Do you think you are Russian? Born in the USSR and think that you are Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian? No. This is not true.

You are actually Russian, Ukrainian or Belarusian. But you think you are a Jew.

Game? Wrong word. The correct word is "imprinting".

A newborn associates himself with those facial features that he observes immediately after birth. This natural mechanism is characteristic of most living beings with vision.

Newborns in the USSR for the first few days saw their mother for a minimum of feeding time, and most of the time they saw the faces of the maternity hospital staff. By a strange coincidence, they were (and still are) mostly Jewish. Reception is wild in its essence and effectiveness.

All your childhood you wondered why you live surrounded by non-native people. Rare Jews on your path could do anything with you, because you were drawn to them, while others were repelled. Yes, even now they can.

You cannot fix this - imprinting is one-time and for life. It is difficult to understand, the instinct took shape when you were still very far from being able to formulate. From that moment, no words or details have been preserved. Only facial features remained in the depths of memory. Those traits that you consider your family.

System and Observer

Let us define a system as an object whose existence is not in doubt.

An observer of a system is an object that is not a part of the system it observes, that is, it determines its existence, including through factors independent of the system.

From the point of view of the system, the observer is a source of chaos - both control actions and the consequences of observational measurements that do not have a causal relationship with the system.

An internal observer is a potentially achievable object for the system in relation to which the inversion of the observation and control channels is possible.

An external observer is even an object potentially unattainable for the system, located beyond the event horizon of the system (spatial and temporal).

Hypothesis #1. All-seeing eye

Let's assume that our universe is a system and it has an external observer. Then observational measurements can take place, for example, with the help of "gravitational radiation" penetrating the universe from all sides from the outside. The capture cross section of "gravitational radiation" is proportional to the mass of the object, and the projection of the "shadow" from this capture onto another object is perceived as an attractive force. It will be proportional to the product of the masses of objects and inversely proportional to the distance between them, which determines the density of the "shadow".

The capture of "gravitational radiation" by an object increases its randomness and is perceived by us as a passage of time. An object that is opaque to "gravitational radiation", the capture cross section of which is larger than the geometric size, looks like a black hole inside the universe.

Hypothesis #2. Internal Observer

It is possible that our universe is watching itself. For example, using pairs of quantum entangled particles spaced apart in space as standards. Then the space between them is saturated with the probability of the existence of the process that generated these particles, which reaches its maximum density at the intersection of the trajectories of these particles. The existence of these particles also means the absence of a sufficiently large capture cross section on the trajectories of objects capable of absorbing these particles. The remaining assumptions remain the same as for the first hypothesis, except:

Time flow

External observation of an object approaching the event horizon of a black hole, if the “outside observer” is the determining factor of time in the universe, will slow down exactly twice - the shadow from the black hole will block exactly half of the possible trajectories of “gravitational radiation”. If the determining factor is the "internal observer", then the shadow will block the entire trajectory of interaction and the flow of time for an object falling into a black hole will completely stop for a view from the outside.

Also, the possibility of combining these hypotheses in one proportion or another is not excluded.

1. In accordance with Article 213 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, certain categories of workers must undergo mandatory medical examinations. These primarily include workers engaged in heavy work and work with harmful and (or) dangerous working conditions (including underground work), as well as in work related to traffic. They undergo mandatory preliminary (when they start work) and periodic (for persons under the age of 21 - annual) medical examinations (examinations) to determine the suitability of these workers for the performance of the assigned work and the prevention of occupational diseases.

The employer does not have the right to allow employees to perform their labor duties without undergoing mandatory medical examinations, as well as in case of medical contraindications.

The Labor Code obliges the employer to conduct medical examinations of employees in cases provided for Russian legislation. Such cases are established in many different levels of regulations, which makes it difficult to clarify the issue of the need for a medical examination for a particular employee.

Consider the requirements of labor legislation aimed at ensuring the health of an employee, as well as cases where the employer has the right or is directly obliged to organize and pay for medical examinations of employees.

Rights and obligations of the employer

The obligation of the employer to conduct medical examinations is enshrined in Art. 212 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

In the cases provided for by labor legislation, the employer is obliged to ensure, at his own expense, mandatory preliminary and periodic medical examinations of employees, as well as extraordinary medical examinations of employees at their request in accordance with medical recommendations, while retaining their place of work and average earnings for the duration of these medical examinations. .

Preliminary medical examinations are carried out upon hiring, periodic - during the working life of employees with a frequency, the procedure for determining which is established by regulatory enactments providing for mandatory periodic medical examinations for this category of workers. Moreover, such an act can be not only Labor Code Russian Federation or other federal law, but also any by-law normative act containing labor law norms.

Moreover, Art. 34 federal law dated March 30, 1999 No. 52-FZ "On the sanitary and epidemiological well-being of the population" it is said that, if necessary, based on the proposals of the sanitary and epidemiological supervision bodies, decisions of regional bodies state power or local governments in individual organizations (workshops, laboratories and other structural subdivisions) additional indications for medical examinations of employees may be introduced.

The employer must be aware of all such requirements established by state and municipal regulations, since Art. 212 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation prohibits the admission of workers to the performance of labor duties without passing mandatory, that is, prescribed by state authorities or local governments, medical examinations. An employee who has not passed the appropriate medical examination and has started work, the employer, in accordance with Art. 76 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation should be suspended from work.

During the period of non-admission to work and suspension from it wage the employee is not charged. But if the employee did not pass the mandatory medical examination through no fault of his own, he is paid for the entire time of suspension from work as for downtime.

Article 214 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation determines that the passage of mandatory preliminary and periodic medical examinations is the duty of an employee. However, in Art. 219 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation says that passing an extraordinary medical examination in accordance with medical recommendations is already the right of an employee, which he can exercise at his own discretion. Ensuring both mandatory and extraordinary medical examinations, as well as maintaining the employee's place and average earnings for the duration of such medical examinations, is the responsibility of the employer.

For violation of labor legislation and labor protection in Art. 5.27 of the Code of Administrative Offenses for the employer, administrative liability is established in the form of a fine for officials - from 1,000 to 5,000 rubles, for legal entities - from 30,000 to 50,000 rubles. However, instead of paying a fine against legal entities administrative suspension of their activities for up to 90 days is possible.

Mandatory medical examinations

Article 69 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation establishes the obligation of the employer to conduct a medical examination underage workers at the conclusion employment contract. A similar obligation applies to other employees in cases provided for by the Labor Code of the Russian Federation and other federal laws.

Article 213 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation states that workers engaged in heavy work and work with harmful working conditions undergo mandatory preliminary and periodic (for persons under the age of 21 - annual) medical examinations. Works in the course of which mandatory preliminary and periodic medical examinations are carried out, and the procedure for conducting such examinations are determined by regulatory legal acts in the manner established by the federal executive body authorized by the Government of the Russian Federation.

For most professions, the rules for conducting mandatory medical examinations are approved by order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated August 16, 2004 No. 83. According to sub. 3.3 of these rules, the frequency of periodic medical examinations is determined by the territorial bodies of the Federal Service for Supervision of Consumer Rights Protection and Human Welfare together with the employer based on the specific sanitary-hygienic and epidemiological situation. At the same time, periodic medical examinations should be carried out at least once every two years.

For individual professions, for example for workers road transport, steeplejacks, the procedure for passing medical examinations is approved by special regulations. And for employees of departmental security, the Federal Law of April 14, 1999 No. 77-FZ “On Departmental Security” establishes an annual frequency of mandatory medical examinations.

Additional medical examination

Despite the similarity of the procedures carried out during the mandatory medical examination and additional medical examination, legal regulation these two types of medical measures are different.

Additional medical examination is characterized in the order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated February 4, 2010 No. 55n “On the procedure for conducting additional medical examination of working citizens” (hereinafter - order No. 55n) as carried out by municipal and state systems health care, functioning in the compulsory medical insurance system, medical examinations aimed at early detection and prevention of diseases, including socially significant ones. Unlike mandatory medical examinations, employees of all professions can participate in medical examinations. In addition, participation in medical examinations is a right for an employee, not an obligation.

The legislation also does not provide for the responsibility of the employer for the failure of his employees to undergo additional medical examinations. In a letter dated 07.10.2008 No. 7694-VS “On additional medical examinations”, the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia does not classify medical examinations as mandatory medical examinations, which means that all the above requirements related to the provision of mandatory medical examinations do not apply to the participation of the employer in medical examinations.

Thus, ensuring that employees undergo medical examinations during working hours, as well as maintaining their place and average earnings for the duration of medical examinations, according to general rule is a right, not an obligation, of the employer. This right becomes an obligation only in the case of passing the medical examination provided for in Art. 254 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, by pregnant women in accordance with the regulation approved by the order of the Ministry of Health and Social Development of Russia dated March 30, 2006 No. 224.

Additional medical examination in 2010 is carried out in accordance with Order No. 55n. Additional medical examinations in 2010 are subject to working citizens who did not undergo it in previous years, as well as citizens employed in jobs with harmful working conditions, regardless of the timing of previous in-depth medical examinations. In accordance with the Decrees of the Government of the Russian Federation of December 30, 2006 No. 860 and of December 24, 2007 No. 921, citizens who underwent additional medical examinations in 2007, 2008 or 2009 are not subject to additional additional medical examinations in 2010.

Order No. 55n recommends that regional executive authorities carry out work on organizing additional medical examinations together with territorial compulsory medical insurance funds. Employers are not obligated to participate in providing medical examinations by this order.
