A day to go on vacation

I ask you to clarify whether the actions of my boss, who provides me with an additional day to leave for my processing of 24 hours, are legitimate. After all, the working day is 8 hours, and the working week is 40 hours of working time.

Senior Lieutenant Alexander Olenin. Trekhgorny-1, Chelyabinsk region.

Yes, they are legitimate. In accordance with Article 11 of the Federal Law "On the Status of Military Personnel", the total duration of the weekly service time of military personnel serving under a contract, with the exception of their participation in events, the list of which is determined by the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation, should not exceed the normal duration of weekly working hours established by federal laws and other regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation. Involvement of the specified military personnel in the performance of military service duties in excess of the established duration of weekly service time in other cases is compensated by rest time of the corresponding duration on other days of the week. If it is impossible to provide the specified compensation, the time of performing military service duties in excess of the established duration of weekly service time is summed up and provided to military personnel in the form of additional days of rest, which can be added to the main leave at the request of the specified military personnel. The procedure for recording service time and providing additional days of rest is determined by the Regulations on the procedure for military Service.

Duty on weekends and public holidays

Does the head of the medical service have the right to force me to be on duty on weekends and holidays, if the duties are paid only for 8 night hours, the rest-by reducing the working day (working in the day shift and 2-3 round-the-clock shifts per month at the medical center). I have two children (14 and 5.5 years old), my husband is a soldier, is on combat duty.

Elena KARASEVA. Kaluga region.

The service time of female military personnel is regulated by the daily routine established in the military unit and is determined by the time required for them to perform their official duties in their full-time position.

In accordance with Article 53 of Directive No. 315/3/1165 of the General Staff of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation of April 5, 1993, female military personnel are not involved in guard, garrison and internal service (with the exception of daily outfits in women's dormitories).

page 46

The duration of the weekly service time of female military personnel should not exceed the normal duration of the weekly working time established by the labor legislation of the Russian Federation-40 hours (Article 42 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). If female military personnel are involved in performing military service duties in excess of the established duration of weekly service time and it is impossible to compensate for this with rest on other days of the week, such time is summed up and provided to them in the form of additional rest days, which can be added to the main vacation. Female military personnel should be provided with at least one day of rest per week, but at least six days of rest per month. As a rule, rest days are provided to them on weekends and holidays, and when they are involved in these days to perform military service duties, rest is provided on other days of the week.

However, taking into account clause 9 of Article 10 of the Federal Law "On the Status of Military Personnel", which provides that female military personnel raising children without a father (mother) enjoy benefits, guarantees and compensations in accordance with federal laws and other regulatory legal acts on family protection, motherhood, Articles 162, 163 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation (it is prohibited to employ pregnant women and women with children under three years of age to work at night and overtime, and it is prohibited to employ women with children between three and fourteen years of age to work overtime (disabled children-up to sixteen years of age). without their consent), it can be concluded that it is impossible to attract women military personnel with children of the specified age to carry daily outfits.

For family reasons

I'm resigning for family reasons. Length of service 27 years, 23 calendar years, 4-preferential.

How much salary do I get when I quit? Is there any compensation for non-received personal property? What benefits do I have when I retire?

Senior Ensign Nikolai BRODYUK, Yasny-2, Orenburg region.

We answer the first question. In accordance with clause 3 of Article 23 of the Federal Law "On the Status of Military Personnel", military personnel who are dismissed from military service after reaching the age limit for military service, for health reasons or in connection with organizational and regular activities are paid a one-time allowance for the total duration of military service:

less than 10 years - in the amount of 5 salaries of monetary support;

from 10 to 15 years - in the amount of 10 salaries of monetary support;

from 15 to 20 years - in the amount of 15 salaries of monetary support;

20 years or more - in the amount of 20 salaries of monetary support.

The amount and procedure for payment of the lump-sum allowance specified in this paragraph to citizens dismissed from military service on other grounds shall be determined by the Government of the Russian Federation.

About the second question. Yes, it should. In accordance with paragraph 2 of Article 14 of the Federal Law "On the Status of Military Personnel", at the request of military personnel undergoing military service under a contract, instead of issuing certain types of clothing, it is allowed to pay them monetary compensation in the amount of the cost of these items.

Thus, military personnel have the right to receive compensation instead of issuing clothing, such payment is made at the request of the serviceman. The right to receive monetary compensation arises from the date when a serviceman has the right to receive items of clothing property that are subject to personal use. At the same time, the right of a contract serviceman to receive the specified monetary compensation is not absolute, since paragraph 8 of Article 13 of the Internal Affairs Code of the Russian Federation defines the duty of military personnel to be in uniform, clean and neatly dressed. Accordingly, if the serviceman does not have the necessary items of clothing or they are worn out, the commander of the military unit is obliged to demand that they receive them.

And the third question. When dismissed for family reasons, the benefits and compensations provided for citizens dismissed from military service apply only to persons dismissed on preferential grounds (reaching the age limit for military service, health status or organizational and staff measures, and also take into account the availability of seniority.
