The work book is the main document of the employee. The possibility of calculating seniority depends on the correctness of entering information into it.
The rules for making corrections in the work book are enshrined in the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of 04.16.2003. No. 225, as well as the Decree of the Ministry of Labor of Russia dated 10.10.2003, No. 69.
In order to correct the entry about the date of birth or about the surname, name, patronymic of the employee, you need to cross out the wrong entry with one line and make a new one at the top (that is, above the crossed out one). On the inside of the cover, notes are made about the documents on the basis of which corrections were made (for example, a passport). Such records are certified by personnel workers.
If the work book was started by the previous employer, a letter on the letterhead or a certificate of the mistake he made is required from him. This document is also marked on the inside of the cover of the work book.
If the employer, who made a mistake in opening the book, is renamed, a certificate of name change is needed. In the event of the liquidation of the organization, the employee will be able to confirm the ownership of the work book only in court.
Changes to education information are made without strikethrough by inserting data in new lines. The documents on the basis of which you can change the records of education can be: university certificates, grade books, etc. In this case, there is no need to write on the inner side of the cover.
The title page of the work book must contain the date of its completion, the signature of the personnel officer and the well-read seal of the first employer.
