On some problems of regulating the remuneration and labor incentives of university teachers in Russia at the federal level

The article examines the features of the legal regulation of remuneration and labor incentives for university teachers at the federal level. The subject of the research, the results of which are presented in this article, are the features of the legal regulation of remuneration and incentives for the work of university teachers at the federal level. The purpose of the study is to consider possible ways to increase wages and incentive payments for university teachers at the federal level. As research methods, the author included methods such as legal analysis of the existing legal regulation of the activities of a university teacher, as well as the method of situational modeling of the legal regulation of the activities of a university teacher. During the study, it was found that, unfortunately, the current Russian legislation at the federal level does not contain effective incentives for university teachers: the salary of a university teacher practically does not depend on the results of his scientific and educational achievements, bonuses for an academic degree and academic title have been removed, there is no budget doctoral studies, and extended paid leave for teachers is often not fully realized due to the need for additional income for teachers. Ways have been proposed to improve the legal regulation of the activities of university teachers, aimed at stimulating the activities of university teachers at the federal level, including the return to Russian legislation of additional payments for an academic degree and academic title in the amount of at least 40% of their salary, the need for regular payment of bonuses for scientific work , the return of budget-funded doctoral studies, and an increase in the salaries of university teachers based on a single salary scale.
