In accordance with clause 6 of Regulation No. 583, the salaries of heads of institutions, their deputies and chief accountants consist of official salaries, compensation and incentive payments. In this case, the official salary of the head of the institution, determined by the employment contract, is set as a multiple of the average salary of employees who belong to the main staff of the institution he heads, and amounts to up to five times the specified average salary.
For your information. The official salaries of deputy heads and chief accountants of institutions are set at 10 - 30% lower than the official salaries of the heads of these institutions.
So, let's consider the components of the salary of the head of a cultural institution, namely the official salary, compensation and incentive payments.
Official salary
As mentioned above, the official salary of a manager is set as a multiple of the average salary of employees who belong to the main staff of the institution he heads, and amounts to up to five times the specified average salary. According to clause 7 of Regulation No. 583, the main personnel of an institution include employees who directly ensure the performance of the main functions for which the institution was created.
Lists of positions and professions of employees of institutions that are classified as core personnel by type of economic activity are established by federal government bodies and institutions - the main managers of federal budget funds in agreement with the Ministry of Health and Social Development. Currently, the Lists of positions of employees classified as core personnel by type of economic activity for calculating average wages and determining the size of official salaries of heads of subordinate federal budgetary institutions are approved by Order of the Ministry of Culture of Russia dated August 15, 2008 N 41 (hereinafter referred to as Order N 41).
As for the procedure for calculating the average salary to determine the size of the official salary of the head of an institution, it is established by the Ministry of Health and Social Development. To date, this Procedure has been approved by Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated 04/08/2008 N 167n (hereinafter referred to as Order N 167n).
Let us consider in more detail the list of positions and the procedure for calculating average wages.
List of positions. So, according to Appendix 1 to Order No. 41 in the List of positions of employees classified as the main personnel of cultural institutions, the type of economic activity of which is called:
- “Other activities in the field of culture” include: scientific secretary, chief researcher, leading researcher, senior researcher, researcher, chief custodian of funds, chief bibliographer, chief librarian, chief conductor, chief choirmaster, chief choreographer, bibliographer, librarian, director, conductor, choirmaster, choreographer, custodian of funds, restoration artist, excursion organizer, methodologist, editor;

- “Activities of museums and protection of historical sites and buildings”, includes: economist, engineer, architect.
In addition, we draw your attention to Letter of the Ministry of Culture of Russia dated September 15, 2008 N 04-64-1336, which notes that in order to determine the size of official salaries of heads of federal budgetary institutions, such as:
- museums, libraries and club-type institutions, Appendix 1 to Order No. 41, section “Other activities in the field of culture” should be applied;
- theaters, performing arts institutions, circuses - Appendix 1 to Order No. 41, section “Activities in the field of art”;
- agencies for the management and use of historical and cultural monuments - Appendix 1 to Order No. 41, section “Activities of museums and protection of historical sites and buildings”;

- institutions of higher and additional professional education and institutions of secondary specialized education - Appendix 3 to Order No. 41, in which the main personnel include: professor, associate professor, academic secretary, chief researcher, leading researcher, senior researcher, researcher, senior teacher, lecturer.
Thus, in accordance with paragraph 6 of Regulation No. 583, when determining the official salary of the heads of the above institutions, the average salary of these categories of employees is taken.
The procedure for calculating the average salary of the main personnel of the institution. According to paragraph 2 of Order No. 167n, when calculating the average salary, salaries (official salaries), wage rates and incentive payments for employees of the main personnel of the institution are taken into account. It does not matter from what sources incentive payments are made (budget funds or funds received from income-generating activities).
Note! When calculating the average salary, compensation payments to the main personnel of the institution are not taken into account (clause 2 of Order No. 167n).
This paragraph also states that the calculation of the average salary of employees of the main personnel of the institution is carried out for the calendar year preceding the year in which the official salary of the head of the institution was established.
Clause 3 of Order No. 167n establishes that the average salary is determined by dividing the sum of salaries (official salaries), wage rates and incentive payments of employees of the main personnel of the institution for the time worked in the previous calendar year by the sum of the average monthly number of such employees for all months of the calendar year , preceding the year of establishing the official salary of the head of the institution.
According to paragraph 4 of Order No. 167n, when determining the average monthly number of employees of the main personnel of an institution, employees who:
- work full time;
- work part-time;
- are external part-time workers.
Please note that each category of employee has its own calculation of the average monthly number. Let's take a closer look at the calculation of the average monthly headcount for each category. So, for the employees of the main staff of the institution:
1) full-time workers, the average monthly number is calculated by summing the number of such workers for each calendar day of the month, that is, from the 1st to the 30th or 31st (for February - to the 28th or 29th number), including weekends and non-working holidays, and the resulting amount is divided by the number of calendar days of the month. In this case, the number of employees on a day off or a non-working holiday is taken to be equal to the number of employees on the working day preceding it. Note that the calculation involves employees who actually work on the basis of a time sheet. If an employee is employed in an institution at more than one rate (for example, he is registered as an internal part-time worker), he is counted as one person (clause 5 of Procedure No. 167n);
2) working part-time, the average monthly number of such workers is determined in proportion to the time worked (clause 6 of Order No. 167n). The same paragraph states that the calculation of the average number of this category of workers is carried out in the following order:
a) firstly, the total number of man-hours worked by these employees is calculated by dividing the total number of man-hours worked in the reporting month by the length of the working day based on the length of the working week, namely:
- 40 hours - by 8 hours (with a five-day working week) or by 6.67 hours (with a six-day working week);
- 39 hours - by 7.8 hours (with a five-day working week) or by 6.5 hours (with a six-day working week);
- 36 hours - by 7.2 hours (with a five-day working week) or by 6 hours (with a six-day working week);
- 33 hours - by 6.6 hours (with a five-day working week) or by 5.5 hours (with a six-day working week);
- 30 hours - for 6 hours (with a five-day working week) or for 5 hours (with a six-day working week);
- 24 hours - by 4.8 hours (with a five-day working week) or by 4 hours (with a six-day working week);
b) secondly, the average number of part-time workers for the reporting month is determined in terms of full employment by dividing the man-days worked by the number of working days in the month according to the calendar in the reporting month;
3) who are external part-time workers, the average monthly number is calculated similarly to the procedure for determining the average monthly number of employees working part-time (clause 7 of Procedure No. 167n).
We also draw your attention to Order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated April 2, 2008 N 158n, which approved Clarifications on certain issues of establishing the official salary of the head of a federal budgetary institution. These clarifications state that when creating new federal budgetary institutions and in other cases when it is impossible to calculate the average salary of employees of the main personnel of a federal budgetary institution to determine the official salary of the head of a federal budgetary institution for the calendar year preceding the year in which the official salary of the head is established, the amount The official salary of the head of a federal budgetary institution is determined by the federal executive body, which is the main manager of federal budget funds, which is in charge of the federal budgetary institution.

Material verified by Aktion Culture experts
The Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation on its website published data on the average monthly salaries of heads of subordinate institutions for 2016
The average age of directors of Moscow's leading theaters has already exceeded 80! Why are masters of culture in no hurry to retire, even if their strength is running out?
The answer to this question may lie in the report of the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation. On its website it published data on the average monthly salaries of heads of subordinate institutions for 2016.
FOR REFERENCE: Yuri Solomin (Maly Theatre) and Oleg Tabakov (Chekhov Moscow Art Theater) are 81 each. Alexander Shirvindt (Satire Theater) is 82, Tatyana Doronina (Gorky Moscow Art Theater), Galina Volchek (Sovremennik) and Mark Zakharov (Lenkom) - 83 years old. Some of them already have difficulty moving independently, but are ready to come to work even in a wheelchair.
The highest paid was the artistic director and director of the Mariinsky Theater Valery Gergiev. On average, every month of the past year he received 12 million 857 thousand 163 rubles. His colleague from the St. Petersburg Academic Philharmonic, according to the Ministry of Culture, earned 976.2 thousand rubles per month. And to the General Director of the Moscow Kremlin Museum-Reserve Elena Gagarina(daughter of the first cosmonaut) was paid a salary of 964.2 thousand rubles.
My dear old people: SOLOMIN, SHIRVINDT, ZAKHAROV
A little less - 936 thousand each - fell on the card Oleg Tabakov. But, in addition to the leadership of the Moscow Art Theater, Oleg Pavlovich, as you know, also heads the Tabakerka Theater and the Theater College. These institutions are financed from the Moscow budget, but the capital department has not yet published data on the salaries of its cultural workers. Therefore, at the moment it is not known, for example, about salaries Mark Zakharova, Alexander Shirvindt, Galina Volchek. Their theaters are also financed not from the federal, but from the Moscow budget.
Galina VOLCHEK. Photo: ITAR-TASS Among the leaders of other famous “centers of culture” stands out Yuri Solomin. His average salary in 2016 was 746.7 thousand. Colleague of Yuri Methodievich from the Moscow Art Theater Tatiana Doronina declared the amount almost half as much - 389.6 thousand.
Head of the Great Moscow Circus Edgar Zapashny every month of the past year I received 499.7 thousand. One of the lowest paid Konstantin Raikin from Satyricon - 247.5 thousand rubles.
Famous musician Yuri Lozu- who, among other things, has an economic education - was not surprised by the size of the salaries of artistic directors.
- Our budget can’t withstand such loads,” Loza sneers. - Where else, if not from the budget, should these cultural figures get their salaries? After all, they essentially produce nothing. It's a shame that among our oligarchs there are no hard workers. They have not created anything themselves; they live on the oil needle. They took advantage of the privatization of people's wealth at one time, but now they don't even care. Our artistic directors have adjusted in exactly the same way: they know where to get the money. Either from the same oligarchs, or from the state, which for them, in essence, is an oligarch. Therefore, culture does nothing for poor, ordinary people, only for the rich! That’s why films are not made for the people, and plays are not staged for the people.
In the theater, the director receives a million rubles, and the stage installer receives thirty to forty times less,” continues Loza. - And the safety of the actors depends on the latter, by the way. Is this fair? We need to reduce this insane difference in earnings. I also earn more than my musicians, but not by the same amount! These are my colleagues, and they work as much as I do, stand behind me on stage, play. So my conscience does not allow me to rip them off.

If we turn to the museum industry, the example of director-businessman Vadim Zadorozhny, for obvious reasons, seems to be an exception: in general, heads of museum institutions declare income that slightly exceeds their annual salary (or does not exceed it at all). The salaries of museum managers also do not show such a spread as in the case of musical theaters. The only exceptions that look exceptional against the general museum background are the salaries of the director of the Kremlin museums Elena Gagarina (964 thousand rubles) and the director of the State Hermitage Mikhail Piotrovsky (839 thousand rubles). Otherwise, the salary range for museum directors throughout the country is 100–500 thousand rubles, and in each specific case the salary does not always directly correspond to the importance, central location or prestige of a given museum. Thus, the director of the Historical Museum Alexey Levykin in 2016 received an average of 494 thousand rubles. per month, director of the Tretyakov Gallery Zelfira Tregulova - 436 thousand rubles, but director of the Pushkin Museum named after. Pushkina Marina Loshak - 198 thousand rubles. At the same time, the average monthly salary of the director of the Kizhi Museum-Reserve was 330 thousand rubles, and the director of the Russian Museum Vladimir Gusev was 272 thousand rubles.
