Do benefits for teachers working in rural areas apply to their family members?

Legislative justification

The basic rights, responsibilities and benefits of teaching staff in educational institutions are regulated by the Federal Law “On Education in the Russian Federation”.

In particular, the document describes what benefits are provided for teachers in the city and village.

Let's list the main points:

1. A salary supplement for a category, which is assigned based on the results of certification of a teaching employee. The amount of the premium is regulated by local regulations.
2. The right to reduced working hours. In accordance with the order of the Ministry of Education and Science No. 1601, up to 20 hours for teachers - speech therapists and defectologists.
3. The right to additional professional education in the profile of teaching activity (at least once every three years).
4. Extended basic annual paid leave. Its size can be up to 56 days for certain categories of workers, for example, for teaching staff in universities and colleges (Government Decree dated May 14, 2015 No. 466);
5. Long-term additional leave for up to a year at least once every ten years of continuous teaching activity
6. The right to early assignment of an old-age insurance pension after 25 years of teaching activity;
7. Providing teaching staff in need with residential premises out of turn within the framework of a social rental agreement.
8. The right has been established to provide compensation for expenses for living quarters, heating and lighting for teachers working in villages and towns. In accordance with the Government Decree of October 26, 2013, its amount is 1,200 rubles. Funding comes from the federal or regional budget, depending on the affiliation of the educational organization in which the teacher works. Regions may increase this amount at their discretion.
9. Guarantees and compensation have been established for teachers participating in the state final certification.

The legislator left the opportunity for regions to establish their own benefits for teaching staff.
In particular, to attract graduates of secondary vocational education and universities to teaching activities. Find out the nuances of local legislation from the regional or district administration. At the state level, there are no benefits or special conditions for mortgage lending for the purchase of housing by employees of educational institutions. But many regional authorities have established their own special conditions for this category of citizens. In particular, in the Moscow region there is a program under which the teacher is paid 100% of the cost of the purchased housing, the citizen remains to pay the accrued interest for 10 years. This program is carried out with the support of AHML. In the Perm Territory, needy employees of educational institutions in villages and villages are provided with a house with a garden plot. In the Rostov region, rural teachers are compensated for 100% of housing and communal services.

To attract young people to school, the state has developed a number of measures.

Thus, a university graduate has the opportunity, both in the city and in the village, to receive lifting allowances:

• in case of employment within 3 months;
• upon provision of a “red” diploma (increased salary if there was no break between the end of training and the start of teaching);

• the conditions for assigning a preference have not been met. The rules developed by the subjects are taken into account;
• there are violations of the labor agreement.

Housing and communal services benefits for rural teachers are terminated if the citizen used funds intended for the purchase of fuel for other purposes. Similar rules apply if the teacher used the purchased fuel for a commercial purpose. Also, the basis for ending the provision of relief is the interruption of teaching experience.

To maintain the possibility of using the exemptions, certain conditions must be met. A citizen makes payments on time and reports on receipts every six months, then problems with the accrual of benefits do not arise. In addition, the teacher must inform the social security authority that his status has changed to that of a retired or dismissed teacher.

conclusions

Teachers are heatedly discussing the question of whether utility benefits will be canceled for rural teachers or their urban colleagues. It should be noted that such changes are not planned in the near future. Therefore, those who have a legal basis to seek state support can collect the necessary package of documents and, along with the application, submit it to the social protection authorities.
