Full-time training pension experience. When can and when should studies be included in the experience? Accounting for studies in the length of service, depending on the type of educational institution

10.02.202227.05.2017

The issue of seniority has always worried working people. After all, time is an irreplaceable resource, and the future directly depends on what it will be spent on. Thinking about the upcoming pension, the employee, first of all, tries to take into account his seniority, on which the time of occurrence and the amount of future pension payments will depend. Do the precious months and years devoted to training correlate with the calculation of seniority, and how exactly? Let's consider in more detail.

What are the internships

Seniority- this is the period of time when a person was employed or engaged in socially useful activities defined by law. A document confirming the length of service of a person is usually a work book. If it is lost, certificates of salary accrual to the employee can play the role of proof of official employment.

Before the reform of 2002, the concept of " general work experience» - the sum of all periods of work activities referred to in legislative acts, excluding breaks. At that time, such periods also included full-time study at a university or special educational institutions. A record was made in the labor record about the period of study.

Since the beginning of 2002, the new Federal Law “On labor pensions in the Russian Federation” has replaced the general labor pension with the term “ insurance experience". From the definition itself, the main feature is clear, according to which the activity is suitable for seniority: it is necessary that during the employment of a person legal contributions to the Pension Fund (in Soviet times - contributions to state insurance) should be made.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION! It is not taken into account whether there were breaks between employment: "continuous experience" has been abolished.

Sometimes in special documentation there may be other concepts of experience that affect the calculation of various accruals:

public service experience- work in government organizations;
continuous experience- a concept that was liquidated on 01/01/2007. It is not taken into account when calculating accruals for pensions and sick leave. It may turn out to be significant only when compared with the insurance experience after a year of reform (if the continuous experience exceeds the insurance one, the pension will be calculated based on the continuous one);
special insurance experience- work that gives the right to the citizens employed in it for early retirement.

Studentship and experience

The years that a person devotes to learning a chosen profession, studying at a college, college, university, are rather long time periods related to future employment, directly or indirectly. Will they be covered by insurance? We reason logically and do not contradict the law.

The time of study in any educational institution is not mentioned in Art. 12 of the Federal Law No. 400 “On insurance pensions” dated 01.01.2015. A student does not make pension contributions, and this is the main argument for a negative answer.

NOTE! If a student worked before the start of studies and he has a work book, the insurance record will include work time, but not study time. When, after graduating from an educational institution, he finds a job, the experience will grow, because breaks are not taken into account in it.

The only exception

The law will include studies at a university in the insurance period only in two cases:

an educational institution subordinate to the Ministry of Defense of Russia;
the university trains future law enforcement officers (Ministry of Internal Affairs department).

Students of these universities are equated to military conscripts, and this activity, as Article 10 of the Federal Law “On Pensions in the Russian Federation” says, is included in the length of service.

If the employee studied during the Soviet era

For a large number of people preparing to receive a pension, the time of study ended before 1991, when the concept of total work experience was in effect, which also included stay in educational institutions.

However, Art. 10 of the Federal Law of December 17, 2001 excludes this time from the length of service, even if a pension was accrued to such a citizen even before the reform.

Part-time work while studying

A student in the learning process can officially find a job:

by concluding an employment contract for a “conscript” (for example, during vacation months);
performing home work under an employment contract;
by choosing a formalized remote collaboration.

Since, while working, he will also make pension contributions, respectively, these periods will go to his length of service.

The student has the right to start saving for retirement

According to the laws of the Russian Federation, having received a passport at the age of 14, a student can officially find a job. Working at such a young age, a citizen of the Russian Federation is already accumulating funds on his account for a future pension, increasing his insurance experience.

Studying while working - but what about experience?

It is not uncommon for working citizens to receive in-service training. Naturally, a question arises among employees who are studying: how does the time spent on study correlate with work experience, because at this time they do not work?

Art. 173 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation guarantees employees sent for training by the employer or who entered independently, additional study holidays, for which payment continues to be made in the amount of average earnings. Since wages have been saved, the due PFR contributions also pass on time. Thus, the study leave that the employee takes, as well as all types of paid holidays, will be counted in the length of service.

Study and special work experience

When a person works in difficult conditions and / or in harsh territories, such as the Far North, his work experience is calculated according to a special, preferential scheme - with a special coefficient. Therefore, the employee gets the opportunity to take a well-deserved rest before the usual time.

If, during study, at the same time as work, an employee performed his labor duties in dangerous and harmful conditions or in specified territories, the procedure for calculating special preferential service is applicable to him. These conditions can be confirmed by the presence of an appropriate entry in the work book.

When else, while studying, you can not lose experience?

In the life of employees, there are moments of different duration when they do not actually fulfill their labor function, but the experience is not interrupted. Naturally, the experience will continue to increase if a person is also studying during such a special period. By law, the insurance period continues to go if the employee is busy:

military service or cooperation with the Ministry of Internal Affairs;
improvement of health (with an official certificate of incapacity for work);
your baby up to 1.5 years of age;
looking after a disabled person of the 1st group (including a child), an elderly relative (after 80 years);
being on the road for employment in another area, if the referral is received from the employment service;
public works;
departure of the conclusion;
evidence of the groundlessness of bringing to criminal responsibility.

IMPORTANT! The listed periods are included in the insurance period if before these events or immediately after them the person was employed and deducted PFR contributions.

Summarize

The period of study will be included in the length of service if, at the same time as studying, a person was officially employed and made deductions from his salary to the FIU. The only exception is education in subordinate educational institutions.

How much a person will receive a pension depends on how much service he has been accrued. Therefore, this period is given great attention.

In order to receive a decent payment in the future, a person must officially work and transfer a certain amount to the PFR account. Let us analyze the situations when the years of study are included in the length of service.

After this period, the amount of insurance premiums that are transferred to the account of the Pension Fund is taken into account.

Attention is also paid to certain periods when a citizen was not engaged in labor activity.

In recent years, insurance experience has begun to play an important role . This period includes all periods when a person worked or did not work, but made contributions to off-budget funds. It is this period that is now taken into account when calculating the pension. Therefore, in the future, these people will receive state support.

Attention! For people studying in various institutions before 2001, there is a chance to include this period in the total experience.

At the technical school

Work experience also includes the process of preparing for a profession. But the answer to the question of whether the period of study at a technical school is counted in the length of service can be answered in the negative.

At university and institute

There are some exceptions to the rules in which education in a higher education institution
included in the work experience. This applies to such situations:

If the student is studying full-time e, but at the same time officially works at any enterprise.
The person already worked officially, and after that he entered the university. But in this case, there should be a corresponding entry in the work book.
No formal employment, and never was, but every month a person makes a voluntary contribution to the account of the Pension Fund.

The peculiarity of the latter option is that a person decides to independently make payments. If he does this for seven years, then they protect 3.5 years.

If there is such a desire, you need to visit the FIU and conclude a formal contract. The institution's specialists perform calculations to determine how much money a person should deposit into the account each month.

Doesn't have to be paid monthly. If it is not possible to pay frequently, the amount designated by the fund can be paid once, at the end of the year.

Develop a special co-financing program. It is thanks to her that you can make contributions at will. This opportunity is provided to both working and housewives. Those who are officially employed can increase the amount of future pension payments in this way.

This is due to the fact that people who receive a profession in institutions of this kind receive the status of military personnel undergoing conscription training.

Postgraduate and internship

In graduate school, a person is prepared to receive the highest level of qualification. At the same time, a person does not just study, but works on a subject, prepares to write a dissertation, or conducts other activities. Often graduate students remain in universities as teachers.

But the laws of the Russian Federation do not take this fact into account and include it in education.. Therefore, this period is not included in the seniority, which may affect the calculation of future payments.

This feature also applies to residency. Since during its passage a person breaks away from work and it is included in the training system.

Only an internship can be included in the experience. Although this is a form of education, a person works in his specialty. Doctors-interns are officially employed, work and receive payment for their work, and also pay contributions to the Pension Fund. Therefore, they have the same rights and benefits as other employees.

If a person combines graduate school and residency with work and fulfills job descriptions, then this will be considered seniority. Usually, such a bonus goes to teachers, psychologists, educators, medical workers. They can combine their careers with their studies and are approaching retirement.

Informal employment has no effect on the length of service.

Study, in which institutions is included in the length of service

There are certain institutions, during the course of training in which a person gets the opportunity to increase his experience. This applies to schools of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

These systems pay for education in specialized institutions, so study is equated with work.

There are also certain circumstances regarding the passage of training in the Soviet period. According to the resolution for 2003, a person has the right to apply the legislation that was in force at that time.

If there are conditions for accrual of experience for study, then this must be confirmed with the help of special documents. It is necessary to check that there are all entries in the work book, and that the Pension Fund has the fact of confirmation of contributions. If the student, at his own request, was involved in the payment of contributions, then he must provide an agreement indicating the terms and amounts of contributions. Without these documents, it will not be possible to include the time spent on study in the length of service.

More information on the topic of the article in the video story:

Some types of training count as work experience. This is possible if a person studies at an institute and at the same time officially works, and also studies in certain institutions. The same applies to internships, as the student does the work. It is quite realistic not to work officially and get experience, but for this you will have to make contributions to the FIU. The required amount is calculated by the fund's employees. A person is told how much he should pay for the year and he decides whether to pay every month or give everything at once.

Legal advice:

1. In 1979 he worked at a factory, then he entered the institute and graduated. Is seniority included in the pension?

1.1. Igor, since 2015, the fat labor pension has been called an insurance pension and is calculated for the period when insurance payments were made. If you worked and studied at the same time, then the years of study will be counted in the experience. If they just studied, they won't enter.
