Fz 181 article 17 new edition. Federal Law "On Social Protection of Disabled People in the Russian Federation". Chapter I. General Provisions

Russia has ratified the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. In this regard, on January 1, 2018, a federal law came into force, establishing the accessibility of various facilities and services for persons with disabilities. At the request of our readers, we publish what changes will occur in the lives of people with disabilities.

Since January 1, 2018, disabled persons have the right to be accompanied

To begin with, we note that Federal Law No. 419-FZ "On Amendments to Certain Legislative Acts of the Russian Federation in Connection with the Ratification of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities" was adopted on December 1, 2014, but entered into force on January 1, 2018. And that is not in full. Some of its articles will become effective from July 1, 2017, and some - from January 1, 2018. He makes changes to almost all regulations in terms of ensuring the opportunity for people with disabilities to use services in all spheres of life. First of all, amendments have been made to Federal Law No. 181-FZ "On social protection of disabled people in the Russian Federation."

Article 15 of this law just speaks about the unhindered access of disabled people to social, engineering and transport infrastructure.

Pharmacies, laundries, hairdressing salons and any other organization should ensure that people with disabilities can use their services.

But here it must be borne in mind that it is often simply impossible to equip a building with ramps or special lifts for disabled people. The legislator has provided that in this case, organizations must agree with the disabled people's societies on other ways of providing services to disabled people. This can be home delivery, cooperation with social workers who will purchase goods for a disabled person, transporting a person to a building, providing services by mail or the Internet, etc. This work, by the way, has already been partially organized in the region. Disabled people can always contact the social taxi service.

Are these services free?

It does not follow from the law that all disabled persons should be provided with free delivery to the place they need. The document only provides for the possibility of using transport services.

Who will accompany the disabled?

Both social workers and service workers. The law does not stipulate that an accompanying person will be “assigned” to each disabled person. This is a service that will be provided within the framework of social security for people with disabilities.

Suppose a disabled person wants to buy medicine at a pharmacy near the house, but there is no ramp. What should he do? According to the law, from January 1, he must be provided with a service

If a disabled person is served by a social worker, then a social worker will take care of the purchase and delivery of medicines. If a disabled person is not served at home by a social worker, he can apply for help from social protection or demand that the pharmacy workers provide him with the necessary assistance.

What actions can people with disabilities expect from social protection in such a situation?

A social worker should be singled out. Considering this situation with a pharmacy, the social worker will purchase the necessary medications and take them home. But in the future, the mechanism that is envisaged should start working, that is, each pharmacy should provide disabled people with the opportunity to receive services from them.

In the future, administrative responsibility will be introduced for organizations that do not comply with the law. That is, if a disabled person informs us that a certain service was not provided to him due to lack of access to the organization, the institution may be fined.

The law says that only newly commissioned buildings will be equipped with ramps. However, the owners of existing facilities are still required to take steps to ensure access. We explain this provision of the law.

Indeed, from this year on, any newly commissioned facilities must meet the requirements for accessibility for people with limited mobility.

Should there be ramps everywhere?

Ramps, elevators, widened openings, etc. As for the already introduced objects, if they cannot be refurbished, it should be agreed with the disabled people's societies that it is possible to achieve only partial or conditional accessibility.

Who is responsible for the fact that ramps are not installed in high-rise buildings?

The management company that serves the house. The problem of installing ramps in apartment buildings is very serious for the following reason: the ramp is part of a capital construction. In most houses, most of the apartments are privatized, so the consent of the residents is required to obtain permission to install a ramp or lifts. Many do not give it: someone does not agree with the installation of ramps, believing that they will interfere with the exit from the entrance.

Changes in the procedure for granting people with disabilities benefits for housing

We have brought the regional legislation in line with the federal one. Taking into account the fact that all benefits for disabled people to pay for the maintenance of housing and utility services are paid at the expense of federal funds, they are directly regulated by Federal Law 181 on the social protection of disabled people.

Law 181 clearly states that people with disabilities living in state and municipal housing stock have a 50% discount on housing payments.

That is, those who live in a privatized, purchased or donated apartment do not have this benefit. And the second point - according to regional legislation, the benefit extended to all family members of a disabled person, according to federal legislation - the payment is made specifically for the disabled person - without taking into account the family members who live with him.

Some residents are outraged by this. I would like them to understand that these benefits are paid from federal funds. There is no talk about saving!

Overhaul benefits

By the way, many people with disabilities are also labor veterans. They have the right to choose which category to provide for this benefit: to receive it as a disabled person or as a labor veteran. In the latter case, they will receive the benefit on the same terms.

The new law also provides for a 50% discount on overhaul payments for people over 75 years old.

This provision was provided for by Federal Law No. 399-FZ of December 29, 2015:

50% discount on overhaul for disabled people of 1-2 groups and families with a disabled child. This payment is valid from January 1st.

The law says about the right of the region to establish a benefit for people over 75 years old - a 50% discount on the payment of overhaul, and for those over 80 years old - a 100% discount. It is the right of every region of our country to establish a benefit or not.

People with disabilities employed in organizations, regardless of their organizational and legal forms and forms of ownership, are provided with the necessary working conditions in accordance with the individual program of rehabilitation or habilitation of a disabled person.

It is not allowed to establish in collective or individual labor contracts working conditions for disabled people (wages, working hours and rest hours, duration of annual and additional paid vacations, etc.) that worsen the situation of disabled people in comparison with other employees.

For disabled people of I and II groups, a reduced working time is established no more than 35 hours per week, while maintaining full remuneration.

Involvement of disabled persons in overtime work, work on weekends and at night is allowed only with their consent and provided that such work is not prohibited for them for health reasons.

People with disabilities are provided with annual leave of at least 30 calendar days.
