What happens if a person resigns from the police?

Dismissal, regardless of the reasons, is a process regulated by legal norms that ensure the protection of human rights. On the last working day, the employer is obliged to:

• provide the employee with a work book and other required documents;
• make payments required by law.

Employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, namely the Department of Internal Affairs and the police, are a special category of citizens , close in status to military personnel. Their duty is to protect the state and its citizens from criminal attacks, therefore various types of support and social guarantees are provided for them, including upon dismissal and retirement.

What kind of money is paid to those who want to leave the authorities?

Benefits and other monetary payments in connection with dismissal from the internal affairs department are regulated by Federal Law dated July 19, 2011 No. 247-FZ “On social guarantees for internal affairs bodies employees...” (hereinafter referred to as the Law on Social Guarantees for internal affairs bodies employees). The size and types of payments depend on how many years the employee serves in the authorities and on what grounds he resigns.

At your own request until retirement

If an employee has not served enough years to retire, but wants to resign, he is entitled to the following payments:

1. Salary. In the system of internal affairs bodies, it is called “monetary allowance”, the detailed procedure for its calculation is established by Order of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia dated January 31, 2013 No. 65. This concept includes salary salary, which is divided into salary by position and salary by special rank. If an employee resigns of his own free will, he is paid a salary only for the days actually worked in the month of dismissal (find out the procedure for voluntarily dismissal from the Ministry of Internal Affairs here).
2. Award for conscientious performance of official duties. During service, various additional monthly bonuses and allowances are added to the basic salary, for example, for achievements or dangerous conditions of service. However, upon dismissal without the right to a pension, the employee cannot count on them. The only bonus that is paid in case of resignation of his own free will is for conscientious performance of duties. The size of this bonus is 25% of the salary, and it can be deprived only if there are serious grounds, such as violation of discipline or the commission of an offense.
3. Compensation for remaining vacation days . Vacation pay is subject to payment for the current year of service if it has not been used. The basis for such compensation is an order from the manager indicating the exact number of days to be taken into account. To calculate compensation, you need to divide the amount of monetary allowance by the average number of days in a month. The result is the average daily earnings, which is then multiplied by the total number of unused vacation days for the entire period of service.
4. One-time benefit in accordance with clause 7 of Art. 3 of the Law on Social Guarantees for Police Department Employees.
5. Material aid. In accordance with paragraph 8 of Art. 1 of the Federal Law of June 30, 2002 No. 78-FZ “On monetary allowances for employees of certain federal executive bodies”, employees of internal affairs bodies have the right to financial assistance in the amount of at least two salaries per year. If this opportunity has not yet been used in the current year, the employee has the right to submit a report on payment of financial assistance upon dismissal.
6. Severance pay. It is paid to internal affairs bodies employees dismissed before retirement for good reasons (clause 10, article 3 of the Law on Social Guarantees for internal affairs bodies employees).

Upon retirement

Employees of departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are a preferential category of citizens for whom a special procedure for retirement is provided in accordance with Art. 5 of the Law of the Russian Federation dated February 12, 1993 No. 4468-1 “On pension provision for persons who served in military service.” You can retire if you have served a sufficient number of years, reached a certain age, or become disabled.

To retire you need:

• having at least 20 years of special experience, which includes service in the structures of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, government or military service, and a number of other periods;
• having a total work experience of 25 years or more, of which at least 12.5 years have been service in law enforcement agencies.

As for the age limit for service, this age threshold varies for different ranks, but the minimum threshold is 45 years.
For some it will be higher. Upon dismissal with retirement, the following payments are due:

1. Lifetime pension . Its size depends on the length of service, region, position and rank at the last place of service.
2. Vacation compensation. Before retirement, an employee can receive payment for all unused vacations during his service:
   for regular annual leave - in full;
3. and for additional leave (for length of service, for serving in harmful or dangerous conditions, for irregular working days) - at the rate of 1/12 of the leave for each month of work in proportion to the time of service. This calculation formula is established by the Rules on regular and additional leaves (approved by the People's Commissariat of Labor of the USSR dated April 30, 1930 No. 169).
4. One-time benefit in accordance with the Law on Social Guarantees for police officers.
5. Bonuses for conscientious performance of official duties and financial assistance are paid on a general basis.

Certain categories of citizens have the right to receive additional pension supplements for length of service:

• those who lived to be 80 years old;
• disabled people of group 1;
• non-working pensioners supporting dependents.

In addition to basic payments, upon dismissal from the police due to disability or injury while performing his duties, the employee is entitled to a one-time allowance in the amount of 2,000,000 rubles (Clause 5, Article 43 of the Federal Law of 07.02.2011 No. 3-FZ “ About the police").

2. For non-standard ones - by acts of other federal executive authorities (for example, order of the State Courier Service of the Russian Federation dated November 29, 2011 No. 388).
