Almost every employer asks the question “How much should you pay an employee of a certain profession?” The reason such questions arise is that employee salaries can vary depending on many factors. The main factor on which the amount of remuneration depends is the qualifications of the employee, because workers with specific skills in a certain industry can produce higher quality products and services.

The abbreviation ETKS stands for “Unified Tariff and Qualification Directory of Work and Professions of Workers.” At first glance, you might think that this is some kind of book, but in fact ETKS is a huge collection of essays, which contains more than 50 volumes. Experts are constantly working to improve it.

This directory contains information about all professions existing on the territory of the Russian Federation. This information is presented as tariff and qualification characteristics that were developed in accordance with each category of each specialization of workers. These characteristics include the requirements for workers of each qualification in a particular profession.

ETKS of professions is an official document that is approved by the authorities and in some cases has legislative force. The prerequisites for its creation date back to the Soviet Union: every employee in the country received a salary in accordance with their professional skills and rank.

Advanced training implied an increase in job responsibilities and remuneration and, accordingly, a document confirming the assignment of qualifications had to be submitted to the workplace.

Relevance of the directory

The relevance of this guide is as follows:

  • This system has been and remains very convenient. Since ETKS has been developed for quite a long time, and changes continue to be made to it, it has been refined to the smallest detail. An employer does not have to determine how much to pay its employees. It will be enough for him to look at this directory and find the corresponding requirements for workers in the desired profession.
  • The second point is that the public sector of the economy has been preserved in the Russian Federation. Order and control must necessarily prevail in it due to the fact that we are talking about the state budget, which must be clearly planned, and state budget expenditures must be reported.
  • If we are talking about private entrepreneurship, then an important point in the relationship between a private entrepreneur and the state are taxes, benefits and the Labor Code and other documents that include labor law norms. During tax audits, with the help of ETKS, you can justify any expenses and differences in wages of workers in the same profession. For example, two mechanics will have different salaries because they have different grades.

ETKS is used in the following institutions:

  • in large-scale production organizations;
  • in educational organizations;
  • in government bodies;
  • in companies in order to regulate the activities of employees.

The principle of working with a document

General provisions

General provisions prescribed in the ETKS of professions:

  • ETKS must be applied in all organizations of any areas of economic activity;
  • Intended to carry out tariffication of work, assign qualification levels to workers, draw up and improve programs to improve their skills in all areas of economic activity;
  • Includes characteristics of professions that are grouped by production and type of work, regardless of the form of ownership. All characteristics are developed in accordance with the requirements of the scientific organization of labor and scientific and technological progress, as well as in accordance with the increasing requirements for the level of education and training of workers;
  • The characteristics of professions were developed in relation to the 8-bit tariff scale. The exceptions are the cases specified in the specifications. Work categories are established according to the level of complexity, without taking into account working conditions. If necessary, working conditions are taken into account when increasing salaries;
  • The tariff and qualification characteristics given in the ETKS include a description of the jobs in the profession that are most often encountered. A specific list of responsibilities and the order of their implementation is established in organizations.
  • The tariff and qualification characteristics of high-grade professions do not indicate a list of low-grade jobs, because it is assumed that representatives of such professions will have the skills that are provided for workers of a lower grade;
  • Along with the requirements specified in the tariff and qualification characteristics, the employee must also possess:
    • knowledge of the rational organization of labor, and if he works in a team, then its organization of work;
    • technology for performing work, rules for operating equipment;
    • requirements for the quality of work;

    • workers involved in servicing equipment must have knowledge of plumbing at a level at which they will be able to independently correct problems that arise in the work process.
  • An increase in qualifications or rank is considered by a commission convened at the enterprise. The worker will have to answer questions asked by the commission and perform certain work. For failure to comply with internal labor regulations, a worker can be demoted;
  • Professions are divided into the following categories:
    • professions that require special training and qualifications;
    • performing simple work that involves the use of hand tools is most often provided to unskilled workers.

Description details and examples

For a clear example, you can take the profession of a car mechanic and its characteristics specified in the ETKS. As stated in the reference book, the first and second ranks in this profession are considered apprentice, and the third can be assigned to a worthy specialist.

So, what is indicated in the ETKS:

Characteristics of work This section lists the work that a car mechanic must perform:
  • disassemble trucks and diesel vehicles whose length is more than 9.5 m;
  • repair and assemble cars above 9.5 m;
  • repair and assemble motor vehicles;
  • perform fastening work, replace worn parts;
  • carry out maintenance;
  • identify and correct malfunctions in the operation of vehicle mechanisms and devices;
  • under the guidance of a highly qualified mechanic, repair and install complex components and structures.
Gotta know This paragraph establishes the knowledge requirements for a car mechanic, for example:
  • how structures and units of medium complexity are arranged, and their purpose;
  • how to properly assemble vehicles and repair parts;
  • typical problems that may occur in the system, how to detect and fix them;
  • properties of materials used during repairs, etc.
Examples of work Here is a list of work that a car mechanic can do:
  • remove and install parts on vehicles;
  • disassemble, repair, assemble fans;
  • check and secure universal joints;
  • engage in disassembly, repair and assembly of all vehicle parts;
  • solder contacts, etc.

Positions common to all sectors of the economy

The first section of the ETKS includes professions of workers in all sectors of the economy. It was developed on the basis of the ETKS release, which was in effect earlier. In this section, work tariffs are improved in accordance with the scientific organization of labor and scientific and technological progress.

Typically, in this reference book, each profession is placed in a specific section and appears only once. The first section contains professions that are not specific to a particular industry.

Below is an example of a professions section for all sectors of the economy:

Name of profession Discharge range Characteristics of work Gotta know
Batteryman 1-5 The employee must be able to work with batteries. The complexity of this work depends on the level of the worker. The design and principle of operation of batteries, the basics of physics and electrical engineering, etc.
Car driver 4-6 Management of all motor vehicles, troubleshooting problems that may arise on the road, diagnosing the condition of cars, etc. The principle of operation of all car mechanisms, traffic rules, etc.
Cleaner 1 Keeping the environment in order. Sanitary rules, safety rules. Etc. When performing work in crowded places - 2nd category.

This is an example of ETKS design. To find the right profession, you need to find the desired section on the Internet, and from there take all the information you need.

Where and what issues can be downloaded

In 2020, the ETKS with amendments from 2008 remains relevant. In total, there are 68 published brochures in the Russian Federation, representing all the characteristics of most professions. They are grouped by industry to make searching easier. You can download ETKS either the entire reference book or by section.

It includes the following sections:

  • “Professions for all sectors of the economy”;
  • "Foundry work";
  • “Oil and gas production work”;
  • "Construction work";
  • "Production of equipment";
  • “Restoration work”, etc.

The very first edition of ETKS was published in the Soviet Union, in the 80s. After that, it is constantly refined by specialists. Finding sections of the directory on the Internet is not difficult, so anyone can download it for free and find out about their specialty, what requirements are put forward for it, and what the payment should be.

Accounting connection

ETKS is necessarily used by organizations that have chosen a tariff system as a settlement with their employees. The basis for calculating wages is the tariffs indicated in this directory, as well as the nature of the work and its complexity.

This document states that workers' salaries may be higher than indicated if there are conditions that complicate the labor process. In accordance with labor legislation, if a tariff-free wage system has been chosen, then wages must be recorded in accordance with, otherwise when calculating wages it will be necessary to rely on the rates specified in the ETKS.

Employees of structural units in the course of their activities may make the following mistakes, which are quite common:

  • The employee does not meet the qualifications of the position held. As labor law states, some professions can be performed by people with appropriate education. If the employee performs his duties competently, then a commission can be convened to assign him the highest rank. Most often, an unqualified employee holds a position, and this is a gross violation of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation;
  • The second popular mistake is assigning incentive payments without justification. Here we are talking about the fact that the organization must have certain documents regulating the calculation of bonuses.
  • Another violation is the erroneous calculation of wages during overtime work, and the labor process in difficult conditions. According to ETKS, wages in such situations should increase. The organization must have a strategy for dealing with such situations, which the accountant will rely on when calculating salaries.

Using ETKS professions in practice

ETKS becomes necessary in such situations:

  • drawing up an employment contract;
  • increasing the employee's rank;
  • calculation of remuneration, depending on the assigned qualifications;
  • assessment of special skills and abilities of personnel.

In practice, this reference book becomes necessary immediately when the employment relationship begins. As soon as an employment agreement begins to be drawn up, problems arise in establishing the responsibilities of a potential employee. These responsibilities must be stated in the text of the contract or in the job description.

In accordance with Article 143 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the tariffing of work and the assignment of tariff categories to employees are carried out taking into account the unified tariff and qualification directory of works and professions of workers, the unified qualification directory of positions of managers, specialists and employees.

Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated October 31, 2002 N 787 established that the Unified Tariff and Qualification Directory of Work and Professions of Workers (hereinafter referred to as UTKS) consists of tariff and qualification characteristics containing characteristics of the main types of work by profession of workers, depending on their complexity, and corresponding to them tariff categories, as well as requirements for the professional knowledge and skills of workers.

The development of the ETKS is carried out by the Ministry of Health and Social Development of the Russian Federation together with the federal executive authorities, which are entrusted with the management, regulation and coordination of activities in the relevant sector (sub-sector) of the economy (clause 2 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 31, 2002 N 787).

ETKS 2018 for blue-collar professions is a unified tariff and qualification reference book, it specifies qualification requirements. It is used for pricing, certification, when developing job descriptions and for other purposes, which will be discussed in the article.

Many personnel management tools of the Soviet era are still relevant today, although some of the regulatory documents are morally outdated, the principle of their construction and application can be used quite successfully, especially with regard to production and the national economy. Often in the speech of personnel officers there are phrases “ETKS-2018”, “2018 directory of blue-collar professions”. Various lists, classifiers, lists of qualification requirements - a lot of work has been put into their compilation, this is extensive material and it deserves attention. Let's figure out what is meant by ETKS.

What is ETKS and why is it needed?

ETKS 2018 blue-collar occupations is a special document that is a list of positions with qualification requirements for the workers who occupy them. It is used to determine worker qualifications, assign ranks, and conduct certifications. The abbreviation stands for Unified Tariff and Qualification Directory.

This is a fairly voluminous document, the main parts of which were initially approved by Government resolutions back in Soviet times, in the 80s. Since then it has been revised and edited many times. The current version has 72 issues, which are also divided into sections. In them, positions are combined according to some characteristic: type of activity, sector of the national economy where they are used.

What is it for:


  • for tariffing. That is, in accordance with it, it is possible to determine the complexity of the work performed by the employee and, among other things, to set the wage rate;

  • to conduct certification and determine whether the employee meets the position and qualification requirements. Typically, job descriptions are developed taking this document into account;

  • to determine the correct title for a specific position. This is often difficult for managers who do not have special knowledge;

  • for the development of advanced training course programs.

How to use the directory

The Unified Tariff and Qualification Directory for 2018 occupations of workers is quite simple to use if you understand the principle of constructing the material in it. First you need to find the desired issue and section; their names give a clear idea of ​​the positions included and qualification requirements.


  • general characteristics of the duties performed by the worker, what functions are assigned to him;

  • what an employee holding a similar position should know; examples of work can be given.

And for each profession, categories are indicated, that is, a specialist of the 1st category is more qualified and does more complex work.

Is it mandatory to use?

The question arises: is the tariff and qualification directory of works and professions of workers, 2018, now mandatory? The answer is given in the Labor Code of the Russian Federation: it defines the principles of the tariff system of remuneration. The general principle established by the Labor Code of the Russian Federation is this: the more complex the duties, the higher the pay. It has been established that tariffication and assignment of categories are carried out on the basis of the Unified Tariff Qualification Directory or taking into account professional standards.

ETKS or professional standard

The Unified Tariff and Qualification Directory of Work and Professions of Workers is applied along with professional standards, as specified in Labor Code of the Russian Federation. The employer has the right to decide for himself which of these documents to use. It is very easy to download ETKS on the Internet, and you can select only the necessary sections, while acting with the necessary caution to comply with information security standards.

When drawing up an employment contract and work book, other documents and certificates of employment, it is important to write down the name of the position held in strict accordance with the specified regulatory documents. This is important because if it is included in list 1 or 2 or any benefits are established for such employees, for example, upon retirement, the names must be applied exactly as in the reference book or professional standard, otherwise the Pension Fund may refuse this period of activity is included in special experience, and you will have to prove it in court.
