Commentary on Article 17

1. The provision of workers with special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment should be carried out in accordance with the Model Industry Standards for the free issue of special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment to workers and employees, approved by the Ministry of Labor of Russia (Bulletin of the Ministry of Labor of Russia. 1998. N 8 - 12, 1999. N 1 - 4).

Changes and additions to the norms for the free issuance of certified personal protective equipment to employees are made by the Ministry of Labor of Russia at the proposals of the federal executive authorities and executive authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation (subclause 12, clause 8 of the Regulations on the Ministry of Labor and social development Russian Federation, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of April 23, 1997 N 480 as amended by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of September 16, 2002 N 676).

These standards are binding on the employer and cannot be reduced. Collective agreements, industry (tariff) and other agreements may provide for the issuance of personal protective equipment in excess of the Model Industry Norms (at the expense of profits remaining at the disposal of organizations).

The procedure for providing workers with personal protective equipment is regulated by the Rules for providing workers with special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment, approved by the Decree of the Ministry of Labor of Russia of December 18, 1998 (Bulletin of the Ministry of Labor of Russia. 1999. N 2. C. 15; N 12. C. 55).

The above Rules establish that the Model Industry Standards provide for the provision of workers with personal protective equipment, regardless of which industry, workshops, sites and types of work belong to, and also regardless of the form of ownership and organizational and legal forms of enterprises. For example, a machine operator engaged in the machining of metal, regardless of which organization he works in, is issued personal protective equipment in accordance with the Model Industry Standards for the free issue of special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment to workers in engineering and metalworking industries.

Employees whose professions and positions are provided for in the Model Norms for the Free Issue of Special Clothing, Special Footwear and Other Personal Protective Equipment, employees of cross-cutting professions and positions in all sectors of the economy are provided with personal protective equipment regardless of in which industries, workshops and in which areas they work , unless these professions and positions are specifically provided for in the relevant Standard Industry Standards. For example, a battery worker working in a motor transport organization should be provided with personal protective equipment in accordance with the Model Regulations for the free distribution of special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment to workers in cross-cutting professions and positions in all sectors of the economy.

For the same category of workers employed in underground mining in the mining industry, free distribution of personal protective equipment should be carried out in accordance with the Model Industry Standards for the free distribution of special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment to workers in the mining and metallurgical industry and metallurgical industries in other industries.

The names of the professions of workers and the positions of specialists and employees, provided for in the Model Industry Norms, are indicated in accordance with the Unified Tariff and Qualification Reference Book of Works and Professions of Workers, Qualification guide professions of workers who are set monthly salaries, the Qualification Directory for the positions of managers, specialists and employees.

When concluding an employment contract, the employer must familiarize employees with the Rules for providing employees with personal protective equipment, as well as with the norms for issuing personal protective equipment to them.

Personal protective equipment issued to employees must correspond to their gender, height and size, the nature and conditions of the work performed and ensure labor safety. Personal protective equipment for workers, including foreign-made ones, must comply with the labor protection requirements established in the Russian Federation and have certificates of conformity. The purchase and issuance of personal protective equipment to employees that do not have a certificate of conformity is not allowed.

In some cases, in accordance with the specifics of production, the employer may, in agreement with the state labor protection inspector and taking into account the opinion of the relevant trade union body or other representative body authorized by employees, replace one type of personal protective equipment provided for by the Model Industry Standards with another that provides full protection against dangerous and harmful production factors. For example, a cotton overall can be replaced by a cotton suit or a bathrobe and vice versa, leather boots (semi boots) - rubber boots and vice versa, leather boots (semi boots) - tarpaulin boots and vice versa.

If such personal protective equipment as a safety belt, dielectric galoshes, goggles and shields, a respirator, a gas mask, a protective helmet, hard hat and others are not specified in the Standard Industry Standards, they can be issued by the employer to employees based on the data of attestation of workplaces, depending from the nature of the work performed with a period of wear to wear or as on duty. Relevant rules are included in collective agreements and agreements.

The on-duty personal protective equipment for collective use provided for in the Model Industry Standards should be issued to employees only for the duration of the work for which they are provided, or can be assigned to certain jobs (for example, sheepskin coats - at outdoor posts, dielectric gloves - at electrical installations, etc. etc.) and be transferred from one shift to another. In these cases, personal protective equipment is issued under the responsibility of the foreman or other persons authorized by the employer.

Warm special clothes and warm special shoes (suits, jackets and trousers with insulating lining, fur suits, sheepskin coats, felt boots, earflaps, fur mittens, etc.) should be issued to employees with the onset of the cold season, and then can be handed over to the employer for organized storage until the next season. The time for using the said personal protective equipment is set by the employer, taking into account the opinion of the relevant trade union body or other representative body authorized by employees, based on local climatic conditions.

Pupils of any form of education, schoolchildren, students of educational institutions of primary vocational education, students of educational institutions of higher and secondary vocational education for the period of industrial training (internship), masters of industrial training, as well as employees temporarily performing work in professions and positions provided for by the Model industry standards, for the duration of this work, personal protective equipment is issued in a general manner.

Brigadiers, foremen performing the duties of foremen, assistants and helpers of workers whose professions are provided for in the relevant Model Industry Standards are issued the same personal protective equipment as workers of the corresponding professions.

The personal protective equipment for workers, specialists and employees provided for in the Model Industry Standards should be issued to these workers even in cases where they are senior in their position and profession and directly perform work that gives them the right to receive these personal protective equipment.

Workers combining professions or constantly performing combined work, including in integrated teams, in addition to personal protective equipment issued by the main profession, should additionally be issued (depending on the work performed) and other personal protective equipment provided for by the Model Industry Standards for Combined professions.

Personal protective equipment purchased and issued to employees must have a certificate of conformity. The costs of the employer to provide personal protective equipment are included in the cost of products (works, services).

The employer is obliged to organize proper accounting and control over the issuance of personal protective equipment to employees in a timely manner. The issuance of personal protective equipment to employees and the delivery of personal protective equipment are recorded in a personal card of the established form.

Employees must take care of the personal protective equipment they receive, be sure to use them during work and promptly inform the employer about the need for dry cleaning, washing, repair of special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment.

The terms of use of personal protective equipment are calculated from the date of their actual issuance to employees. The period for wearing warm special clothes and special footwear also includes the time of their storage in the warm season.

If, for reasons beyond the control of the employee, special clothing and special footwear have become unusable before the end of the wear period, or have been damaged in places designated for their storage, or stolen from there, the employer is obliged to repair special clothing and special footwear or issue other serviceable personal protective equipment to employees .

When issuing such personal protective equipment to employees as respirators, gas masks, self-rescuers, safety belts, mosquito nets, and others, employers must arrange for employees to be instructed on the rules for using and the simplest ways to check the serviceability of these equipment, as well as training on their use. In addition, employers should conduct regular tests and checks of these tools to ensure they are in good working order. After checking the serviceability, a mark (brand, stamp) should be made on the personal protective equipment about the timing of the next test.

Control over the correct use of personal protective equipment by employees is carried out by the employer.

For the storage of personal protective equipment issued to employees, the employer provides, in accordance with the requirements of building codes and regulations, specially equipped rooms (dressing rooms).

In some cases, where, under the conditions of work, the specified procedure for storing special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment cannot be established (for example, at logging sites, at geological exploration), they may remain with employees after hours, which should be agreed in sectoral internal labor regulations or in collective agreements. In these cases, the employees themselves are responsible for the safety of special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment.

The employer is obliged to organize proper care for personal protective equipment: timely dry-clean, wash, repair, decontaminate, decontaminate, neutralize and dedust special clothing, as well as repair, decontaminate, decontaminate and neutralize special footwear and other personal protective equipment.

Labor disputes regarding the issuance and use of special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment are considered by labor dispute commissions.

Control over the implementation by employers of the above Rules for providing employees with special clothing, special footwear and other personal protective equipment is carried out by state labor inspectorates in the constituent entities of the Russian Federation.

2. If the employee is not provided with personal protective equipment (in accordance with the norms), the employer is not entitled to require the employee to perform labor duties and is obliged to pay for the idle time that has arisen for this reason in accordance with the legislation of the Russian Federation (clause 5, article 9 of the Law). Downtime through no fault of the employee is paid at least 2/3 of the average wages employee (part 1 of article 157 of the Labor Code).
