The article analyzes the grounds for temporary placement of children, the average period of temporary stay, the list of services provided by organizations to legal representatives and children, the number of children returned to parents (other legal representatives), the number of children left in organizations at the end of their stay, and monitoring the reasons for abandonment, provides information on the amount of funds (by budget levels) allocated for the maintenance of this category of children. The data are presented for organizations for orphans located in the field of education, social protection and healthcare. The consequences of temporary institutionalization for the psychological development of children and the role of parents in the return of the child home are evaluated. 85 subjects of the Russian Federation took part in the Monitoring, who filled out an electronic form of executive authorities exercising powers of guardianship in relation to minors. Monitoring has shown that the majority of families who have placed a child in an organization for orphans have a difficult financial situation, are often in a socially dangerous situation, due to intra-family conflict, illness, disability of legal representatives, undergoing treatment of parents for alcohol or drug addiction; finding a legal representative under investigation.

The article presents an analysis of the results of monitoring to determine the need to increase the level of competence of specialists of guardianship and guardianship (OOP) (2020), provided by the Department of State Policy in the field of Protection of Children’s Rights of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation. In the context of the constant expansion of the powers of PLO specialists, the importance of special professional and methodological training of specialists of guardianship and guardianship authorities in relation to minors in accordance with the requirements of the professional standard and interdisciplinary competencies is evident. 406 specialists of guardianship and guardianship authorities of 85 subjects of the Russian Federation took part in the study. The analysis of 406 questionnaires of PLO specialists with different work experience in the guardianship and guardianship authorities was carried out. The average age of the PLO specialists who took part in the survey is 40 years. The gender composition of respondents is mainly represented by female specialists (92.2% of women with less than 1 year of work experience and 98.3% with more than 5 years of work experience). Representatives of executive authorities in the field of guardianship and guardianship note the need to update the existing professional standard of a specialist of guardianship and guardianship authorities in accordance with changes in state policy in the field of protection of the rights of minors. The most popular forms of receiving methodological assistance are: participation in training seminars, conferences, round tables, webinars; online consultations with experts. PLO specialists prefer to receive methodological support through telephone consultations, through various Internet resources; in the form of methodological recommendations; supervisors, business games, trainings, advanced training courses. The problem area remains the modern content of training programs, a multidisciplinary approach, and the constant expansion of the competencies necessary for the work of specialists. It is shown that for specialists with different work experience, their own principle of building advanced training programs with different volume and content of training for these categories of specialists should be implemented with the obligatory reliance on the case study.

The article is devoted to the study of difficulties in the activities of specialists of support services for substitute families. Monitoring conducted by the Federal Resource Center for Guardianship and Guardianship of the Federal State Budgetary Institution “Center for the Protection of the Rights and Interests of Children” revealed problems that are common to all subjects of the Russian Federation. For more precise identification of problem areas in the work of specialists, an additional study was conducted. The target group included 90 specialists of support services (psychologists, social educators) aged from 23 to 56 years, with work experience from 1 to 5 years. The purpose of the study was to describe the difficulties, their typology and the possibility of prevention in the work. A questionnaire based on the method of unfinished sentences was used, adapted for the study and ranking of difficulties.

One of the positive aspects of the achievements in the 21st century is the information variety availability. Any person who has access to the Internet by the technical devices enters the information space. Using the Internet (information technology) any person can not only obtain the electronic library thus expanding one’s horizons with encyclopedic knowledge, but also carry out educational activities and share any information. However, a person with a fragile psyche gets access to information that does not correspond to the age category. An issue of children’s access to information that has age restrictions is discussed, and decisions are made that regulate by law the relationship of future erudites with information posted in the public domain. In society there is ambiguity in the formulation and views on information that has age restrictions. Such an ambiguity leads to the fact that the younger generation is not protected from the information an access to which is restricted to them. Therefore, by concentrating regulatory functions in one executive body, it is possible to achieve the proper level of protection against information that has age restrictions. Those functions could be assigned to such an executive body as the Russian Federation Ministry of Education.

The problem of assessing the readiness of graduates of various forms of guardianship for independent life is associated with the lack of regulatory regulation of activities for the support of orphans and persons from among them in federal legislation and in the legislation of a number of regions of the Russian Federation. There is neither a unified approach to assessing readiness for independent living, nor a unified terminology base, which significantly complicates the development and improvement of assessment methods. The article presents the results of monitoring programs for the preparation of pupils of organizations for orphans for independent life, conducting an assessment of readiness in the subjects of the Russian Federation and describes the current state of the problem of readiness of graduates of organizations for orphans and graduates of substitute families in different regions, provided by the Department of State Policy in the field of Protection of Children’s Rights of the Ministry of Education of the Russian Federation. Specialists from 78 regions participated in the study, for which a special questionnaire was developed. The analysis of the obtained data showed that there are several approaches used in the practice of assessing the readiness of graduates by regions: a psychodiagnostic approach, a behavioral and competence approach. In the analysis, we relied on the understanding of the assessment of readiness for independent life through the correlation of the formed life competencies with the requirements that are imposed on graduates and with those indicators that determine the ability to apply the relevant competencies in the right situations. If educational programs, readiness criteria have been developed in organizations for orphans and work is being carried out, then in relation to teenagers who are in substitute families, it is assumed that they will naturally prepare for life in the post-international period in the family or they will undergo career guidance at school. According to the results of monitoring, such a statement of the question is questionable. The prospects of the study are related to the development of a system for assessing the readiness of graduates for independent living, the standard for preparing graduates of organizations for orphans and substitute families to live independently.

The presented study analyzes the proposal of the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation D. A. Medvedev to switch to a four-day working week. In the context of the topic, the experience of dealing with this issue is examined, including international practices. A similar proposal was discussed by I.V. Stalin as far back as Soviet times, although in the context of switching to five- or six-hour working days, but only in 2019 did this issue become the subject of debate. In light of the pension reform, which has led to an increase in the retirement age in Russia, a number of experts believe that such proposals may entail potential changes that could have a negative effect on the situation of workers. This study examines the mechanisms of public administration in coordination with enterprises relating to changes in the working hours.Aim. The authors aim to analyze potential directions for the improvement of public administration in the field of labor legislation, which has a significant impact on the development of the economy, business, and the situation of workers.Tasks. This study determines the historical background of Russia’s switch to a four-day working week; examines the legal mechanisms and specific features of labor legislation in Russia in the context of the planned switch to a four-day working week; explores international practices in the field of regulation of working hours; analyzes the benefits and drawbacks of switching to a four-day working week in Russia; develops proposals associated with Russia’s switch to a four-day working week.Methods. The methodological basis for the consideration of the problems includes general scientific methods, systems, structural, functional, and institutional analysis.Results. The ongoing processes in the field of improvement of labor legislation and its impact on the economy, business, and the situation of workers are comprehensively analyzed. The historical background of Russia’s switch to a four-day working week is determined; fundamentals of Russian labor legislation are examined; benefits and drawbacks of the potential innovations in the field of regulation of working hours are identified with allowance for international practices. The authors formulate proposals, the implementation of which will bring Russia closer to the switch to a four-day working week.Conclusions. The proposals of the Prime Minister of the Russian Federation to switch to a four-day working week has raised a lot of questions. For instance, it is unclear whether the current wages will be maintained. It is also questionable whether it is a step towards artificially reducing unemployment, in which fields this idea is likely to manifest itself first, and so on. These questions need to be thoroughly discussed by the representatives of the Government of the Russian Federation, Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation, trade unions, and the scientific community. It is necessary to conduct a sociological survey to determine and prevent concerns among citizens about the upcoming changes. That said, the authors believe that the idea itself is conceptually correct, but it still valid to doubt whether it can be successfully implemented at the time of capitalism, when entrepreneurs focus on profit and are not interested in reducing the working time of their employees. According to the authors, the plans of I.V. Stalin to reduce working time could faster come into fruition with the socialist economic model, which facilitated innovations in the machine tool industry that would boost GDP growth and significantly reduce production costs. Assessing the prospects of development of this idea at the present stage is difficult.
