State Duma staff may face dismissal for refusing to vaccinate

Attitude towards & nbsp; unvaccinated and & nbsp; not & nbsp; employees of the State Duma apparatus will be tougher. According to & nbsp; four interlocutors of Vedomosti, Volodin said this on November 8 & nbsp; at the & nbsp; council of the lower house of parliament.

“ Volodin said that & nbsp; contracts will not & nbsp; be concluded with & nbsp; those state civil servants who & nbsp; who have no medical treatment, vaccinations against & nbsp; coronavirus, or with & nbsp; those who & nbsp; had been ill more than six months ago, but & nbsp; still not & nbsp; vaccinated, & nbsp; & mdash; said one of the & nbsp; sources. & mdash; & nbsp; A & nbsp; if the contracts & nbsp; have already been concluded, then & nbsp; their & nbsp; will be terminated & raquo ;.

“ Among civil servants, that is, employees of the apparatus and & nbsp; assistants of deputies, unvaccinated only 5%, but & nbsp; this is also & nbsp; a lot, & nbsp; & mdash; indicates one of the & nbsp; members of the State Duma council. & mdash; & nbsp; The state says that & nbsp; need to be vaccinated, and & nbsp; they pose a threat to & nbsp; health. Therefore, Volodin quite emotionally said that & nbsp; measures will be taken & nbsp; & mdash; up to & nbsp; dismissal.

According to an interlocutor in the State Duma apparatus, about 30 submissions for assistants had already been refused by November 9 due to the lack of a vaccination certificate.

“ In the & nbsp; apparatus of the Duma, all employees are civil servants, the size of their & nbsp; salaries, working conditions and & nbsp; qualification requirements are regulated by the relevant law. The & nbsp; assistants to the deputies have simpler conditions & nbsp; & mdash; as a rule, they come to & nbsp; fixed-term employment contracts, & nbsp; & mdash; notes Pavel Sklyanchuk, director of the Center for Monitoring Law Enforcement of Legislation. & mdash; & nbsp; With & nbsp; they have the right to enter the & nbsp; civil service, but & nbsp; can and & nbsp; remain civilians, and & nbsp; then their & nbsp; actual employer is not & nbsp; the State Duma apparatus, but & nbsp; the deputy himself. Therefore, a decision on the & nbsp; hiring or dismissal of a person can only be made on the & nbsp; basis of a deputy's statement.

In the & nbsp; future, perhaps, the approach to & nbsp; to & nbsp; deputies will be revised, it followed from & nbsp; Volodin's speech at the & nbsp; Council of the Duma, says the interlocutor of Vedomosti: “ If they continue to go to & nbsp; work and & nbsp; are not vaccinated & nbsp; should do tests for & nbsp; coronavirus at & nbsp; their own expense, and & nbsp; not & nbsp; at & nbsp; budget expense. Now testing is being carried out in the State Duma & nbsp; & mdash; in particular, deputies are tested before & nbsp; week of plenary sessions on & nbsp; Sunday and & nbsp; Monday.

Vedomosti '' sent a request to the & nbsp; department of the press service and & nbsp; information of the State Duma.

After the start of the coronavirus pandemic, Volodin was a public opponent of the transfer of deputies to the & nbsp; distance, this is his “ political position '', said the interlocutor on Okhotny Ryad. In & nbsp; March 2020 & nbsp; g. Volodin noted that & nbsp; talking about & nbsp; telecommuting in & nbsp; such a time is wrong. During the & nbsp; time of the pandemic, the State Duma introduced separate restrictions: for & nbsp; the work of journalists, the passage of guests and & nbsp; assistants to deputies on a & nbsp; voluntary basis.
