Russian Trade Union of Nuclear Industry Workers. Our partners

The Russian Trade Union of Nuclear Energy and Industry Workers was founded in March 1992, and its origin dates back to January 1948 - from the birth of the industry, when at one of the meetings of the Secretariat of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of the Soviet Union (Bolsheviks) it was adopted "... the proposal of the All-Union Central Council of Trade Unions to establish the position of an authorized All-Union Central Council of Trade Unions on trade union organizations of enterprises of the First Main Directorate...".

It unites primary trade union organizations of state unitary enterprises, organizations, institutions, educational institutions, joint-stock companies of the country's nuclear complex. It has a simple structure: primary - the Central Committee of the trade union. 160 primary trade union organizations contact the Trade Union Central Committee directly.

RPRAEP is an all-Russian trade union. As of January 1, 2011, the Russian Trade Union of Nuclear Energy and Industry Workers (RPRAEP) unites 160 trade union organizations, which include 308,551 trade union members, which is 68.6% of the total workforce of 449,518 people. In addition, 109,147 non-working pensioners and 13,134 students are registered with trade union organizations. The total number of members of the trade union, taking into account non-working pensioners and students, is 430,832 people.

Three associations have been created within the trade union: the Association of trade union organizations of nuclear power plants (headed by Y.K. Babenko, chairman of the primary trade union organization of the Novovoronezh NPP), the Association of trade union organizations of nuclear weapons complex enterprises (headed by I.A. Nikitin, chairman of the primary trade union organization of the RFNC-VNIIEF) and the Association of Trade Union Organizations of the Fuel Company (headed by Yu.V. Borisov, Chairman of the primary trade union organization of OJSC NZHK).

RPRAEP cooperates closely with the Federation of Independent Trade Unions of Russia on the basis of a bilateral agreement. Also, under the agreement, RPRAEP works with the Moscow Federation of Trade Unions.

The priority when solving statutory tasks for the RPRAEP is the principle of social partnership. Since 2001 Industry agreements are concluded between the Ministry of Atomic Energy (then the Atomic Energy Agency, the state corporation Rosatom), the Union of Employers and the industry trade union. To monitor the implementation of the OS, an industry commission has been created, which regularly (every 2-3 months) meets and sums up the implementation of the Industry Agreement, discusses the most important, pressing social problems.

The trade union is active internationally. It is a full member of three international trade unions: the International Organization of Energy and Mine Workers, the World Nuclear Workers Council and the Right to Energy International Energy Workers Association, and also cooperates with many other international trade union centers and organizations.
