List 2 for preferential pension in 2020

The production process has a developing effect on employees and production itself. But at the same time, there are working conditions that have a harmful effect on the human body. In Russia, there are enterprises with unfavorable factors: radiation exceeding permissible standards, the presence of toxic gases, the risk of infection, local and general vibration, noise, high and low air temperatures and many others. A list of hazardous professions has been created for employees of such enterprises.

Those who are related to him have the right to early retirement. A classification has been created that evaluates the degree of influence of unfavorable factors and the health problems that develop because of them. Based on it, the following categories of labor are determined: norm, acceptable, unfavorable, dangerous.

List of 2 harmful professions for early retirement

The assignment of pension benefits based on harmfulness is influenced by the very degree of the category.

As a result of regular exposure to harmful factors in the working environment, diseases develop. This leads to the development of disability. The state guarantees such citizens early retirement.

However, there is a category of employees in certain professions for whom retirement benefits are provided earlier than others. These are the specialties listed in the list compiled in 1991. It was approved with repeated amendments made in subsequent years.

There is a list of professions for early retirement

Preferential pension conditions for representatives of teaching specialties

The list of positions for teaching staff on preferential pensions deserves special attention. These are the following categories of employees:

directors;
deputies;
managers of specialists;
teachers;
educators (including preschool workers);
school teachers;
organizers of extracurricular activities;
educational psychologists;
speech therapists;
music specialists schools and colleges;
representatives of additional education programs.

Thus, there are quite a lot of professions that require early receipt of pension benefits. The lion's share of them is associated with heavy physical labor in unfavorable conditions, but their list is increasingly being replenished with mental types of specialties. Every employee must know their rights and capabilities in order to avoid misunderstandings and deceptions. Compliance with certain conditions also plays an important role, allowing you to get a well-deserved rest ahead of time.

Small lists of preferential professions

The pension legislation provides for conditions for early retirement for workers in other professions that were not included in Lists 1 and 2, but are also associated with difficult and harmful working conditions. The list of such professions is called “small lists” , and they are listed in paragraphs 3-18 of Part 1 of Art. 30 of Law No. 400-FZ.

Each type of work has its own conditions for retirement - certain requirements for age, general and special experience .

The table below shows some preferential professions, work in which allows you to retire early, taking into account the conditions of length of service and age:

Type of work	Floor	Standards (years)
Type of work	Floor	PV	OSS	SLS
Tractor drivers in agriculture, drivers of construction, road equipment, loading and unloading machines	AND	50	20	15
Drivers of trams, trolleybuses, buses on regular city passenger routes	M	55	25	20

	AND	50	20	10
Work related to flight control of civil aviation aircraft	M	55	25	12,5
Work related to flight control of civil aviation aircraft	AND	50	20	10

Note: PV - retirement age; OSS - total insurance experience; SLS - special preferential experience; F and M are women and men, respectively.

At what age do you retire early?

To calculate the age at which early retirement is guaranteed, it is necessary to consider the length of service and the gender of the employee.

The following standards apply to men:

total work experience – 25 years;
age – 55 years;
experience in the specialty - 12.5 years.

For women, other indicators are needed:

total work experience – more than 20 years;
age – 50 years;
experience in the specialty – 10 years.

When you can retire depends on the age, gender of the citizen, as well as work experience

The listed requirements apply to specialists indicated in list number 2. This guarantees them early retirement.

Important! List number 1 describes other grounds for early receipt of pension benefits.

Early labor pension for persons with incomplete preferential service

In accordance with paragraph 2, subparagraph 1 and paragraph 2, subparagraph 2, paragraph 1 of Article 27 of the Federal Law “On Labor Pensions in the Russian Federation” dated December 17, 2001, an old-age labor pension may be assigned early to those persons who have not completed the length of service in the relevant types of work established the first paragraphs of these subparagraphs, but have at least half of the required experience. Thus, citizens who have at least half of their work experience in underground work, in work with hazardous working conditions and in hot shops, entitle them to an early retirement pension according to List No. 1 (men - at least five years, women - at least three years and nine months), an old-age labor pension is assigned to men and women with a decrease in age provided for in Art. 7 of Law N 173-FZ, for one year for each full year of such work. The insurance period should be 20 years for men and 15 years for women.

Reducing the age for the early establishment of an old-age labor pension in proportion to the existing length of service in the relevant types of work can be presented in the form of a table:

Reducing the retirement age of persons

Experience in underground work, work with hazardous working conditions and in hot shops (List No. 1)	The emergence of the right to a pension with decreasing age
	men	women
At least 3 years 9 months	52 years old
4 years	51 years old
5 years	55 years	50 years
6 years	54 years old	49 years old
7 years	53 years old	48 years old
7 years 6 months	45 years
8 years	52 years old
9 years	51 years old
10 years	50 years

This is important to know: Maternity payments after 1.5 years in 2020 - extension to 3
Citizens who have at least half of the experience in relevant types of work with difficult working conditions, entitling them to an old-age pension according to List No. 2 (men - at least six years and three months, women - at least five years), an old-age labor pension is assigned: to men - with a decrease in the general retirement age by one year for every two years and six months, and to women - for every two years of such work. The insurance period must be 25 and 20 years, respectively.

The decrease in age in proportion to the experience in the relevant types of work can be presented in the form of a table:

How is preferential service calculated?

Hazardous experience is defined as the time spent working in a position in difficult or hazardous production. The name of the profession must be on the list discussed earlier.

In order to calculate the period of employment without errors, it is necessary to take into account certain features. Let's list the conditions.

The position/profession is important, as it is written in the documents. These are entries in the work book, orders for employment or transfer to another position. They literally must correspond to the list from the order. Provided that the position does not match and is not included in the list, problems will arise in registering seniority based on harmfulness.

Important! There is a possibility that the employee will lose his right to early retirement.

It is important that the job title matches list No. 2 of hazardous professions

What affects confirmation of the right to early retirement:

One of the determining grounds for confirming length of service is the class of harmfulness and/or danger. There is a legal procedure for confirming class by assessing working conditions. Previously, this practice was called workplace certification. Since 2020, it has been called a special assessment of working conditions. This is an important point for the employee and for the employer. Based on the established class of hazard/danger, the administration must reflect it in separate charges and payments under the category “insurance premiums”.

A mandatory requirement is the length of time, expressed as a percentage of work activity, during which the employee spends in hazardous or hazardous production conditions. That is, in a position or profession included in the list.

Important! Work experience will be counted as preferential, provided that the employee is engaged in a dangerous, difficult or hazardous profession from the list for more than 80% of the total time of activity.

Working conditions must be taken into account

Thus, we have identified several fundamentally important values for confirming the right to early retirement. These are age indicators, work experience figures and the percentage of production in a hazardous environment. Let's consider how the above indicators can be combined and compensate for each other's shortcomings. For example, if you have experience in hazardous work, its duration is insufficient. The operating period does not reach the specified minimum level.

The presence of “harmful” work experience in accordance with the lists and entries in the work book gives the citizen the right to pension provision ahead of schedule. The time to reduce work activity is determined from the following calculation. For men - for 2.5 years of work in a listed position, a reduction of 1 year is taken into account.

For example, the experience in hazardous production was 5 years. For example, this is work in a profession from the second list for 5 years, despite the fact that the remaining years do not relate to specialties from the list.

Important! An employee with such data will enter retirement benefits two years earlier than others.

If there is little “harmful” service, a person can still retire early, but the period for retirement is determined individually

For female employees, the conversion rate is “2 years in one”. If you have even two years of harmful work experience, retirement will occur a whole year earlier.

List of professions covered by preferential pension - latest version

In our previous reviews, we already touched a little on the topic of preferential pension provision, looked at how “preferential length of service” is calculated and what needs to be done to receive a pension early. Now let's talk more specifically about the list of professions for a preferential pension. What kind of work do you need to do to retire earlier than other citizens?

Let us recall that despite fundamental changes in the methods of calculating pensions, the new pension system retained the possibility of early retirement for certain categories of citizens. “Preferential” provisions are reflected in Chapter 6 of the new pension law (if anyone doesn’t know, this is Law No. 400-FZ of December 28, 2013).

In accordance with Articles 30 - 34 of this Chapter 6, the right to benefits is given to citizens of certain professions holding certain positions in certain places, organizations and institutions, lists of which are established by the Government of Russia.

What professions that fall under the preferential pension are listed in Law No. 400?

List of “preferential professions”

You can obtain accurate information from the Pension Fund of Russia

The first thing that is necessary for this is to find your specialty in the list that we provided above, or in Articles 30 and 31 of the law “On Insurance Pensions in the Russian Federation” and follow the links to the relevant Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation or an earlier regulatory legal act.

Next, you need to check whether your position and place of work are “preferential” ones, that is, allowing you to retire early. Please note that benefits are provided only in case of full compliance! If your place of work does not correspond to the approved one, for example, in terms of its organizational and legal form, the Pension Fund of Russia may not count the length of service there.

What to do if the organization previously had the status of “preferential”, but now, due to changes, it can no longer be considered as such? In this case, according to paragraph 5 of Article 30 of Law No. 400, length of service is counted on a general basis if the activity of the enterprise, despite the change in name or general fund, remains the same.

If both the position and place of work fully fit the concept of “preferential”, carefully read the conditions under which early retirement is carried out. Compare them with what you have. Do you have enough experience?

Be careful - the experience is counted as “preferential” according to the laws of the time when it was received.

That is, to count the experience of the USSR, you need to be guided by the relevant legislation. Since it is quite difficult to correctly calculate length of service at home if it was obtained at different places of work and at different times, it is better to apply for this directly to the Pension Fund. There, your documents will not only be examined quickly and efficiently, but they will also provide free advice on all issues that interest you.

You can come to the Pension Fund of Russia with documents at any time, but it is best to do this no earlier than 2 years before retirement.

Which authorities decide the issue?

Those who fall under the category of beneficiaries whose specialties are included in list 1 or 2, upon reaching age standards and length of service (general and special), must contact the Pension Fund. To confirm the right to seniority and subsequently provide it, fund employees will require a number of documents. They will concern entries in the work book and their compliance with current legislation. This list includes a personnel department registration card and a front card in T-54 format. You will also need time sheets.

Important! Traditionally, the Pension Fund requests documents confirming the identity of a citizen: a passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation, SNILS. When visiting a fund specialist, you must have the original work book in hand.

You need to contact the Pension Fund with a package of documents

The data confirmation and verification process may take a long time. If necessary, PF specialists can send additional requests to the place of work of the candidate for a preferential pension. They can request documents clarifying the right to a pension based on work in hazardous production conditions according to lists 1 and 2.

Important! It is often necessary to restore and provide medical documents indicating the fact of an occupational disease or disability arising in connection with special working conditions.

The final decision of the fund's employees will be an agreement to the right to register length of service based on harmfulness, according to list 1 or 2. Under certain conditions, a citizen may receive a refusal. Of course, it must be done legally. What reasons may pension insurance specialists consider suitable for refusal:

the citizen lacks documentary (legally correctly executed) evidence that can be used to confirm the fact of working in a hazardous enterprise;
the position does not belong to those indicated in regulatory documents (taking into account legal subtleties in the title of the position, specialty, even the name of the department);
the entries in the documents do not correspond to the required categories of work experience.

Sometimes early pensions are denied, but there are always good reasons for this

A citizen has the constitutional right to challenge the decision of the Pension Fund in court.

When should I start preparing for a preferential pension?

During personal consultations, insurance company specialists recommend that visitors to the Fund begin the process of preparing documents in advance, a year and a half in advance. The best option is to contact a Fund employee in advance to find out the details relating specifically to your case. In addition, there are changes in legislation that may significantly affect the timing of retirement under preferential conditions. Without contacting the Fund branch, the process of applying for a pension benefit will not begin. The law assumes that the beginning on the path to calculating a pension should be a personal statement from a citizen. Today, an email appeal has the same legal force. If there are no misunderstandings regarding the documents and the application is submitted on time, payments will begin to be credited to the applicant’s account upon reaching retirement age.

The documents required to apply for a preferential pension, a personal statement, must be taken to the Pension Fund office at the place of your registration. Traditionally, the method of transferring funds to a citizen, a future pensioner, is indicated. The documents indicate one of three possible options: non-cash transfer to a bank card or to a personal account.

Important! Some people prefer to receive their pension payments in cash at the bank or at home.

It’s better to start preparing for retirement in advance, about a year and a half in advance.

Needless to say, in the absence of documents requested by the state organization, registration of a pension benefit over time is not considered.

Preferential pension in 2020

To apply for disability benefits in 2020, a minimum length of service is required - at least 8 years. In this case, the smallest pension coefficient will be equal to 11.5. Let us recall that in 2020 the cost of the IPC of a preferential pension according to the list was equal to 78.28 rubles. And the fixed payment is 4801.11 rubles. Only those people who wish to retire upon reaching a certain age retire. They terminate the contract with the boss. However, they have the right to continue working. In addition, a citizen is not required to notify the employer of dismissal 2 weeks in advance. He simply writes a statement indicating the end date of his work activity. A preferential pension can be issued ahead of schedule if there is a reduction in staff or the organization is closed. However, in this case, the person should have no more than 2 years left before reaching retirement age.

The following conditions must also be met:

The citizen must register with the employment agency. There should be no vacancies for his employment.
The dismissal of an employee must be due to the liquidation of the organization or due to layoffs.
Work experience must be sufficient.

Actions in the absence of full experience

Let's consider the features that are encountered when calculating a preferential pension based on special conditions of work that have not reached the agreed length of service. “Harmful” work experience, which has reached the limit of more than 50% of the allotted time, for employees of the second list gives the right to a year of benefits for 2.5 hours worked in harmful conditions. This is the norm for men. For women, there is a recalculation “in two years” according to the specialty they have worked out.

Important! The length of service when calculating a pension based on harmfulness for occupations from lists 1 and 2 does not add up.

The length of service when calculating a pension based on harmfulness for specialties from lists 1 and 2 does not add up

Pension benefits are calculated on a general basis. Insurance deductions are taken as the basis, and the following cases provided for by law are also taken into account:

incurable disease;
disability for various reasons;
chronic disease.

Important! Pension Fund employees make calculations based on time based on total length of service and length of service based on harmfulness. Then the length of service is reduced taking into account a number of points that accompany the work activity of any employee.

The pension amount is calculated on a general basis

Exemption from labor is not taken into account for the following reasons:

vacations;
days of temporary disability;
maternity leave;
periods of downtime of the organization;
periods of training to improve qualifications;
business trips;
maternity leave.

Thus, there are quite a lot of nuances in calculating the time when a specialist from list 1 or 2 becomes eligible for early retirement. Given the new regulations, it is wise to entrust the calculations to specialists.

It is better to contact a Pension Fund specialist who will help calculate the pension amount correctly

Which medical specialists are entitled to retire after length of service?

List two for medical personnel with higher education includes the following specialties: employees of infectious diseases hospitals, TB departments. This also includes specialists whose work takes place in chemotherapy rooms and psychiatric hospitals.

Calculation rules for medical professionals are discussed in relation to specific calendar dates. If the length of service runs from January 1, 2002 to the current date, the following procedure applies. In this case, the calculation is simple - a year of work in a “harmful” specialty is calculated as a year of preferential service. It does not matter the departmental affiliation or the clinical profile of the organization.

Important! More “profitable” formulas are also possible. For example, if a specialist worked in a rural area or in an urban village, the year is counted as three.

If a health worker worked in a rural area, retirement conditions are more favorable for him

For the main list of medical specialists receiving benefits, the coefficient is “a year and a half”.

Working in government agencies of the Russian Federation outside the country does not provide benefits.

How to calculate a preferential pension for a teacher

For teaching staff and related professions, a preferential pension is provided taking into account the total length of service, which cannot be less than 25 years. In addition, only specialists from municipal and state educational institutions are taken into account.

Early retirement is provided to teachers, speech therapists, senior teachers, management staff and educators. But there are some caveats regarding operating periods.

The work of a teacher is taken into account as preferential length of service if it occurred before November 1, 1999. The same rule applies to heads of educational institutions.

The calculation is carried out as follows:

Peculiarities of retirement of various categories of workers

What benefits do workers employed in production in the Far North have? Employees who, according to their work record books, have 15 years of experience have the right to retire early. In other regions of Russia with severe climatic conditions, the period is 20 years.

Benefit recipients also include workers employed in welding production. Specialists of this profile can find themselves in both the first and second lists. For the fact of service in terms of harmfulness, the material on which welding is carried out does not matter. Whether it is plastic, fluoroplastic or metal, the right to early retirement remains.

All employees of the Far North have the right to early retirement

Important! The second list identifies specialists in resistance or thermite welding. Let us remind you that for registration of length of service, the fact that the position code completely matches the code in the documents is important.

Preferential professions - concept

Work, the performance of which is characterized by increased complexity and negative effects on the worker’s body. In order to compensate for the damage caused by working conditions, the state provides the opportunity to go on vacation earlier.

On the legislative side, the register of preferential professions is enshrined in federal law number 27, which is called “On Labor Pensions of the Russian Federation.” Also in Russia, federal law number 400 is in force. Here, in the sixth chapter, the conditions for receiving a preferential pension are listed.

A preferential pension is the assignment of pensioner status to a citizen long before he reaches the age required by law.

When early retirement is determined, attention is paid to general and specific signs:

Payments are periodic. The assignment of a pension is made for a long period, implying a lifetime payment.
Work experience must meet the requirements of the given profession.
Special experience must also correspond to what is prescribed by law for a given type of enterprise and position.

Payments related to early exit may take the form of additional payments made to wages and in the form of an independent amount that replaces wages.

Special work experience

When assigning length of service based on harmfulness, special length of service is considered. This is a working period that occurred during activities under special working conditions. What could be the reason for calculating this length of service? The following are taken into account:

if the activity in question dates back to the period before 1996 - entries made in the work book;
work experience for the period after 1996 - an extract from the individual personal account.

Special experience is taken into account

The name of the profession must match the entries in the Unified Tariff and Qualification Directory (UTKS). If the records are completely identical, no additional identification documents will be required. Otherwise, a Fund employee will send a request to the enterprise to obtain certificates containing the numbers and dates of the records of interest.

Important! This information must contain the grounds for calculating a preferential pension. Such papers include an enrollment order and an extract from the staffing table.

To correctly calculate the required length of service, you need to know the paragraphs of Government Resolution No. 516 of 2002.

The grounds for preferential length of service are:

period of main work activity; probationary period; transfer of a pregnant woman to light work on the basis of a medical certificate; days due to temporary disability; vacation dates (main and additional); transfer for a period of less than 30 days to another place of work.

When calculating the pension, it is taken into account when the employee was on vacation, sick leave, etc.

The following cases are not taken into account when calculating preferential length of service:

leave to take exams;
a period of unpaid leave;
downtime due to temporary removal from the work process.

Indexation of benefits

The practice of indexing pensions is retained for specialists on lists 1 and 2. Payments are indexed in connection with inflation. It is important to know that this is true for non-working pensioners. If a pensioner continues to work, that is, is employed according to a work book, there will be no indexation for him. It will only apply if the pensioner is dismissed from his position.

Pensions for working pensioners are not increased

Increases and additional payments to the existing pension are carried out in accordance with regulations. Recalculation of existing payments is carried out on August 1 of each year. Retired specialists included in lists 1 and 2 can count on changes in the following cases: in fact assigned to a different disability group, age 80 years or more, and other reasons. In this case, changes will be controlled by employees of the Pension Fund. If a pensioner has information about his additional contributions to the Pension Fund, he must provide information on his own initiative. The next month after submitting the application, the pension will come with a recalculation, if there are grounds for it.

Important! Payments of preferential pension benefits for disability are made on a general basis, that is, monthly.

“Preferential” pensions are also paid monthly

Often people who fall under the category of beneficiaries, but have not yet achieved the required work experience, ask the question: is the state going to abolish the practice of retirement based on service for harmful reasons?

Experts in the field of labor law and pension insurance give a negative answer. The practice will continue, but the rules and requirements for employers of enterprises with harmful, difficult, and dangerous working conditions will be tightened.

Necessary control over deductions

Retirement according to the second grid of harmfulness according to preferential length of service List 2 The Government of the Russian Federation has established increased coefficients for enterprises where there are harmful working conditions that pose a danger to the life and health of workers. Additional sources of financing make it possible to increase pension payments.

Once every five years, workplaces and working conditions are certified. After a full examination and conclusion of the commission, the enterprise is assigned a certain qualification. If, after certification, the fact is indicated that the enterprise has harmful working conditions that are dangerous to the life and health of the employee, then the future pensioner will be accrued a differentiated percentage of 2 to 9%. The interest rate primarily depends on the nature and hazardous working conditions. Certification of workplaces and the enterprise as a whole can take from one day to several weeks.

After certification at the enterprise, the commission issues its conclusion. In conclusion, the commission members name the category to which the production or enterprise corresponds. There are 4 categories in total. This is the optimal, acceptable, harmful and dangerous category.

When determining the category for an enterprise, all factors of the labor process must be taken into account, namely chemical, biological and climatic conditions. The size of an employee’s pension upon entering a well-deserved retirement will directly depend on the coefficient of insurance contributions that the employer paid to the Russian Pension Fund. There are cases when in an enterprise with hazardous working conditions, black bookkeeping is kept and wages are issued exclusively in an envelope. Under such conditions, a future pensioner involved in work with hazardous working conditions should not count on an increased preferential pension. It will be much more difficult to achieve justice.

Refusal to receive benefits

Quite often there are cases when, when applying to the Pension Fund of Russia, a pensioner learns that he has been denied a preferential pension. There can be many reasons for refusal. For example, the employee received a “gray” salary, the employee worked illegally, that is, he was not officially enrolled in the company’s staff due to harmful working conditions, there is no documentary evidence that the employee worked in a certain production, insurance premiums for the employee were not paid, the employee held a position, which does not correspond to one of the profession positions from list 2, there is no data on actual work experience.

If a pensioner categorically disagrees with the position of the Russian Pension Fund, he has the right to apply to the judicial authorities to resolve the situation. An application with a claim to the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation is written at the place of registration of the applicant. To avoid misunderstandings, experts recommend contacting qualified lawyers who will represent the interests of the applicant in such cases. A lawyer will be able to competently draw up a claim, statement of claim and express the applicant’s position in legal language.

Lawyers recommend that it is advisable to contact the Pension Fund one year before retirement to clarify all the details. If there are some discrepancies, they can be urgently resolved with the employer and then adjustments can be made to the Pension Fund. To clarify all the details and obtain information, you must make a request to the Pension Fund. To do this, you need to write a personal application addressed to the head of the Pension Fund. Review of the application takes 10 business days, after which information from the personal account is sent by email or can be received in person. If you have any questions, you can always contact a Pension Fund employee for advice and clarification of other questions and details regarding your personal account. The pension begins to be accrued and paid as soon as the Pension Fund receives all the relevant documents granting the right to receive a preferential pension.

Lawyer answers

Good afternoon I worked as a manual typesetter in a publishing house (printing company) for 11 years. Total experience today is 30 years. How many years do I have left until retirement?

If your profession exactly matches the entries in your work book with the one indicated in the question, the case belongs to list number 2. A preferential pension for hazards in this case is provided for 10 years of experience. Total work experience is at least 20 years. Under these conditions, your retirement age is 50 years old. It is worth making an appointment with the Pension Fund at your place of residence to confirm all the data based on documents. If there are no complaints, you must write a statement.
