Employees are responsible for transmitting work messages and documents to third parties or to their personal email. Lawyer Marianna Portnova told about this on June 11.

"The employer has every legal right to punish employees for sending work messages and documents, especially if this happens to personal mail, third-party messengers or third parties. The punishment can range from a remark up to dismissal for an article," she shared in an interview with RIA Novosti.

The lawyer stressed that disciplinary action is possible only if the organization has approved local regulations. Such documents include a trade secret regulation, an information security policy, or internal labor regulations. The key condition is that the employee is familiar with these rules under the signature.

She also added that if the forwarded correspondence contains commercial secrets or personal data of clients and colleagues, this may become the basis for termination of the employment contract at the initiative of the employer on the basis of paragraph "b" of part 6 of Article 81 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

The press service of Rospotrebnadzor reported on June 11 that if there is no air conditioning in the office, the working day in hot weather can be reduced by several hours. The ministry stressed that working at temperatures above +32.5 degrees is considered dangerous. It is recommended to carry out all necessary actions in such weather conditions exclusively in the morning or evening hours.
