Office defends labor rights of a hardworking single mother caring for two children
In the heart of the Lukoyanovsky District, a flower kiosk salesperson faced a series of labor rights violations from her employer. The employer failed to clarify the terms of pay, specify the workplace, and habitually delayed the salesperson's wages.
These violations led to the salesperson's resignation, but the Lukoyanovsky District Prosecutor's Office intervened to restore her labor rights. The Prosecutor's Office initiated administrative cases under Parts 4 and 6 of Article 5.27 of the Russian Federation Code of Administrative Offenses (RF CoA).
Part 4 of Article 5.27 addresses violations related to labor protection and labor rights, including failure to comply with regulations. Part 6 prescribes administrative fines or other penalties for more serious or repeated violations. The exact monetary fines or penalty details depend on the nature and severity of the violation, but they can range from smaller administrative fines to larger ones, and may also involve temporary suspension of business activities related to labor violations.
The inspection by the Lukoyanovsky District Prosecutor's Office, conducted in February 2025, revealed systematic violations of labor rights by the employer. As a result, the employer was found to have improperly arranged labor relations with the employee.
The Prosecutor's Office's intervention led to a positive outcome for the salesperson. She received her due wages, and the employer was held accountable for their actions. This case serves as a reminder of the importance of upholding labor rights and the role of the Lukoyanovsky District Prosecutor's Office in ensuring compliance with labor legislation.
For exact penalties, official Russian legal texts or databases of the Russian Code of Administrative Offenses should be consulted, as they provide the precise figures and measures. However, it is clear that violators face administrative fines and possible suspension of activities related to labor law violations, with Part 6 prescribing harsher penalties for repeated or severe violations.
The employer's actions, which included failing to provide clear terms of pay and a specified workplace, as well as habitual wage delays, were found to be labor rights violations under Part 4 of Article 5.27 of the RF CoA, a section dedicated to labor protection and rights. Subsequently, the employer was held accountable for their actions and was penalized under Part 6 of the same article, which prescribes harsher fines or penalties for more serious or repeated offences, highlighting the significance of adhering to health-and-workplace wellness regulations and the role of the Lukoyanovsky District Prosecutor's Office in enforcing health-and-wellness related labor legislation.
