Minimum wage in the Moscow region in 2022

Regional minimum wage

In addition to the federal minimum wage, which is valid throughout Russia, some regions determine their own minimum wage or regional minimum wage. If the authorities of your region have established their own minimum wage, be guided by it when issuing wages. It doesn't affect anything anymore.

If the regional minimum wage exceeds the minimum wage, then it should be used.

We found the minimum wage for some regions. If yours is not on the list, write in the comments, we will try to help.

To make sure that the minimum wage is up to date, follow the link in the table.

Minimum wage in the Moscow region from January 1, 2022

The agreement concluded between the Government of the Moscow Region, representatives of the trade union association and employers established the minimum wage in the Moscow region from January 1, 2022 - 14,200 rubles.
This figure is higher than the federal average (12,130 rubles), but less than the minimum wage in Moscow - 20,195 rubles. The document applies to employers of any legal form and type of ownership, except for organizations that receive funding from the federal budget.

The minimum wage in the Moscow region in 2022 is provided by:

• the budget of the Moscow region for those enterprises that receive funding from it, as well as income received from commercial activities;
• funds from local budgets for organizations and enterprises that are financed by local budgets, as well as profits from business and other types of activities;
• at the expense of private business's own funds.

Employers have the right to switch to the federal minimum wage of 12,130 rubles. To do this, you must not miss the 30-day period from the date of official publication of the new minimum wage in order to send a written refusal to apply the minimum wage indicator in the Moscow region for 2022.

A letter refusing the regional “minimum wage” in favor of the federal one is sent to Moscow to the Ministry of Social Development of the Moscow Region. Address of the ministry: Moscow, Kulakova street, 20, building 1.

Minimum wage and salary

Under an employment contract, pay an employee a salary not lower than the minimum wage. The salary is not the money that he receives in his hands, but the amount before deduction of personal income tax.

Let's say you run a business in Moscow. They hired an employee and established a salary of 21,000 rubles in the employment contract. Without personal income tax, the employee will receive 18,270 rubles. This is legal because the amount before tax is not lower than the regional minimum wage.

Salary consists of salary, bonuses, allowances and compensation. Each of these parts individually may be below the minimum wage if the total amount corresponds to it.

When can you pay less? If the employee works part-time.

For example, the minimum wage for work at 0.5 rates is half the minimum wage. Let's say you work in Moscow and have hired a part-time waiter. From Monday to Friday he works 4 hours a day. The minimum salary you must pay him is 10,294.5 rubles.

How to calculate the regional coefficient? Regional coefficient is a salary supplement for those who work in the Far North and equivalent areas. They are listed in the resolution.

The law does not really say whether the regional coefficient should be included in the minimum wage salary or added on top. But the Constitutional Court decided: it is necessary to set wages no lower than the minimum wage and only add regional coefficients and a percentage bonus on top.

Minimum wage and insurance premiums for individual entrepreneurs in 2022

In 2022, individual entrepreneurs pay 43,211 rubles in fixed insurance premiums + 1% of income over 300 thousand rubles - this amount does not depend on the minimum wage.

From 2022, insurance premiums do not depend on the minimum wage. In 2022 and earlier, the fixed part was calculated using the formula:

Contributions for the year = minimum wage x 12 x 31.1%

For the calculation, we used the federal minimum wage, which was in effect at the beginning of the year. On January 1, 2022, the minimum wage was 7,500 rubles, so for 2022, individual entrepreneurs paid 27,990 rubles + 1% of income over 300 thousand.

Current values ​​of the cost of living for the Moscow region

According to the rules in force at the end of 2022, the cost of living in the Moscow region in 2022 per person from January 1 will be equal to the indicator for the 3rd quarter of 2022. This is the last PM currently approved by the region. The rules may change; legislators decided that the main indicator should be the level of income of the population instead of the consumer basket. It is quite possible that for the 1st quarter of 2022 the PM will no longer be calculated, since according to the new law the indicator is introduced annually and not quarterly.

For now, the following values ​​are in effect, adopted for the 3rd quarter of 2020 on the basis of Regional Government Decree No. 972/41 dated December 16, 2020.

In general, the per capita living wage, according to the Government decree, for the 3rd quarter is 13,580 rubles.
