The Mission is not feasible
The department offered to cut only the states of the structures, where the number of available vacancies not more than 7%. In this case, reduce the number of no cost to the Interior Ministry, the Federal Tax Service, FMS and Rosreestra – it will reduce their ability to provide public services, according to the Ministry of Economy.
Also there offered to give cutting authorities, who asked the Kremlin and the White House to increase their staff. Should not touch, and the organization where the results achieved by optimizing the number of officials entering new expense infortehnology. In addition, the agency suggested a return to the idea of consolidation of departments, says RBC.
in 2011-2013, according to the decree of President Dmitry Medvedev has held a 20 percent reduction in the state civil service, on the whole quite successful, then Kremlin in 2013 announced the freezing of salaries of civil servants in 2014 – more precisely, on the refusal of the indexation of wages in the public sector. The idea is freezing salaries, together with the previous moratorium on the opening of the new rates would have to dramatically increase the number of vacancies in the civil service – the more so due to historically low unemployment rate in the Russian Federation and the kind of personnel policy departments by unfilled vacancies in the civil service was rarely below 15%. Therefore, reduction of staff in 2011-2013 was pretty painless – declined largely unfilled rates, “Kommersant».
As resources for the remaining ten percent reduction in state institutions is not enough, the White House invited to discuss the issues of optimizing the number of state functions – that is to determine the downsizing reduction responsibilities of ministries and organizations to think about new technologies and human resources personnel policy, as well as the transfer of certain powers to the regions of the Russian Federation. Finally, the Economy Ministry proposes to return to the idea of consolidation of departments – staff reductions can be achieved at the expense of “economies of scale” and the terms “head-on” reducing the number of civil servants adjusted to reflect the May decree of President Vladimir Putin’s N601, which identifies targets of growth of public services provided – proposed pace of construction of “electronic government” still higher than the proposed rate of reduction gosvakansy. According to “Kommersant”, until the final decision on the issue is not accepted.
«Kommersant” writes that presented on the eve of the Rosstat data on the number and salaries of the central offices of the federal government show that the situation with the staff they highly unusual. Firstly, the freezing of salaries for civil servants on the average monthly salary in the central offices did not have the effect of, if not the opposite: if in the first half of 2013 the average growth rate of wages there were 19.9% in the first half of 2014, they grew at a rate of 32.6% per annum (the judiciary and the prosecutor’s office – 70.1%), the average salary in this sector amounted to 92 thousand. rubles. The number of actually being in the civil service in central government officials has not increased significantly and now stands at 39.3 thousand. Persons. This is slightly higher than in 2010, the central office is about 10% of the total number of employees in these authorities (Rosstat accounts for them without the FSB, Federal Security Service and the Foreign Intelligence Service, a number of other law enforcement agencies). Wage growth, again significantly higher than the growth rate of wages in the economy, did not alter filling of vacancies, at least in Moscow: it is about 80%, with the proposal of the Ministry of Economy “less than 7% of available vacancies can not be cut” in the executive branch comply with the Foreign Ministry, Ministry of Regional Development, FAS and the FCS, in the judicial branch of government – the Investigation Committee. According to the statistics from Rosstat, the labor market, at least for federal ministries, the size of the salaries scale reductions of staff and formal orders of the Kremlin and the White House on this matter depends very little, says the publication.
In mid-May Russian Prime Minister instructed the Finance Ministry to prepare proposals to reduce. They were to be submitted to the government before July 1, 2014, RBC reminds.
Perpetuum Mobile
This is not a decision to cut the first one taken in the last years, the Russian government. In 2010, their numbers were reduced by 20%. However, according to Rosstat, the end of 2013 actually succeeded in reducing the number of state employees by 8% compared with the beginning of 2010.
Even in the wake of the so-called 20 per cent reduction in 2010, “Nezavisimaya Gazeta” explained as it occurs.
« If we talk about the bureaucracy, then it is very simple reduction. Reduced empty jobs, which are always held in reserve. Further reduced staff technicians. In addition, along with the reduction is always the creation of new structures, and people just flow from one to the other. Russian bureaucracy itself to dismiss never be “- says the director of the regional program of the Independent Institute for Social Policy Natalya Zubarevich. Agree with this conclusion and CEO “FinExpertiza” Dmitry Shusternyak. He recalled that the provision of empty staff positions in government agencies may be precisely the same 20%. The same applies to the Ministry of Internal Affairs: reduction starts with jobs, because “the reform of the Ministry of Interior is not aimed at reducing the number of individual police officers.” Although, revising Zubarevich, in some regions – where all the jobs are busy – perhaps a partial dismissal bottom line personnel MIA, the rank and file law enforcement officers. And for them, you may need to have a special state program adaptation and employment ».
It is necessary to remind that in March of this year, Chairman of the Federation Council Valentina Matviyenko again raised the topic of the excess number of officials in Russia. She suggested that the Finance Minister Anton Siluanova “rubanut once” in order to immediately reduce by 50 percent the number of federal officials in the regions, as, in particular, wrote Pravda.ru
As an example, Valentina Matvienko has led the Tula region, where thousands of regional officials who, she said, “is responsible for everything,” there are four thousand federal, excluding power structures.
the Ministry of Economy of the Russian Federation stated that the order to execute the head of government to reduce the state of federal officials on 10 per cent in 2015 will be difficult to comment on the issue.
As noted in an interview with radio station “Moscow speaking” the director of the Center for Technology governance IPEA RANHiGS Vladimir Yuzhakov, along with an understanding of the need to reduce the number of civil servants and public functions in Russia in fact, the opposite processes.
«increases the volume of public authorities, and, consequently, increases the need for officials,” – said V.Yuzhakov.
According to him, this help solve the problem of the introduction of electronic technology and the development of a multifunctional center for public services.
In general, the theme of expansion of the bureaucracy in Russia remains one of the most important – and can not be solved – for the entire post-Soviet history. Ordinance on the Reduction of officials taken regularly. But the effect it gives some reason completely opposite.
January 1, 2006, the number of state and municipal employees was estimated at 1,462,000 people. In 2010, the year of was about 1.7 million, resulting in data Pravda.ru.
This presentation of the Minister of Finance Anton Siluanova at a meeting of the State Council on October 4 last year: “In the last five years of full-time number of state and municipal employees has grown by almost 100 thousand people “.
” As the number of employees in the public sector, based on the 1000 residents of Russia is ahead of most developed countries of the OECD, 1.4 times, and countries with an average level of development – in 2,5 times. We have over bloated budget network, even when compared to the Soviet period, “- said the Minister. Here, however, it should be clarified that he was talking about the employees of education, health and other public sector employees. That is still not about the people who are called by officials.
According to Rosstat, in 2013 the number of employees of state agencies and local governments amounted to 1 million 548 thousand. 62 people, including at the federal level – 48 thousand. 593 people at the regional – 1 million 499 thousand. 469 people.
In this case, the average salary of employees in the federal government agencies was 98.4 thousand. rubles. (An increase of 36.5% in 2012),
officials at the regional level – 36,4 thousand. Rubles. (Up 11%),
Municipal – 33.6 thousand. Rubles. (An increase of 11,3%).
Why interventions to reduce bureaucracy invariably fail? “It’s an old joke that any reduction in the unit leads to its increase. This was since time immemorial,” – said the first deputy chairman of the Duma Committee on Nationalities, member of the Central Staff of the Russian Popular Front Mikhail Starshinov.
According to him, when “nearly every system begins to reform itself, in most cases, the analysis begins, as we work.” “And once it becomes clear that each leader speaks – say, would add three more people, and it was then surely we will work even better”, – said Mikhail Strashyn in an interview with Pravda.Ru at the end of March 2014.
As written in May, the media, along with the planned cuts in this year’s three ministries will be engaged in recruitment.
Educated Ministry of Crimea and the Caucasus will set when the position will be developed on these ministries. Minister for the North Caucasus Lev Kuznetsov while working alone. “He even had his own office until repaired,” – says a government official.
The staffing of the Ministry of the Crimea will be about 230 people, then wrote “Izvestia”. About 70 of them, according to the minister, “eat” the machine, as the ministry will be located in three offices in Moscow, Simferopol and Sevastopol. A government source said that, most likely, the headquarters of the agency will be in Simferopol. Talk about it sooner, said ministry spokesman.
For Minvostokrazvitiya when creating a staffing level was set at 253 people, celebrated in May RBC. In connection with the reorganization of the current is less than the actual figure, said a spokesman for the ministry. Shortfall of 80%. But in terms of the expansion of departments. It looks for a building in central Moscow area 2000-2300 m. m. Officials are ready to take it on lease for 30 months for 175 million rubles.
Source RBC in the government says that the new ministry will recruit staff without a proportional reduction in the number of other ministries. “In other ministries are not there so many experts on the North Caucasus, it takes the new ministry. Therefore the need to expand, “- he said.
In the meantime, according to Rosstat, the officials do not have enough. The staffing of civil servants now a little over 90 percent. With municipal situation is better – more than 96 percent. So there is still room to grow. Despite measures to reduce …
In Russia, officials less than in the United States
Interesting info in this regard led two years ago “Voprosik” and wrote that one of the “myths of the opposition” in Russia – the excess value of our officials. But in developed countries, their number more – at times. In this case, as in the United States, during the crisis the number of bureaucrats is growing, and their income is almost 2 times higher than the national average. American newspaper USAToday found that in 5 years the number of officials with an annual income of more than $ 150,000 per year has increased by 10 times. Those receiving more than 180,000 dollars, was a 2000% increase over the same period. For example, the Ministry of Defence of the United States in 2005 was 9 officers with earnings of $ 170,000 a year, and in June of 2010 – 994 person.
In Russia, the number of federal officials is only 510 thousand people, while at the Finance Minister Kudrin is a desire to reduce them by 20%. It is easy to calculate that the Russian population in the United States gives a factor of 2.2, but the number of federal officials it is less than 4 times. Thus, Russia’s per capita bureaucrats account for approximately 2 times less than in the United States. A much larger number of officials in developed countries than in Russia confirms the global statistics. For example, in 2006 per 1000 population total number of bureaucrats (central and municipal officials, elected positions) in a number of countries was as follows: in France – 71.7 in the United States – 70.4, in Japan – 33.4 in Norway – 24.7, in South Korea – 18.5. In Russia in 2006, there were 1.46 million. Officials at various levels, so by 1000 the Russians accounted for just over 10 officials. In 2009, the number of officials in Russia amounted to 1.64 million. Persons. At the same time Russia over the past 300 years in the number of bureaucrats is always inferior to the developed countries. According to surveys by the Federal Archival Service Director Vladimir Kozlov, in 1826, for every thousand people in England accounted 4.1 official in France – 4.81, and in Russia only 1.3. On the eve of the 1917 Revolution, Russia totaled 576,000 civil servants, while in England at three times less than their population was 779,000, while in the United States and a half times smaller population – 1 million. 275,000. Thus, it turns out that, taking into account the population of the Russian Empire was 5-8 times less than civil servants, officials, than in developed countries. Easy to see that this ratio preserved to our time. It should also be borne in mind that not all of the Russian civil servants are directly officials. For example, in early 2001, the staff for the protection and maintenance of the building is more than 120 thousand people, or 10% of the total payroll of employees of state and municipal authorities. Surely, this ratio remained to this day. Untenable and the myth of a sudden, at times, increase the number of bureaucrats in Russia in comparison with the USSR. According to the CSB (“Work in the USSR”, 1988, p. 30), in the mid 1980s, the total number of people employed in the administration of the USSR ranged from 2 million. To 2.4 million. Persons, the share of the RSFSR accounted for about 40% of the officials in those years – that is, – 0.8-1 million. Persons. However, it reminds American researcher Scott Gehlbach, the number of bureaucrats in all former socialist countries has increased dramatically because state apparatus had to take on many functions performed earlier ruling communist parties and their structural units (the same Komsomol). In the same RSFSR party and Komsomol activists “salaried”, took part in the public administration, there were about 400 thousand people. Ie to the above 0.8-1 million. Soviet officials can add their numbers and get the total number of bureaucrats in the 1.2-1.4 million. man – it’s about 20-35% more than the number of current officials.
