The concept of culture has several meanings in Russian and is applicable in biology and social science.
It is the second aspect that shapes an entire science and sphere of public life. In 2021, cultural workers, as a sphere of educational and educational activities, are provided with certain social benefits. And in the calendar of Russian holidays there is a separate day dedicated to the activities of people who devote themselves to serving culture. The holiday was first celebrated in 1996; since then it has been officially included in the register, but is non-working only if it falls on a weekend. The official date of Cultural Worker's Day is March 25. In 2021, all citizens engaged in the creation, preservation and popularization of cultural heritage have the right to benefits. All social privileges entitled to cultural workers are reflected in official documents, that is, these benefits are required to be provided, regardless of the recipient’s region of residence, his age and state of health. The presence of rights to other benefits under a different status is complementary and does not exclude the main types of state assistance aimed at developing the cultural sector and improving the living conditions of its workers.

Amount and procedure for providing benefits


In the current year 2019, the previous list of government support measures has been retained.
Employees of cultural institutions, depending on their position, type of activity and length of service, employees have access to basic benefits that are relevant for Russian public sector employees. A separate category can be considered those employees who find the opportunity to combine their main work with the educational process. In particular, this category includes workers undergoing training in higher educational institutions of the country, on the basis of an agreement concluded with the employer. The benefits provided, their volume and types largely depend on cultural workers completing a higher education course.

Employees of various institutions who decide to improve their level of knowledge have the right to:

  • maintaining a job and position;
  • additional paid leave to prepare and pass the final certification;
  • maintaining and receiving an average salary during your studies;
  • compensation payments for transportation expenses during the study period;
  • the right to additional (extraordinary, unpaid) leave.

The listed benefits are provided to a working student, regardless of:

  • the position he holds;
  • chosen educational specialty;
  • affiliation of the educational institution with government agencies;
  • training initiatives (agreement with a cultural institution or an independent decision of the employee).

Thus, even employees studying at evening and correspondence courses, as well as employees studying remotely, can count on state benefits.

What you need to know about utility reimbursement for education workers in 2021

The law on compensation for utility services for education workers directly concerns only teachers (and retirees) working and living in rural areas or urban-type settlements. However, compensation for utilities is also available to teachers who live in the city. It all depends on the area. Each region of the Russian Federation has the right to independently decide whether a teacher living in the city can receive a subsidy to pay housing and communal services bills.

To receive benefits for utility bills in 2021, teachers, as before, need to contact the social security institution with an application. In addition to the application, it is also necessary to attach a package of documents, the list of which is established by the local government body.

Rules for granting additional leave


The procedure for providing an additional vacation period to working cultural students is regulated at the legislative level. The duration of the vacation depends on the course of study and the purpose for which a break from work is required. As part of the benefit for cultural workers, a student can count on vacations of the following duration in 2021:

  • for passing the session and passing the intermediate certification - up to 40 calendar days in the 1st and 2nd courses;
  • when studying in subsequent courses, as well as when receiving a second education under an accelerated program - up to 40 days;
  • graduate students and residency students (including part-time students) – 30 days. To this leave is added the time spent by the student on the road from his place of residence to the educational institution;
  • those working on doctoral or candidate's work are entitled to 3 to 6 months as part of the benefit;
  • students taking the course remotely or studying in evening groups at technical schools and colleges are entitled to a 40-day vacation and a 2-month break from work to prepare for the final certification.

If there is a lack of basic time, a cultural worker may take additional, unpaid leave. In 2021, such breaks are provided as a benefit for admission, closing academic debts and passing state exams. The duration of administrative leave depends on the purpose of its receipt and is:

  • 15 days – to prepare the applicant for admission to an educational institution;
  • Up to 4 months – for work on the thesis project and exams. Relevant for full-time students.

The basis for granting leave in 2021 is a summons certificate provided to the employee from the educational institution upon request. The employer provides vacation benefits in the form of an order.

Compensation for utilities for education workers

It is also necessary to indicate the conditions in which the applicant lives, meaning such categories of premises as a residential building, apartment, dormitory, communal apartment. It is worth noting that the established social support measures in 2021 can be used by all representatives of the education sector who fall under this category of benefits. It does not matter whether the citizen works part-time or works at his main place of work.

We recommend reading: Tax deduction for treatment from what refund amount

In accordance with the Federal Law of December 29, 2012, citizens working in the field of education and operating in rural areas have the right to monetary compensation. Reimbursement is provided for utility bills, including payments for living space, light and heating.

Compensation payments


Every year, cultural workers undergoing training can be compensated for transportation costs associated with moving between their place of residence and the educational institution. These benefits are relevant for employees who choose:

  • specialized programs (correspondence);
  • postgraduate studies, residency and other types of scientific and educational courses, including correspondence courses;
  • secondary specialized educational institutions.

Important! As part of this benefit, university students can be compensated for up to 100% of costs. Reimbursement for cultural workers studying under the VET program is 50%.

Other benefits


The Labor Code of the Russian Federation, in part 5 of Article 92, regulates the right of a working student to a shortened working day. The conditions for updating this feature in 2021 are as follows:

  • completing a training course in universities and colleges, during the period of passing the sessional certification - 7-hour working day in the period of 10 months before the start of the session;
  • graduate students, residents and interns studying part-time and remotely - similarly;
  • Students of secondary vocational education institutions, as well as evening and secondary schools, are entitled to an additional weekly day off as a benefit.

At the specified time, the salary of a cultural worker who is absent from the workplace is maintained at 50 percent of the average monthly wage, but not less than the minimum wage established in the region. Benefits are provided on an application basis.

How to apply for benefits in 2021


To receive additional leave, compensation payments or the right to a shortened working week, an employee of an organization must submit a written application to the employer. In case of refusal to provide benefits, cultural workers should contact the trade union or judicial authority. Other conditions are specified in the agreement concluded between the parties when formalizing the employment relationship. In this part, benefits may be provided for the following categories of employees:

  • students studying in programs in institutions without government participation;
  • employees taking a course at a specialized educational institution under an additional agreement with the employer;
  • working full-time students;
  • part-time workers.

Cultural workers who have an employment contract with an educational institution, that is, working in two places at the same time, are entitled to benefits in only one area. The citizen himself chooses which type of government assistance is preferable. According to the standards approved in Order No. 1368 of the Ministry of Education and Science, the basis for providing basic benefits to working students is a challenge certificate provided by the dean’s office of the educational institution.

In 2020, the issue will be raised to replace these benefits with monetary compensation in the amount of 1,200 rubles. However, as of today, all privileges continue to apply without any changes.

    Common mistakes

    The authorities promised to resolve the issue in 2021. As confirmation of serious intentions, the Government of the Russian Federation allocated budget funds for improvement and repairs in rural cultural centers. It is expected that the money will be allocated to increase salaries and provide benefits.

    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.

    In 2021, cultural workers will have benefits for utility bills ranging from 40 to 60%. The interest rate for the utility payment benefit will have a difference, which will directly depend on the position held.

    According to the current legislation, the right to receive benefits and rewards is available to those students and workers at the same time who receive education through correspondence or evening courses in accredited educational institutions. Such persons may receive additional cash payments if they have their first education.

    What privileges are provided to rural residents?

    To solve this problem, the government proposed grouping culture with other social spheres. But this practice was not confirmed, since it was not accepted by representatives of several areas. Cultural workers themselves spoke about their problems in 2021.

    In accordance with paragraph 5 of Article 20 of the Federal Law of October 6, 2003 No. 131-FZ “On the General Principles of the Organization of Local Self-Government in the Russian Federation,” local government bodies have the right to establish additional social support measures at the expense of the municipal budget.

    Each institution has its own payment percentage. It directly depends on the employee’s length of service, his professional activities, and qualifications. Among other things, an incentive portion is assigned to the payment annually.

    Stages of reform

    Cultural workers who have an employment contract with an educational institution, that is, working in two places at the same time, are entitled to benefits in only one area.

    According to the standards approved in Order No. 1368 of the Ministry of Education and Science, the basis for providing basic benefits to working students is a challenge certificate provided by the dean’s office of the educational institution.

    It is no secret that cultural workers are deprived of benefits, allowances and other privileges. Recently, the new year was declared the Year of Culture, and throughout the year, residents of the country were convinced of how deplorable the situation was with the encouragement of people working in the field of culture.

    Hello, in this article we will try to answer the question “Benefits for Cultural Workers in Rural Areas in 2021 in the Ulyanovsk Region.” You can also consult with lawyers online for free directly on the website.

    Not long ago, a meeting of the Council for Cultural Affairs was held, where the Head of State was present. Among other problems, the issue of increasing salaries for public sector employees was discussed. The President of the Russian Federation mentioned that an injection of funds in the amount of 4 billion rubles into the state budget would help increase wages. Such funding would be the first in previous years.

    The benefit for fuel delivery is based on a receipt from the company that supplies coal or firewood.

    Not all carriers have this right, so to receive such compensation, a rural cultural worker must find a supplier who has the right to provide receipts.

    The amount was the same for everyone, regardless of how many resources were spent. Since January 2012, the payment procedure has changed; now cultural workers receive a monthly payment of 100% for the following services:

    Problems of the sphere and attempts to solve them


    Despite the importance of the cultural sphere and its significance in public life, none of the reforms carried out by the government over the past three years have affected it.
    Currently, the average salary of representatives of “cultural” professions is fixed in the range from 13 to 25 thousand rubles, which is insignificant in the current economic conditions. As for the list of benefits for cultural workers, in 2021 it is still meager and causes dissatisfaction among citizens belonging to this category. The average annual deficit of funds required for the development of the industry is about 77 million rubles, which creates certain problems when considering the issue of increasing salaries and expanding the benefits program. The last of the real measures aimed at stimulating the industry can be considered an attempt to unite cultural workers with representatives of other areas provided from the state budget. But until 2021, plans for grouping were not implemented, largely due to the reluctance of industry representatives themselves.

    Being in fact state employees, theatergoers, museum workers, etc., have the right to benefits that are relevant for the entire category of workers, in particular: compensation payments for expenses on housing and communal services, preferential travel in vehicles, etc. For several years now, officials have been promising to solve the pressing problems of cultural workers; attempts to do this have been carried out since 2012.

    The real actions of the authorities in the period until 2021 include a two-stage reform. From 2012 to 2021, wages were indexed annually, on average by 1-3% per year. But during this period, not a single tangible benefit was provided, except for those to which cultural workers, like all other public sector employees, are already entitled.
