Putin signs a federal law giving cops yet another reason to conduct unscheduled inspections

Source: Meduza

Vladimir Putin has signed a federal law granting law enforcement another justification for unscheduled inspections of employers, allowing officials to carry out spot checks based on reports by individuals and legal entities about labor code violations. Reports by the news media will also be grounds for unscheduled inspections.

You wouldn’t know it from today’s legislation, but the Putin administration has actually called for reforms that would reduce the number of unscheduled inspections in Russia, as businesses complain that unscheduled inspections have become more frequent as the number of scheduled inspections falls.
