Current as of July 2, 2021
The size of the minimum wage in 2022 for employers means the need to control payments to employees. If they have worked the entire time limit and fulfilled all obligations in full, then they must receive a salary not lower than a certain level. And this level has several meanings.
The minimum wage is directly determined at the federal level. And first of all, we need to focus on these indicators. The 2022 federal minimum wage is a general indicator. However, there are values by region and even by industry. All this must be taken into account as a whole.
In particular, the minimum wage in Russia from January 1, 2022 will be 12 thousand 792 rubles. Moreover, in the regions a separate minimum wage is established. It is fixed at the level of constituent entities of the Russian Federation by special agreements. According to Article 133 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the minimum wage is traditionally higher than the federal one.
Individual industries have their own payment standards. They are indicated in the corresponding agreement. The texts of the latter are published on the website of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation and in a number of official publications. It is advisable to keep track of all this.
If the employee’s payment is less than the regional minimum wage in 2021, then the employer is obliged to establish an additional payment. You can do this in 2 ways:
- Enlarge report.
This means that with any change in the minimum wage, a corresponding order will need to be issued, the texts of employment contracts will need to be changed, and the staffing table will need to be redone. It is also necessary to understand the remaining documents in which the salary is indicated.
- Indicate the additional payment in a separate act.
The fact is that the entire salary is compared with the minimum wage, not the bare salary. That is, other payments and allowances are taken into account. This option is simpler because it eliminates the need to redo a huge number of documents.
The second option is preferable, because it is enough to fix the compensatory additional payment only once. Accrual will occur automatically. That is, the employer will only need to look at the table of minimum wages by region of Russia, find the required indicator, and calculate the amount.
Important: it is worth considering that additional payment to the regional minimum wage is not required if the employee did not work all the days as scheduled for various reasons. However, the shortcoming in this case must have good reasons. And they need to be identified.
The increase in the minimum wage in 2022 affected all employers in one way or another. If they charge their employees less than the required amount, they may face fines and other troubles. That’s why it’s so important to follow the Government’s resolution on the minimum wage.
But if problems arise with the calculations, you can always turn to professionals on a specific issue. You can also completely delegate all issues related to accounting to specialists.
Rules for establishing minimum wages in the regions
In addition to the minimum wage for labor determined at the all-Russian level, it is also possible to adopt a regional value for this value (Article 133.1 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation).
By region, the minimum wage can be introduced for all categories of workers, with the exception of those who work in organizations financed from the Federation budget. For the latter, the minimum wage is always equal to its federal value. A regional minimum will only apply within the region that established it. For its value, differentiation is acceptable depending on sources of funding, scale, specific area and types of activities of employers. But at the same time, it cannot be less than the value established for the federal minimum.
There are nuances of salary indexation taking into account the regional minimum wage. Read more in the expert material available in the ConsultantPlus system. Get a free trial.
For regions, the minimum wage is decided by a 3-party commission consisting of representatives of the government of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation, workers (trade unions) and employers. This decision becomes binding for all employers in the region if they do not submit a written refusal to implement this decision to the leadership of the constituent entity of the Russian Federation within 30 days from the date of its publication. For employers who refuse to apply the minimum wage introduced in the region, the federal value of this indicator will apply.
The Labor Code of the Russian Federation (Articles 133 and 133.1), when determining the minimum wage for labor, obliges to focus on the level of the subsistence minimum, and from 01.01.2021, the amount of the median wage. For the minimum wage introduced at the all-Russian level, this requirement must be met from 05/01/2018. But regions, as a rule, followed this approach in the past.
It is important to keep in mind that the minimum wage, including the regional one, should not include the regional coefficient and salary bonuses accrued in connection with work in areas with special climatic conditions, including in the Far North and equivalent areas localities They need to be accrued additionally (Resolution of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation dated December 7, 2017 No. 38-P).

Minimum salary in the Nizhny Novgorod region
The size of the minimum wage in Nizhny Novgorod and the region from January 1, 2022 coincides with the federal one. According to the Federal Law of the Russian Federation dated December 6, 2021 N 406-FZ “On amending Article 1 of the Federal Law “On the Minimum Wage”, from January 1, 2022, the minimum wage in the country is 13,890 rubles monthly.
The minimum wage in the Nizhny Novgorod region in 2022 also did not differ from the indicator established for the entire country in accordance with the Federal Law of the Russian Federation dated December 29, 2020 N 473-FZ, and amounted to 12,792 rubles.
The Nizhny Novgorod region is not among the regions in which there are any territorial allowances and regional coefficients that increase the minimum wage. There are also no local regulations on increasing the minimum wage in the region.
Common Questions
How has the regional minimum wage changed since 2022?
From 2022, the minimum wage depends on the median salary in Russia as a whole. The value of the median salary is calculated by statistics. The median salary when calculating the minimum wage for 2022 is taken for 2022 - as the previous year in which the normative act on approval of the minimum wage in 2022 was adopted (Section 4 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of April 15, 2014 No. 298). The median salary in 2022 was 32,422 rubles. The minimum wage is equal to 42% of the median salary or 13,617 rubles. (32,422 x 42%). Consequently, employee wages will increase throughout Russia.
How does the new minimum wage affect wages?
The minimum wage affects the amount of wages. That is, if an employee worked the required amount of time and received a salary below the minimum wage, then this is a reason to be called to the tax commission. There are two ways to increase your salary to the minimum wage:
- establish a surcharge;
- increase salary.
In the first case, you need to issue an order and specify the rules for additional payment up to the minimum wage in the wage regulations. In the second, change the staffing table and make additional agreements with employees.
In addition to wages, the minimum wage affects the amount of benefits. Average earnings for calculating sick leave must not be lower than the minimum wage. That is, at least 456.66 rubles. (RUB 13,890 x 24 months: 730 days). Target the new minimum if an employee becomes ill in 2022.
Read more about how to calculate sick leave according to the minimum wage here.
What minimum wage should be taken into account if an employee works in a branch?
According to the letter of Rostrud dated 09/08/2011 No. 2648-6-1, the wages of employees of organizations, including branches and representative offices, cannot be lower than the minimum wage established in the constituent entity of the Russian Federation in the territory of which the employee carries out his labor activity.
That is, if the parent organization is located in Moscow, and an employee works in a branch, for example, in the Krasnodar Territory, then he must receive a salary no lower than the minimum wage approved in the Krasnodar Territory.

Living wage in the Nizhny Novgorod region
The living wage in the Nizhny Novgorod region for 2022 is established by Resolution of the Regional Government dated September 15, 2021 No. 819.
This by-law establishes the following living wage indicators for 2022:
- for the working population – 11,233 rubles;
- for the working population – 12,244 rubles;
- for a pensioner – 9,660 rubles;
- per child – 11,312 rubles.
The cost of living of a pensioner in the Nizhny Novgorod region from January 1, 2022, in order to determine the amount of pension social benefits, was not established here, since the regional cost of living for persons receiving a pension did not exceed the federal value.
The cost of living in Moscow in 2022 per person - from January 1, the subsistence minimum will increase
Average salary in the Sverdlovsk region in 2022 according to Rosstat
According to the latest data, Rosstat has published information for the first 10 months of 2022. Information about the beginning of 2022 will appear approximately after March. Average salaries in the Sverdlovsk region in 2022 were by month, in rubles:
- in January - 33,809;
- in February - 34,438;
- in March - 35,337;
- in April - 35,911;
- in May - 38,730;
- in June - 40,338;
- in July - 37,805;
- in August - 36,471;
- in September - 36,787;
- in October - 36,222.
This is information for all organizations. The average monthly salaries for employees of organizations by type of activity were calculated as of November 2022. The difference in salaries between the beginning of the year (36,729 rubles) and the 11th month (37,604 rubles) showed a slight increase of 875 rubles.
Statistics prove that:
- The cheapest paid labor is in hotels and catering establishments, where the average salary was 19,982 rubles. The level of salaries decreased: at the beginning of the year the average value was 20,141 rubles.
- It is profitable to work in the financial and insurance sectors, where average salaries reached 60,930 rubles by November.
- The most profitable earnings turned out to be scientific research and development - the payment for them is 62,976 rubles.
Therefore, it can be argued that changes in the minimum wage or subsistence level from January 1, 2022 in the Sverdlovsk region will not significantly affect salaries in private business.

When an employer has the right to pay wages less than the minimum wage
The employer has the right to pay the employee less than the minimum wage in the following cases (Article 133 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation):
- the employee did not work a full month;
- committed absenteeism, during which he was deprived of his salary;
- did not fulfill the established volume of production standards;
- released defective products;
- the employee was on sick leave;
- registered for part-time work;
- took a vacation at his own expense;
- downtime at work through no fault of the employer.
In these cases, the employer has the right to pay the employee a salary less than the established minimum wage, that is, in proportion to the time actually worked. It is also worth considering that if an employee is registered under a GPC agreement, the employer is not obliged to set the salary in accordance with the minimum wage.
