What are the norms of work?

Article 159 of the LC RF is the guarantee basisrights of workers in the system of labor standards. First and foremost, it guarantees full state support for the creation of a system organization for the standardization of labor. Labor standards established by the relevant state bodies are a guaranteed minimum, which the employer has no right to lower.

Also, employees have guarantees that systemslabor standards will be determined by the employer only in the light of the established collective agreement or with the appropriate support of trade union bodies. From this it follows that the representatives of the collective have the full right to participate independently in the development of normative acts concerning the standardization of labor in the enterprise. They can also file an action to create unlawful acts in the justice system without obtaining a power of attorney from the employee whose rights have been violated.

There are several types of labor norms:

- rate of production. This indicator determines the number of products that a worker produces for a fixed period of time while ensuring normal working conditions;

is the norm of time. This indicator determines the amount of time an employee needs to produce one unit of output;

- standards of service. They designate the standard for servicing the provided mechanisms, established for each employee;

- the norm of the number of employees. This indicator determines the number of working personnel needed to perform the given work front in their own production area;

- Normalized production task. It is established exclusively with the use of time norms and development, assuming the definition of the full amount of work that each worker is required to perform for a shift or a day.

The norms of labor also differ in the spheres of application and are divided into the following types:

- Typical;

- single;

- branch;

- intersectoral;

- local.

The standard labor standard should be developed andapproved in accordance with the procedure established by the government. It is developed exclusively by certain federal bodies of executive power, after which it passes to the approval of the Ministry of Labor.

Typical norms are the minimum established by the state for each branch of the economy. The employer can depart from the officially approved norms only in favor of the employee.

Local labor standards are directlythe employer himself in accordance with the opinion of the representative body of the working group. Plenipotentiary representatives have the right to demand the cancellation of existing local normative acts in court, if their opinion was not taken into account when creating them.

Clear and rigorous adherence to establishednorms of labor is the direct duty of the employee. Thus the employer has the full right to demand observance of the prescribed norms. But all labor standards can be observed only when the employee is provided with normal conditions for a fruitful labor process. For this, the condition of facilities, premises, machinery and equipment must be in good order. Also, timely provision of technical documentation should be provided, and materials and tools for performing the work must be of proper quality.

This list of conditions should determine the rules andnorms of labor protection in the enterprise. In case of non-observance of at least one item, the employee has the right to apply to the authorities and demand that the necessary conditions for normal fruitful work be provided. If the employer does not provide this, the employee may be released from the obligation to comply with the prescribed standards. At the same time, idle time should be paid according to the staff schedule, as the stoppage of production occurred not through his fault.

Occupational safety standards are the basic document for the whole enterprise, therefore it is necessary to strictly adhere to the established procedure.
