An Employment Contract with a Teacher: Actual Problems of Concluding Such Contracts and Content of Supporting Documents

Abstract

The pedagogical activity of a teacher at an educational organization is of a special social significance. The principles of continuity and professionalism of organization and conduct of the educational process have a significant impact on relations regulating conclusion, renewal and the content of an employment contract with a teacher. A turning point in law enforcement practice, as well as in the legislator’s approach to regulating the relations under consideration, took place when Resolution of the Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation No. 32‑P of 15.07.2022 was passed. A modern employment contract with a teacher is not limited to one document. The educational organization (an employer) should pay attention to the documents accompanying the employment contract with the teaching staff. Based on the analysis of current provisions of labor legislation and legislation protecting personal data, the doctrine, judicial and business practice, the author makes conclusions and recommendations regarding the solution of problems related to the conclusion, renewal and content of an employment contract with the teacher, as well as regarding the accompanying documents. The paper substantiates the composition and content of such documents, makes proposals regarding lawful processing of personal data of the teaching staff and reporting to Roskomnadzor.
