Civil Service Law. Federal Law on the State Civil Service FZ No. 79 on the State Civil Service



To date, the federal law on civil service 79-FZ, the latest edition, includes seventeen chapters and 74 articles. This Federal Law was intended to regulate relations that are directly related to the civil service. Passage and termination of civil service and the position of employees are established in accordance with this law.

Federal Law on State Civil Service

The text of this Federal Law, traditionally for Russian laws, begins with general provisions. Further, civil service positions, their classification, registers, class ranks and qualification requirements are determined. The legal status of these employees is also determined.

The normative act establishes the procedure in accordance with which a person can fill a position. Special attention is paid to the service contract. The Federal Law states that certification of employees and a qualification exam are regularly conducted. For years of service, these persons are provided with an additional salary. Moreover, the allowance begins to accumulate after the first year of work. And in 15 years it will reach 30 percent of the salary at all. And if the conditions are recognized as special, then the allowance can be 200% of the salary.

The following concepts are also defined in the text:

  • guarantees;
  • encouragement / awards;
  • discipline;
  • staffing;
  • funding and oversight;
  • consideration of disputes.

All approved provisions create a whole system of public civil service, which operates throughout the territory of the Russian Federation - in the city of Moscow, in the Krasnoyarsk Territory, the Republic of Bashkortostan and other regions.

Basic provisions of 79 Federal Law on the state civil civil service

The first articles published the basics of this federal law on civil service in the Russian Federation. It all starts with the definition of basic concepts. For example, public positions are those positions that are adopted by Russian legislative acts in order to fulfill the duties of state bodies. The second article singles out a specific subject of regulation. They chose relationships that are directly related to the state civil service. The legal status of employees and admission to the civil service - all this is also the subject of this Federal Law.

The civil service system is divided into two areas - federal and regional (in individual republics, territories, cities). Also, this federal law approved a list of the main principles of civil service, among which are stability, availability of information, interaction with citizens, as well as the professionalism of employees.


The fifth article has formed a whole list of legislative acts that can regulate such relations. These are decrees of the President, and normative acts of the republics, and, of course, the Constitution.
The Federal Law also draws parallels between civil and municipal service. It is said that they are interconnected due to the unity of qualification requirements, accounting for length of service, unity of restrictions, as well as the correlation of essential conditions for wages and social guarantees.

When was the federal law on the state civil service adopted?

Since the beginning of 2003, the initiators of this federal law have been working on the foundations of its draft. The first edition was adopted by the State Duma on July 7, 2004. Literally a week later, his text was approved by the Federation Council. Article 71 states that this Federal Law on civil service entered into force exactly six months after its publication.

Every year, new federal laws enter into force, which, by their provisions, amend this Federal Law on civil service.

Initially, Law No. 79-FZ (), adopted by deputies of the State Duma in 2014, was developed as a kind of basis for creating a qualitatively different level of functioning of the civil service in the Russian Federation. Among other things, then it was about the need for openness of data, the availability of receipts, the prevention of corruption, the creation of a system of social guarantees for civil servants, etc.

Since the adoption of the above law, changes have been made to it 31 times. So, over the past year alone, Russian parliamentarians have made four amendments to it, the last of which came into force at the beginning of 2016. For example, the changes adopted in June 2015 concerned mainly the procedure for attestation of civil servants, in October 2015 - the procedure for the ownership of shares by civil servants and the clarification of the concept of "conflict of interest", and in December - the procedure for calculating the length of civil service, granting holidays and abolishing concept of law enforcement.

Law No. 79-FZ on civil service as amended in 2016.

The changes made, adopted by parliamentarians on December 29, first of all, affected the procedure for calculating the length of service in the civil service and the abolition of the concept of "law enforcement service". So, if the previous version of Art. 54 of the law contained an exhaustive list of periods of filling positions included in the total length of service, then according to the new edition of Part 2 of Art. 54 The right to expand this list was granted to the President of the Russian Federation. In addition, according to paragraph 5 of part 1 of Art. 54 The list of positions established by law, the filling of which entitles them to be included in the general experience, can be expanded by adopting other federal laws.

In addition, it was Law No. 395-FZ that removed the concept of “law enforcement service” from the legislative act on public service, which was replaced by the definition of “federal public service”. Corresponding changes were made to Art. 11, 54 of Law No. 79-FZ. Thus, in connection with the abolition of the above concept, employees of the justice and prosecutor's offices will be assigned class ranks.

Leave arrangements.

It is noteworthy that the very next day after the adoption of Law No. 395-FZ, parliamentarians voted, which also introduced some changes to the current legislation on civil service. So, according to the updated version of Part 6 of Art. 46 of Law No. 79-FZ, additional holidays are now provided not for irregular working days, but for official days.

Along with this, according to paragraph 9.1, which appeared in the law, the minimum annual paid leave cannot be less than 28 days, while at least one part of it must be inseparable two weeks. At the same time, according to clause 9.2, in exceptional cases, part of the unused vacation of a civil servant over the 28 days established by law can be transferred with his consent to the next year, or replaced by monetary compensation (clause 9.3).

Summarizing the above, we can conclude that the key changes in the legislation on the civil service were the abolition of the concept of "law enforcement service", the assignment of class ranks, the expansion of the list of periods of holding positions that give the right to include them in the general experience, as well as the revision of the procedure for granting annual paid holidays.
