The relevance of foreign employees is growing daily. The reasons for this are completely different. They depend on the needs of a particular company, form of ownership and goals. One needs to have qualified specialists in a narrow field, with a good foreign diploma and knowledge of the language. Others want to minimize labor costs. The third is to reduce the number of tax deductions due to the employment of migrants.
To avoid huge amounts of fines for violations of migration and labor laws, it is worth conducting a legal review of the registration of employees and personnel documentation of the company.
The concept of “migration audit”
The process includes a systematic analysis of the interaction between the company and the foreign employee. A thorough legal review of documentation and compliance with the laws regarding the employment of a citizen of another country is carried out. Legalization of activities allows you to avoid millions of fines.
Statistics say that in 98% of cases, during monitoring, errors are found in documents that can cost the company penalties from the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the labor inspectorate and the migration service.
Professional migration audit - makes it possible to timely identify violations in the documentation and incorrect labor interactions, correct shortcomings in order to avoid punishment and expulsion of the employee from the Russian Federation.
What threatens a legal entity with violation of migration legislation?
On the part of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, all documents drawn up no later than 1 year on the date of the examination will be considered. If the inspector reveals violations, errors or incorrect filling of the documentation, as well as its absence and the simultaneous identification of the fact of the work of a foreign citizen, the legal entity faces a fine of up to 1 million rubles.
From this moment, the migration service will join the work, which with a 90% probability will expel a foreign citizen without the right to enter the country for a certain amount of time. The FMS will also initiate legal proceedings on the issue of illegal labor activity of migrants at the enterprise.
Lead to punishment:
- lack of documents confirming the legality of the foreigner's presence in the country;
- violations in the employment contract;
- performance of official duties in an enterprise without an employment contract;
- non-compliance with safety regulations;
- employment without a patent and other documents confirming the right to work;
- expiration of breaks for work, stay in the country;
- lack of personal protective equipment, as well as non-compliance by the employer with other safety measures, as well as provisions prescribed in the contract.
An audit will reveal not only possible errors and violations, but also expired documents of a foreign employee. After all, it is this moment that most often causes huge damage to the company.
