Business Standards
Catering enterprises may use or not use professional standards at their own discretion.
It is rumored that all waiters, bartenders, cooks and even cafe leaders are expected to meet the professional standards approved for them by the Ministry of Labour, as well as to assess their qualifications in a complex and costly manner prescribed by law.
This hearing is based on recent legislative changes, understood by many wrongs. It is already being discussed among the business owners in the HoReCa segment, and there are even Spanish publications on the Internet.
But it's a rumor! Profit and certification are not mandatory at all! You don't have to go anywhere and judge anyone unless you think you need to do that. No tickets.
And now everything is in order.
Profiles for various occupations have been approved by the Ministry of Labour over the past few years. The following standards are now in place for public and hospital staff:
- 33.008 The head of the catering company (Act No. 281 of the Order of the Ministry of Labour of Russia);
- 33.007 Head/Director of the Hotel/Innation Network (attached by Order No. 282N of the Ministry of Labour of Russia)
Article 195.3, part 1, of the FTC states: "If the Code, other federal laws and other regulations of the Russian Federation prescribe the qualifications required for a worker to perform a given job function, professional standards for these requirements are binding on employers" .
Anna Ustushenko, partner of the INTELECT-C Legal Group, head of the practice of " True Law "in its article " explains in detail that the standards specified above are binding only when specifically provided by law. Most posts, professions and professions continue to be of a recommendatory nature. The existence of a pro-standard does not necessarily involve it!
In the case of restaurant staff, it can be clearly stated that benefits, restrictions and special qualifications (such as doctors, teachers, etc.) have not been established by law.
Thus, catering enterprises may use or not use professional standards at their own discretion.
