 minutes. All documents comply with the current legislation of the Russian Federation.

What can you say? Got through. The minimum wage in Russia traditionally rises once a year, on January 1st. In the current 2016, it also rose. But somehow ... suspiciously weak. Especially against the backdrop of what is happening in the country. Now the deputies have decided to correct their shortcomings and at the same time to throw work to accountants and entrepreneurs. And then suddenly they got bored ...

Who will not be affected by the new minimum wage in 2016?

1. The new level of the minimum wage will not yet affect the calculation of personal contributions of entrepreneurs. According to the old (as early as 2000) law, these contributions are calculated throughout the year based on the level that was adopted on January 1.
2. This change will go largely unnoticed in regions where local minimum wages are already set at more than high level. When setting salaries, employers are required to focus on both minimum wages - federal and regional - without fail choosing the maximum.

List of regions where the local minimum wage is lower than the new one

The main part of the worries associated with raising the minimum wage will fall to the share of enterprises from these regions:

The entry “only budgetary institutions” means that different minimum wages are established in the region for budget institutions and the private sector - and at the same time, the minimum wage for state employees is lower than the new federal one.

How to raise the salary of employees before the July minimum wage?

Let's not consider the answer option "just take it and raise it." After all, the question is how to make it as convenient as possible.

The fact is that, strictly speaking, you do not have to raise the salaries of employees to the level of the current minimum wage. According to labor law, the amount of final payments should be higher than or equal to the minimum wage.

That is, you have two options:

• after all, raising salaries is the “final solution to the issue”, but for this you will have to draw up quite a lot of documents;
• introducing allowances is easier and more convenient, but then you will have to look after them so that the amount of payments suddenly does not turn out to be lower than the minimum wage.

Let's explore both ways.

We bring the monthly salary of the employee to the minimum wage

This way we will go through three stages:

• director's order to change staffing generally;
• the order of the director to increase the salaries of specific employees;
• additional agreements to employment contracts with specific employees.

The first two orders, in principle, can be drawn up in any form. The first must necessarily indicate the specific positions in which the salary increases, the new salaries and the date from which these new values ​​​​are valid.

Yes, this is what accountants and directors of large enterprises look like at the time of the increase in the minimum wage.

The document must be officially familiarized with the employee responsible for the issuance of wages to employees. It is not necessary to introduce the whole state to him.

But the second order, drawn up on the basis of the first - an order that will list specific persons occupying positions in your company for which the salary was increased - must be communicated to all the people listed in it.

And the last stage is additional agreements that are concluded with persons whose salary you bring to the new minimum wage. In these additional agreements, you should re-state the payment clause and be sure to indicate the date from which this change is effective.

We introduce allowances up to the minimum wage

This method is especially beautiful in that, if you wish, you can once enter allowances not for a fixed amount, but for the difference between the salary and the minimum wage. In this case, you will no longer have to worry about reissuing documents and signing a lot of orders, even if the “mad printer” starts introducing a new minimum wage every two weeks.

So, to use this path, you need to issue two documents:

• a new annex to the regulation on remuneration adopted in the organization (or a new regulation on remuneration);
• additional agreements to employment contracts are approximately the same as in the first option.

If, for example, you do not have a regulation on remuneration and are not planning to introduce it, you can technically write everything you need in any other internal document of the appropriate level.

You need to write something like this:

1. Employees of Horns and Hooves LLC, whose salary is below the regional minimum wage, are entitled to an additional payment.
2. The amount of the additional payment is equal to the difference between the regional minimum wage and the salary of the employee.

Penalties for non-compliance of salaries of employees with the minimum wage

Let's talk about sad things. Actually, I hope that you will not have to face what is described in this paragraph - after all, this entire article is written precisely so that you do not get fined. But it still needs to be said.

So, the Code of Administrative Offenses and the Criminal Code establish the following penalties for employers who do not comply with the minimum wage.

1. For the first violation officials and individual entrepreneurs pay a fine of 1,000 to 5,000 rubles, and organizations - from 30,000 to 50,000 rubles.
2. Relapse is punished as follows: individual entrepreneur fined 10,000 - 20,000 rubles, the manager is fined the same amount or disqualified for 1-3 years, the organization is fined 50,000 - 70,000 rubles.
3. It was all the CAO. And now the Criminal Code: if a salary below the minimum wage is paid systematically, that is, for two months, then the offender may be asked under Article 145.1 of the Criminal Code. And this is a fine from 100 to 500 thousand rubles, forced labor for up to three years without the right to hold certain positions, or even imprisonment for the same period.

Is it legal to pay an employee a salary below the minimum wage?

How has the minimum wage changed in recent years?

Well, we talked about the urgent, let's talk about the global. As a matter of fact, we will not say many words. Let's get by with a few numbers - they will be much more eloquent, and you can draw conclusions yourself.

What will happen to the MOT next?

This is a hard-won decision, last week the president signed the corresponding law. This measure will affect about 5.5 million people. Well, in the future, as we agreed, as I spoke about at the social forum, we will strive to bring the minimum wage up to the subsistence level of the working person by 2020. Dmitry Medvedev, Prime Minister of the Russian Federation

In general, we will hold on.
