A civil servant is a person who is in the service of his state. At the same time, the variety of professions and activities is determined exclusively by the interests of the country. How to become a civil servant, what salary and bonuses can you expect and how exactly do they accrue? Here are the main questions for those who decided to choose this direction in life.

Who is a civil servant?

The activities of any country are quite a diverse, complex and comprehensive process. It is the state that ensures the stable operation of all branches of the economy. And it is clear that special management and coordination bodies are created to ensure the stable functioning of this system.

A civil servant is a person who occupies a certain position related to the provision of state activities. At the same time, he receives the salary of the appropriate level from the country's budget.

State service is carried out in such key areas:

• Civil activity;
• military service;
• Law enforcement activity.

Features of the work of all civil servants are fixed in the special law "On the Basics of Civil Service in the Russian Federation". It is here that the main points of the functioning of such an important system are indicated. Civil servants have the right to be exclusively citizens of the state. But exceptions are possible, which are determined by appropriate decrees or laws.

The salary of civil servants depends not only on the direction of activity, but also on rank and length of service. In this case, each link has a special system of charging and payments.

History of civil service in Russia

Despite the fact that the Russian Empire existed for more than one century, officially officials appeared here only by the middle of the 17th century. Earlier it was more likely just employees.

It was in the 17th century that relevant decrees and laws appeared that regulate the activity of this stratum of the population. And already then it was possible to say that a civil servant is a person with special powers and status. But most often they abused their position and enjoyed special privileges.

The main first law for this caste is the "Table of Ranks" of 1722. Almost all the officials were appointed to the post for life.

In 1917, with the advent of the new Soviet government, the "Decree on Civil Service" was published. All old employees were dismissed, and a new composition of state power was staffed by revolutionaries and "ordinary workers". Initially, the administrative apparatus of the USSR consisted of 300,000 specialists. Over time, their number increased significantly and by the end of the 20th century. Exceeded 1.5 million.

At the same time, the official incomes of civil servants did not exceed the average salary of an ordinary worker. However, the specialists had a number of privileges in the form of free service in special sanatoria, shops, etc.

Categories of civil servants

The salary of any specialist depends directly on his qualifications, position and experience. According to the current law of the Russian Federation, civil servants are divided into five main groups:

1. Junior specialists. Ordinary employees.
2. Senior specialists. Middle managers.
3. Leading civil servants.
4. The main specialists.
5. Higher state posts. These are the leaders and their assistants.

Also, all civil servants are assigned appropriate qualification grades or special ranks. They are also established by law. After all, a civil servant is a qualified employee with an appropriate education. These categories are assigned after certain examinations:

• Referent - for junior civil servants.
• The adviser of the Russian Federation - to the senior experts. And also to the deputies.
• State Advisor of the Russian Federation. For employees of 1, 2 and 3 classes.
• Actual state adviser of the Russian Federation.

Income

Salary is not the only source of livelihood. In any enterprise, the salary of an employee consists of several parts. That's the income of civil servants are composed of the salary itself and additional payments. They can be several at once, depending on the rank and qualification of the specialist.

Such payments include:

• Extra charge for long service. For example, for a period of 1 to 5 years, the employee is paid 10% of salary monthly. Further for each next five-year period, 5% is added. The maximum size of this allowance is almost one-third of the salary.
• Award for particularly difficult and important tasks. It is determined individually for each public service body.
• Extra charge for working with a state secret or for special conditions of service. At the same time, its size can exceed the salary by almost 2 times.
• Monthly promotion.
• Material assistance and a lump sum payment for the registration of leave.

A civil servant is an official whose salary, like that of any other employee, depends on the results of his activity and the efficiency of his work.

Payment procedure

In addition to basic payments and statutory rewards, there are many other incentives that regional authorities can set. At the same time (due to indexation), the law also provides for an annual increase in salaries to civil servants.

The salaries of this class of specialists are quite small: from 3000 to 6000 rubles. Again, everything depends on the rank and duration of each official.

In the formation of the annual salary fund, in addition to the main articles, a special reserve is provided, consisting of:

• Supplements for long service. Its size is three salaries.
• Payments for work with state secrets. This is the salary of civil servants, increased by 1.5 times.
• Monthly cash promotion.
• A salary for a special class rank. It is equal to four employee salaries.
• Various bonuses for the performance and overfulfilment of the planned targets - 200%.

The salary is paid, as a rule, twice a month. The first part - advance (up to 40%), and the rest - directly a salary with all kinds of extra charges. As with everyone, every month, all major deductions are made to various state funds.

Also, a regular civil servant has the right to a paid hospital (the amount depends on the total salary).

Calculation of pension

A civil servant is a profession that any able-bodied citizen of the Russian Federation, who has a certain level of special education and relevant skills, can get. And each such employee has the right to expect a fair pension provision.

At the same time, his accrual and amount depend on the type of activity of a particular civil servant. There are two types of pensions: for long service and age. They can be paid simultaneously and, as a rule, after the termination of the employee.

The calculation of such social benefits, according to the latest data, takes into account the size of salary, rank or rank, as well as the qualification of a specialist. The last place of work of an employee is also taken into account.

The minimum pension can not be less than the subsistence level. Therefore, its amount starts from 5-7 thousand rubles.
