The procedure for calculating the continuous length of service of an employee is regulated by the "Rules for calculating the continuous length of service of workers and employees in the appointment of benefits for state social insurance" was approved by the Resolution of the USSR Council of Ministers of 13.04.73 No. 252., and its effect was confirmed by the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of 15.03.2000 No. 508 two decisions of the Supreme Court (from 15.08.02 No. GKPI 2002-868 and from 20.08.02 No. GKPI 2002-771) and the Labor Code (Art. 423).
Instructions
Step 1
Continuous work experience is considered to be the duration of continuous work at the enterprise. However, sometimes periods from previous work can also be counted in continuous service. For example, in the event that the break from the moment of dismissal to employment for a new job has not exceeded certain deadlines.
Step 2
So, upon dismissal of their own free will, the break should not exceed three weeks. However, an employee can use this right only once a year, so if in 12 months the employee managed to quit 2 times of his own free will, then this period is not counted in the continuous length of service.
But if the employee changed his job for a good reason, then he has the right to expect that the period for maintaining continuous work experience is increased to one month. This is possible, for example, when entering a university or moving to another area.
Step 3
It is also important to note that for certain categories of employees there is a possibility of a longer break between dismissal and employment.
So, persons who worked in the Far North (and equivalent territories) who quit after the end of a fixed-term employment contract can look for a new employer for two months.
If an employee is forced to look for a new job due to the reorganization or liquidation of the organization, then his continuous work experience is maintained for three months.
The same period is provided for persons dismissed due to the inadequacy of the position held for health reasons and disabled persons.
Step 4
It is important that if a woman has a child under the age of 14 (or a disabled child under the age of 16), then her experience is not interrupted until the child reaches this age.
If an employee quit in connection with the transfer of his spouse to work in another locality, then he is not limited at all in the time of searching for an employer, in this case it will not affect the continuity of the length of service.
In addition, seniority is not interrupted for pensioners, if they quit their previous job of their own free will.
