The introductory part sets out the goals and objectives of the new regulations. That is, an explanation is provided for the decisions made. If this is an order adopted in pursuance of government regulations, the introductory part indicates the number of this order, date and title.
Administrative part
The beginning of this part is the phrase “I command.” After this, you need to record your orders. You can create a numbered list for ease of presentation. The deadline for the execution of orders is either set for each item separately, or placed in a separate item. A separate paragraph also contains a list of employees responsible for implementing the provisions of the order.

What set of title documents should an LLC have?
In the process of conducting any commercial activity, an organization uses a set of documents confirming the right to carry out certain actions. In the activities of an LLC, there are title and constituent documents, which are often confused with each other.
According to the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, the only constituent document of any legal entity is the Charter. It contains all the basic information about the activities of the organization, the interaction between its participants, the size of the authorized capital (AC), the equity participation of shareholders and much more. All other documentation about the organization is legal.
Title documentation is a type of mandatory paper with the help of which an organization obtains the right to carry out its activities and on the basis of which powers are assigned to participants in the organizational process.
The process of creating title documentation requires the participation of all members of the organization, who must approve and sign the following documents:
- The decision to create an LLC. It is adopted at a general meeting, where all founders with the right to sign and vote must be present. At the meeting, a vote is held to determine the specifics of the future activities of the LLC. Here the size of the management company is determined, the amount of contributions made by each founder, the Charter of the LLC is determined, a director and an official authorized to register the company with state authorities are appointed.
- Agreement for establishing an organization. According to it, the share participation of each founder is outlined, and his rights and obligations in the process of carrying out commercial activities are determined. A separate paragraph may prescribe in it the rules of action when one of the founders leaves the organization and the process of repurchasing its shares by other participants or third parties.
- Application for registration. The application is drawn up in form No. P110011, and must comply with the norms of the Federal Tax Service of the Russian Federation. The application must include the KVED codes that will correspond to the areas of the enterprise’s activities. If the application is completed incorrectly, registration will be denied.
Based on these documents, LLC registration is carried out. However, that's not all. Legal documentation also includes:
- certificate of registration of LLC as a legal entity;
- certificate of registration with the Federal Tax Service;
- certificate of registration with the Pension Fund of the Russian Federation;
- papers on registration with Social Security and Medical Insurance funds;
- certificate confirming the introduction of changes to the register of legal entities (if any);
- documents confirming the formation of the authorized capital;
- additional documents for carrying out activities: certificates, licenses, issued shares;
- documents on the property of the enterprise;
- extracts from Rosstat;
- Decision and Order on the appointment of the general director of the LLC, indicating his powers and responsibilities.
Upon receipt of any copies or restoration of papers, they also become the basis of title documentation mandatory for the activities of the LLC.
The procedure for organizing the activities of an LLC is regulated by Article 12 of the Law on LLCs.
The list of constituent documentation necessary for the activities of an LLC is established by Article 52 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation.
How to properly develop, approve, agree
- Who develops it? The specialists responsible for the development of LNA are identified and approved by the manager.
- Development. It is written from scratch or a standard document is taken as a basis, into which the necessary adjustments are made to suit the specifics of a particular organization.
- Coordination. The project is coordinated with specialized departments and lawyers. If required by a collective agreement, with a trade union. Certain documents require mandatory approval from employees - for example, a vacation schedule. During the approval process, changes and adjustments are made to the project.
- Statement. The agreed document is submitted to the manager for signature.
- Familiarization. The approved LNA is handed over to employees for reading. The method of indicating the number and list of employees in local regulations for review and signature is chosen by the developers themselves. If there are few employees, an introductory sheet is attached at the end of the document; if the organization is large, a separate journal is drawn up. All employees are familiarized with documents of a general nature; if the LNA is of a specialized nature, those who are directly related to the activities regulated in the document.
Is it necessary to familiarize employees with documents?
Not all LNA require mandatory familiarization. says that it is necessary to familiarize workers with those regulatory documents that are directly related to work activities. For example, a business trip clause is not signed by a person who does not travel anywhere.
Rostrud’s letter No. PG/4653-6-1 states that the staffing table relates to LNA, but is not directly related to activities. Thus, it is not necessary for employees to be familiar with it.
IMPORTANT!
Some features of familiarization with the regulatory documents of the enterprise are established in the collective agreement or other legal regulations.

• About hiring; • On dismissal by agreement of the parties; • Dismissal due to the end of the contract; • Dismissal due to termination of a contract with preliminary testing; • Dismissal due to appearing at work while intoxicated; • About dismissal for absenteeism; • On suspension from work; • On granting leave; • On payment of compensation; • On postponing leave due to illness; • On the establishment of irregular working hours; • About changes in the staffing table; • About transfer to part-time work; • About bonuses; • On the imposition of disciplinary sanctions; • About transfer to another position; • On deduction of the cost of the work book from wages; • On the withholding of alimony; • On provision of parental leave; • About changing the surname;

The responsibility for developing LND lies with both the LLC and the individual entrepreneur. Liability for lack of documentation is regulated by clause 1 of Art. 5.27 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation - violation of legislation and other regulations that contain labor law norms. If an enterprise does not have a provision on the protection of personal data, liability may arise, including criminal liability.
There is a category of employers exempt from LNA: individuals and owners of micro-enterprises. The latter include the conditions that are prescribed in the LNA in the text of the employment contract. They enter into standard agreements, the form of which is approved by the government.
