Qualification directory for positions of managers, specialists and other employees

General provisions

1. The qualification reference book for positions of managers, specialists and other employees (technical performers) is intended to resolve issues related to the regulation of labor relations, ensuring an effective personnel management system at enterprises * (1), in institutions and organizations of various sectors of the economy, regardless of the form of ownership and organizational and legal forms of activity.

The qualification characteristics included in this issue of the Directory are normative documents intended to justify the rational division and organization of labor, the correct selection, placement and use of personnel, ensuring unity in determining the job responsibilities of workers and the qualification requirements for them, as well as decisions made on compliance positions held during certification of managers and specialists.

2. The construction of the Directory is based on job characteristics, since the requirements for the qualifications of employees are determined by their job responsibilities, which, in turn, determine the titles of positions.

The directory was developed in accordance with the accepted classification of employees into three categories: managers, specialists and other employees (technical performers). The assignment of employees to categories is carried out depending on the nature of the work primarily performed, constituting the content of the employee’s work (organizational-administrative, analytical-constructive, information-technical).

The names of employee positions, the qualification characteristics of which are included in the Directory, are established in accordance with the All-Russian Classifier of Worker Occupations, Employee Positions and Tariff Classes OK-016-94 (OKPDTR), put into effect on January 1, 1996.

3. The qualification directory contains two sections. The first section provides the qualification characteristics of industry-wide positions of managers, specialists and other employees (technical performers), widespread in enterprises, institutions and organizations, primarily in manufacturing sectors of the economy, including those receiving budgetary funding. The second section contains the qualification characteristics of positions of employees employed in research institutions, design, technological, design and survey organizations, as well as editorial and publishing departments.

4. Qualification characteristics at enterprises, institutions and organizations can be used as normative documents of direct action or serve as the basis for the development of internal organizational and administrative documents - job descriptions containing a specific list of job responsibilities of employees, taking into account the peculiarities of the organization of production, labor and management, and also their rights and responsibilities. If necessary, the responsibilities included in the characteristics of a particular position can be distributed among several performers.

Since qualification characteristics apply to employees of enterprises, institutions and organizations, regardless of their industry affiliation and departmental subordination, they present the most typical work for each position. Therefore, when developing job descriptions, it is possible to clarify the list of works that are characteristic of the corresponding position in specific organizational and technical conditions, and establish requirements for the necessary special training of workers.

In the process of organizational, technical and economic development, mastering modern management technologies, introducing the latest technical means, taking measures to improve organization and increase labor efficiency, it is possible to expand the range of responsibilities of employees in comparison with those established by the corresponding characteristics. In these cases, without changing the job title, the employee may be entrusted with the performance of duties provided for by the characteristics of other positions that are similar in content of work, equal in complexity, the implementation of which does not require another specialty and qualifications.

5. The qualification characteristics of each position have three sections.

The section “Job Responsibilities” establishes the main job functions that can be entrusted in whole or in part to the employee holding this position, taking into account the technological homogeneity and interconnectedness of the work, allowing for optimal specialization of employees.

The “Must Know” section contains the basic requirements for the employee in relation to special knowledge, as well as knowledge of legislative and regulatory acts, regulations, instructions and other guidance materials, methods and means that the employee must use when performing job duties.

The section "Qualification Requirements" defines the level of professional training of the employee necessary to perform the provided job duties and the requirements for work experience. The levels of required professional training are given in accordance with the Law of the Russian Federation "On Education".

6. The characteristics of specialist positions provide for within the same position without changing its name an intra-position qualification categorization for remuneration.

Qualification categories for remuneration of specialists are established by the head of the enterprise, institution, or organization. This takes into account the degree of independence of the employee in performing job duties, his responsibility for decisions made, attitude to work, efficiency and quality of work, as well as professional knowledge, practical experience, determined by length of service in the specialty, etc.

7. The Directory does not include qualification characteristics of derivative positions (senior and leading specialists, as well as deputy heads of departments). The job responsibilities of these employees, the requirements for their knowledge and qualifications are determined on the basis of the characteristics of the corresponding basic positions contained in the Directory.

The issue of distribution of job responsibilities of deputy heads of enterprises, institutions and organizations is resolved on the basis of internal organizational and administrative documents.

The use of the job title “senior” is possible provided that the employee, in addition to performing the duties prescribed by the position held, supervises the performers subordinate to him. The position of “senior” can be established as an exception and in the absence of performers directly subordinate to the employee, if he is entrusted with the functions of managing an independent area of ​​​​work. For specialist positions for which qualification categories are provided, the job title “senior” is not used. In these cases, the functions of managing subordinate performers are assigned to a specialist of the first qualification category.

The job responsibilities of the “leaders” are established on the basis of the characteristics of the corresponding specialist positions. In addition, they are entrusted with the functions of a manager and responsible performer of work in one of the areas of activity of an enterprise, institution, organization or their structural divisions, or responsibilities for coordination and methodological management of groups of performers created in departments (bureaus) taking into account the rational division of labor in specific organizational units. -technical conditions. The requirements for the required work experience are increased by 2-3 years compared to those provided for specialists of the first qualification category. Job responsibilities, knowledge requirements and qualifications of deputy heads of structural divisions are determined based on the characteristics of the corresponding positions of managers.

The qualification characteristics of the positions of heads (managers) of departments serve as the basis for determining job responsibilities, knowledge requirements and qualifications of the heads of the relevant bureaus when they are created instead of functional departments (taking into account industry characteristics).

8. The compliance of the actual duties performed and the qualifications of employees with the requirements of job characteristics is determined by the certification commission in accordance with the current regulations on the certification procedure. At the same time, special attention is paid to high-quality and efficient performance of work.

9. The need to ensure the safety of life and health of workers in the process of work puts the problems of labor protection and the environment among the urgent social problems, the solution of which is directly related to the compliance by the managers and each employee of the enterprise, institution, organization with current legislative, intersectoral and other regulatory legal acts on labor protection, environmental standards and regulations.

In this regard, the job responsibilities of employees (managers, specialists and technical performers), along with the performance of functions provided for by the corresponding qualification characteristics of the position, provide for mandatory compliance with labor protection requirements at each workplace, and the job responsibilities of managers include ensuring healthy and safe working conditions for subordinate performers, as well as monitoring their compliance with the requirements of legislative and regulatory legal acts on labor protection.

When appointing a position, it is necessary to take into account the requirements for the employee’s knowledge of relevant labor safety standards, environmental legislation, norms, rules and instructions on labor protection, means of collective and individual protection from the effects of hazardous and harmful production factors.

10. Persons who do not have special training or work experience established by the qualification requirements, but have sufficient practical experience and perform their job duties efficiently and in full, on the recommendation of the certification commission, as an exception, can be appointed to the corresponding positions in the same way , as well as persons with special training and work experience.
