The Russian Ministry of Labor has posted a draft regulatory legal act proposing new tools for electronic personnel document management.
The Russian Ministry of Labor proposes to give employers the opportunity to use the Max messenger in electronic document management systems, said Deputy Minister of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation Dmitry Platygin.
The corresponding draft is posted on the website of regulatory legal acts.
“We propose to give employers the opportunity, if they wish, to use an additional tool when maintaining electronic personnel document management - the Max messenger,” said Platygin, as quoted by the department’s press service.
He clarified that after connecting to a personal account on the “Work in Russia” portal or to one’s own or commercial electronic document management system, “Max” can be used to access ECDO systems and resolve personnel issues, for example, to request certificates and coordinate vacation schedules.
At the same time, according to the deputy minister, we are talking only about an additional method of communication. Through the messenger it will be possible to receive notifications about documents received by ECDO and conduct business correspondence. The employer will continue to view and sign documents at State Services using Gosklyuch. Max will receive a link to the document.
