Good evening from what hours. How long does the day begin

What time does the evening start? When does evening end and night begins?

It is usually customary to divide the day into day, evening, night, morning into 4 equal parts, that is, 6 hours each.

The generally accepted (which is more common) division looks like this:

12.00 - 18.00 is the day.

18.00 - 24.00 is the evening.

00.00 - 6.00 - night.

6.00 - 12.00 is the morning.

But there is another division, the followers of which are based, for example, on physiological ones. Followers of medical fasting and a healthy lifestyle claim that from 3.00 to 5.00 is a dew point; when new blood is born, which means that a person should sleep at this time.

From 5.00 to 7.00 new blood is born, at this time a person should have breakfast.

From 17.00 - 1.00 hours. If you take food at this time, then the blood dies.

Or in business etiquette it is customary to say good evening starting already at 17.00.

Therefore, there is such a division into evening, night, day and morning.

17.00 - 23.00 is the evening.

23.00 - 5.00 is the night.

5.00 - 11.00 - morning.

11.00 - 17.00 is the day.

If you think about it, there is logic in this. After all, it is customary to go to bed at 23.00, and some even earlier. Centenarians are already on their feet at 5 am. Previously, at 5, they got up and milked the cows, fed the cattle, and took them out to graze. And the roosters crow when it's already light. begin to crow as early as 5.00.

The classical arrangement of time in a day is elementary, but as a rule, no one knows it :)

If 00 and 12 are midnight and noon, which means middle cannot be morning from 6 to 12 and night from 00 to 6 for example ...

Everything is proportional.

Night - from 22 to 02 o'clock (00 o'clock - midnight)

Morning - from 02 to 07 hours.

Afternoon - from 07:00 to 17:00 (12:00 noon)

Evening - from 17 to 22 hours.

Everything is logical, at 17 o'clock they have lunch and drink tea, this is the beginning of the evening.

It lasts 5 hours - all the time it gets dark. Then night - all the beneficial processes in the human body,

flow in a dream at this particular time (if you go to bed later than 2 hours, then they do not flow at all!)

In old films, you can easily hear: "he called me at two in the morning"; because it's right! And the morning also goes 5 o'clock - at this time wars and battles began, at about 3-4 in the morning we got up in the villages earlier to do the housework. The day begins at 7 o'clock!

It is ten o'clock in the evening, but the same time at night means the night comes after ten

Three o'clock in the morning, but four o'clock in the morning, which means morning comes at four o'clock

Eleven o'clock in the morning, but twelve is already noon - which means that the border between morning and afternoon comes after ten.

It is more difficult with the border of day and evening, but in my opinion it is five o'clock, this is already the evening and probably the border of the day is determined by four o'clock in the afternoon.

This is purely my reasoning and feelings, so I could be wrong - criticism is accepted.

For some reason I always thought like this:

0-6 hours is NIGHT.

6-12 hours is MORNING

12-18 hours is DAY

18-24 hours is EVENING

This is, so to speak, "legally". And in life - evening, when the sunset is close, morning - when the sun is still low. Night - as soon as it gets dark.

Perhaps, any person who is aware of the world around him knows that evening is the time of day that comes after the day and precedes the onset of night. As long as our home planet rotates on its axis, evening, like morning, will be a cyclical process that accompanies our life day after day (or evening after evening?). When does it begin? How many hours? The evening comes into its own from the moment when ...

Finally, the long-awaited (or disturbing) day has arrived when you have every good reason to believe that you have become pregnant. It can be a prolonged absence of menstruation or just a woman's intuition - it doesn't matter. In any case, you need to run to the pharmacy for a pregnancy test. But a logical question immediately arises - when is it better to do a pregnancy test, how many days after the supposed conception will the test reveal the pregnancy as reliably as possible? If…

Our world is imperfect, primarily due to the lack of world standards. They are, of course, there, but not everywhere. As for the time, here too Mir decided not to use a single system, but to use two at once - French (here) and English (those same AM and PM). Whatever one may say, but this approach introduces confusion. I suggest you put an end to her right now and find out what AM is and ...

We all love to listen to music loudly, have a party, or drill a couple of holes in the walls with our favorite hammer drill. But don't forget about the comfort of your neighbors. They won't always be happy to appreciate the power of your acoustics or tolerate the howl of a drill until 6am. So, how long and how long can you make noise? The law takes care of the peace of the citizens of our country and provides for a "period of silence", which starts at 23.00 ...

“I'll see you tomorrow morning”, “we'll call you in the morning” ... We quite often use such phrases, only then it often turns out that everyone's morning begins and ends at different time. What time span can really be considered morning?

In fact, it is difficult to say unequivocally when the morning begins. There are many definitions - folk, astronomical, official - and each of them in its own way defines the boundaries between the times of the day. Some people generally use the simple principle “ When I woke up - then the morning", So it turns out that for someone morning is five o'clock in the evening.

Until a person began to use artificial lighting, morning began at sunrise, and evening at sunset... The length of daylight hours determined the length of the "worker's" day. Some people still use such a distinction, but after all, the time of sunrise and sunset shifts depending on the season - the division of the time of day is too fuzzy. In addition, it is not clear how to draw the line between evening and night, morning and afternoon. That is, it is clear when the morning begins, but it is impossible to objectively determine when it ends and the day begins.

In addition, each language has its own stable expressions time of day... For example, in Russian they say "two in the morning", but in most cases - "four in the morning", that is, four o'clock is already morning, although in winter it may be still dark outside the window at this time. But, unfortunately, such descriptive constructions do not help to clearly distinguish between morning and day, evening and night: it so happens that someone is used to saying "three in the morning", and someone - "three in the morning."

And in many English-speaking (and not only) countries, it is generally accepted to use 12 hour format time, and divide the day into just two periods - before noon (a.m., ante meridiem) and after noon (p.m., post meridiem). It is not customary for them to use descriptive constructs (although this does not mean that they do not use them at all), so the problem of sharing the time of day remains.

So it turns out that in every country, and even every person has his own subjective perception of the time of day related to the customs of the country and their own daily routine. For example, most office workers associate morning with the beginning of the working day, afternoon with lunch break, and evening with the end of the working day.

But still - is it possible to somehow bring this into a unified system, and to distinguish between times of day so that you can clearly understand when the morning begins and ends? A lot of misunderstandings could have been avoided this way!

In most European countries, a single division of the day is adopted. According to this division, the day is divided into four equal intervals of six hours each.

It turns out that the times of day are distributed as follows:

• from 0 to 6 o'clock - night
• from 6 to 12 o'clock - morning
• from 12 to 18 hours - day
• from 18 to 24 hours - evening

It is reasonable to use such a system, for example, in business communication, when you need to be 100% sure that the customer and the contractor have the same morning: it so happens that the contractor is sure that he sent the customer the work in the morning, as agreed, and the customer has it time is already day. And how can you understand who is right and who is wrong, if everyone is judging by their own criteria? For this, a common European system is needed - so as not to ask the question “ And when does the morning end and the day begin?»

An irregular work schedule is a reality for representatives of many professions. At the same time, it is not only the first responders who are forced to work at night. At the present time, night work is relevant for employees of logistics services, security guards and watchmen, cleaners of city streets, pharmacists of 24-hour pharmacies, gas station operators and representatives of dozens of other specialties.

When applying for a new job, a person may not even suspect that one day he will have to go out on the night shift or stay late at work. In today's text, we will tell you from what hour "night work" is considered, whether the employer is obliged to pay extra for after-hours, who is generally not allowed to shift at night, and whether it is realistic to abandon the inconvenient schedule according to the law.

According to the Russian code of labor laws, night work is considered to be working hours that last from ten in the evening until six in the morning, or if more than half of the working hours fall within this time period. If a person works in shifts, then when he goes out into the night, his schedule is reduced by an hour. A person should not work out these shortened sixty minutes later. The shift is not reduced in the following cases:

1. The employee is only hired to perform duties at night (does not have day shifts).
2. The employee already has a shorter schedule.
3. Works on a six-day shift week with a day off.
4. If the reduction is impossible due to the peculiarities of the labor process (for example, production).

An important point! The maximum number of hours worked at night cannot exceed forty per week. This is the norm established by law.

It is logical that the change of employee does not always fall strictly on the hours considered to be night. How, then, can you shorten the working time? Legally established - night work is considered to be half or more occurring between 22:00 and 06:00. It turns out that a person who works from midnight to eight in the morning works the night shift, since 80% of the work time is at night.

The employer should also adhere to the provisions of Article 103 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. It contains information that when scheduling night work, the boss should remember that night work can negatively affect personal, family and public life person. The problem lies in the difficulties in agreeing with the schedule of the rest of the household and the inability to build full-fledged social contacts, because at night a person is at work, and during the day, accordingly, he sleeps. It is logical that an employee who works exclusively at night may experience significant discomfort. There are also people for whom night work is completely prohibited.

Who can't work at night

The circle of people who are not allowed to shift at night is regulated by law. This is a fairly extensive list of citizens who have the right to refuse a boss who invites them to work after hours, without fear of being fired due to a breach of obligations.

Citizens exempt from night work:

1. Pregnant women.
2. Women with a child under the age of three.
3. Men and women.
   1. Having children with disabilities.
   2. Raising alone children under the age of five.
   3. Who are the guardians of children of the specified age.
4. Minors.
5. Disabled people.
6. Caring for sick family members.
7. Unable to work at night according to a medical report.

At the same time, the law makes amendments for representatives of some professions. Thus, journalists, film workers, television workers, circus workers, participants in creative processes, people involved in the creation of works of art and similar employees can work at night, regardless of belonging to the above list. The order of their work in this situation is regulated by labor and collective agreements, local acts and the decision of the commission that regulates social and labor relations. Athletes are also included in this list.

Logically, it turns out that the list allows, if desired, citizens belonging to all categories to work. For example, underage actors or circus performers, Paralympians may well work after hours by signing an agreement on paper (not just agreeing orally, but signing a document in which they indicate that they are familiar with their right to refuse night work, but are ready to her).

The only ones who cannot work at night under any circumstances are young ladies in an interesting position. A woman, having learned about pregnancy, has the right to immediately inform her superiors about this by presenting a medical certificate. Night work is considered a serious stress for the body of the expectant mother, so the employer must immediately transfer the woman to the same job, only in the daytime. If the day shift is not provided, the pregnant woman is looking for another occupation. If such is not found, the woman is freed from labor with the preservation of wages.

Pay for night work

There is no single normative document, act or other paper that would list all professions whose representatives can work at night and receive an appropriate additional payment for this. When applying for a job, which implies night shifts, a person can individually familiarize themselves with the industry agreement or other paper, which contains comprehensive information about the issue. Also, a new employee must sign a document in which he agrees to work at night and indicates that he is aware of the surcharge for "inconvenient" shifts.

Article 154 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation states that a person receives an increased wage for working at night. The code states that night hours are paid according to the contract (labor, collective), or the wage regulations. Each hour of the "night employee" must cost more than in the normal schedule, not lower than the norm established by law. That is, it is set at a minimum of 20%, while the real amount of additional payments always remains at the discretion of the employer.

For some categories of employees, night wages are established by ordinances of the Ministry of Labor. For employees of medical institutions, it is 50% of the hourly rate, while people who provide emergency and emergency assistance to citizens at night receive an increase of 100% of the hourly payment in normal daytime.

There are also 35% and 40% surcharges on the regular hourly rate. Let us consider in the form of a table, representatives of which professions are obliged to receive such a payment for night work.

Table 1. Who is entitled to an allowance for night work hours?

Let's take a look at the principles of increased pay using examples.

Example # 1. Ivan Semyonovich Trudnikov, who has worked in full for a month, must receive a salary of fifty thousand rubles. According to the standard, he went to shifts with a total duration of 175 hours, including 6 hours worked "overnight" for production needs. An order from the employer informs: additional payment for extracurricular work - 20% of the hourly rate. How much money will the employee be paid?

Let's determine what his hourly rate was. To do this, divide the salary by the number of hours worked (50,000 / 175 = 285.7 rubles). Since six hours must be paid at a twenty percent incremental rate, we multiply the hourly rate (RUB 285.7) by the number of "night hours" (there are six of them). We get 2057.1 rubles. Accordingly, from the total number of hours you need to subtract the "night" (175-6), multiply by the hourly rate and add the amount of payment for the night hours (2057.1 rubles). It turns out that the employee earned 50 thousand 342 rubles and 9 kopecks.

Example No. 2. Irina Igorevna Working day and night shifts at the plant. During the day - from nine in the morning to ten in the evening, on the other hand at night - from ten in the evening to nine in the morning. For "night" hours, the management pays Irina Igorevna 25% of the hourly rate of two hundred rubles. For a month, the employee worked four shifts per night.

Note that hours between 22:00 and 06:00 are considered "night" time (we wrote about this above). It turns out that the woman worked 32 hours a night shift (four shifts of 8 hours each, which does not contradict the legislation, recall that the maximum number of night hours is forty). With an additional payment of 25% to the hourly rate of 200 rubles, it turns out that a night hour costs 250 rubles. Accordingly, the additional payment for "night hours" will be 1 thousand 600 rubles (32 hours x 50 rubles additional payment). In addition, every hour on the night shift is paid at a rate of 200 rubles.

Example No. 3. Sergei Evgenievich Sleepless was forced not only to go to work at night, but also overtime. In total, the employee spent time at work from 22:00 to 09:00. At the same time, Sergey Evgenievich worked six hours above the monthly norm (from 03:00 to 09:00), three hours of processing fell on the night time (from 03:00 to 06:00). Let's calculate how much it costs to replace the Sleepless.

According to Article 152 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, for overtime work in the amount of the first two hours, one and a half increments are due, for subsequent hours - a double. The standard working hour of the Sleepless One costs 200 rubles. Accordingly, for the hours from 22:00 to 06:00, he will receive 250 rubles each, taking into account the extra charge for night work of 25%. In the one and a half amount, the boss will pay for the first two hours of processing (from 03:00 to 05:00), in double - hours from 05:00 to 09:00. Thus, for a shift, Sergei Evgenievich will receive 3 thousand 600 rubles:

1. From 22:00 to 03:00 - 200 rubles x 5 hours = 1000 rubles.
2. Supplement for night work from 22:00 to 6:00 - (200 rubles x 25%) x 8 hours = 400 rubles.
3. From 03:00 to 05:00 - 200 rubles eh 1.5 x 2 hours = 600 rubles.
4. Payment from 05:00 to 09:00: 200 rubles x 2 x 4 hours = 1600 rubles.

It is possible to calculate the surcharge for those categories of employees for whom “night hours” are 50 and 100% more expensive than ordinary ones, using the same scheme. You need to multiply the number of hours worked per night by one and a half or two hourly rates.

Night hours: rest

Article 108 of the RF Labor Code regulates the organization of rest for employees who go out to night shifts. First of all, the code of laws stipulates the time for eating. The employer must allow the employee to have a snack, taking advantage of a time slot of at least thirty minutes. At the same time, the organization of the process of rest and meals falls on the shoulders of the authorities. In other words, the employee should be able to have a snack right at the enterprise or, if he brings food with him, use the kitchen organized in the premises where the work shift takes place.

Article 108. Breaks for rest and meals of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation

With regard to weekends and rest from work, everything is ambiguous here. Earlier, the model was adopted: "Shift - dump - day off - shift", implying that after night work a person is given two days to rest. The first is to sleep off, the second is to be able to deal with matters in the daytime. Now this model is not universal.

There are two rules. First, two night shifts in a row are prohibited for one employee, this rule applies to those who work both day and night. For workers who only go out on the night shift, it is impossible to put two nights in a row. That is, it is impossible to organize the labor process in such a way that a person went out "into the night", went home in the morning, and in the evening they are again expected for workplace... We remind you that a person cannot work more than forty "night" hours a month - this right of employees is enshrined in law.

Summarizing

Working the night shift is not always convenient and pleasant for the employees themselves. But modern society needs people on duty at night: doctors, rescuers, pharmacists, convenience store sellers, law enforcement officers and other representatives of different professions.

Therefore, night shifts are paid higher than similar work performed during the day. In addition, night workers are entitled to adequate rest, which somewhat compensates for extracurricular work. The main thing is to know your rights and understand that work on night shifts is much more difficult than day work, it takes more resources, and therefore requires more payment and attention from the authorities.

Night work is paid higher than day work

The so-called differentiated tariffs by time of day are intended directly for the purpose of saving money when paying for the selected tariff for electricity. According to the rules of established tariffs, there are several types of them: half-peak tariff, night tariff and day tariff, and these tariffs are regulated by local executive authorities and for each administrative entity there is its own framework.

What time does the night electricity tariff start?

When the question arises: what can be saved on, few people think that everything needs to be started with elementary and, first of all, with electricity. To do this, people are presented with the established tariffs for electricity. Many are interested in the hour from which the night electricity tariff is valid, but everything largely depends on the city and the prices fixed in it. The duties are usually set by local executive authorities, and they regulate all aspects and nuances of state regulation of tariffication.

The payment of the electricity bill will directly depend on the tariff of the meter, and also the time frame of the tariffs will vary depending on this.

At night, many consumers practically do not use electrical appliances, with the exception of stationary ones, such as a refrigerator, a Wi-Fi router and others. In connection with this incomplete use, the question arises: how can the overpayment for electricity be circumvented? This is precisely why the authorities have come up with tariffication.

Electricity meter tariffs:

1. Two-tariff format electricity meter. In this format, the time frame for the night rate is from 11 pm to 7 am, and the daytime rate is from 7 am to 11 pm.
2. Three-tariff format electricity meter. This type of charging is a separate format, since it combines: night charging zone, peak and half-peak. The time frame for the night zone will range from 11:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m., with the peak zone timing from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m., then from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Any remaining time will be counted as half-peak.

Action time: night electricity tariff

Fixing a certain cost of electricity for the night tariff and its validity time solves a number of specific problems, such as: reduces the excessive load on the power grid systems, significantly reduces the consumption of energy resources, contributes to the sound development of the ecological background in urban or rural areas.

The night tariff is especially important for consumers in rural areas, as it solves the problem directly with reducing the payment for the heating system.

Directly people do not know what time the night zone starts and how much the electricity bill is charged, and this would save a decent annual amount.

Timeframes for the Night Rate:

1. From 23-00 at night to 7-00 in the morning. With a fixed day-night rate. The payment for such a service of providing electricity is about 70% for ordinary users, and about 40% for institutions, deducting the cost of the daily tariff from this amount.
2. From 23-00 at night to 6-00 in the morning. With a fixed differentiation tariff, the three-zone tariff is different. The fee for using such a rate will be 35% for regular users and still 40% for institutions when deducting the amount for the half-peak period.

When deciding to switch to the form of a certain tariff, one should consider its advantages and disadvantages and proceed directly from the needs and time of using the light.

Benefits:

• Saving money on payments for using the centralized heating system, this method is, first of all, beneficial for residents;
• For those who are engaged in construction, such a tariff will become economically profitable, since the payment for electricity will decrease;
• The increase in the use of electricity services, the use of special equipment for the generation of electricity, the reduction of the emission of harmful substances into the ecological environment will be a godsend for energy companies;
• Production savings are beneficial to institutions.

The disadvantages are as follows. Electricity consumption is still actively continuing at night and violates the permissible noise level. Entrepreneurs successfully save on electricity bills at night, thereby covering the amount salaries employees. Meters with a phase functionality have a fairly high cost, and they can certainly break down quickly.

Electricity and time: day-night tariff

The amount of payment for electricity increases significantly over time and this process is immediate. It is in connection with this problem that saving on electricity becomes one of the most pressing topics for discussion. The most in an efficient way saving additional funds, while saving on electricity will be the purchase of a meter with a phase functionality.

The time frame for the day-night tariff is from 23-00 pm to 7-00 am inclusive and from 7-00 am to 23-00 pm.

In order to switch to this method of calculating the tariff, it is necessary to purchase a two-tariff meter that will comply with the regime of this tariffication, as well as know the conditions that allow the user to switch to another tariff.

Conditions:

• No outstanding bills for the use of electricity supply services;
• Fee for the provision of tariff identification services for electricity supply;
• Registration of a special agreement of both parties for the provision of services for the supply of electricity and its consumption.

In explaining the concepts of tariffs and their modifications, you can often see that the payments of the population and institutions are different and fluctuate in different percentages.

Who belongs to the privileged group of the population:

• Residents of rural areas, villages in particular, various buildings of local residents, areas of civilian residence at military facilities and prisons;
• Communities of home owners, building and housing cooperatives, private entrepreneurs managing high-rise residential buildings;
• Summer cottages;
• Garage buildings.

Churches that live on civic contributions also enjoy benefits.

Peak Electricity Zone: Time

The peak zone is a special time of day when there is a colossal load on the power supply network. This zone is considered to be a double zone, as it gives the maximum load on electricity. The time interval of the network load confirms that this zone is daylight, since when getting ready for work, people consume a lot of electricity, actively using household appliances such as a kettle, hairdryer, irons, toasters, TVs, etc.

There are several types of zones:

1. Night zone. In the process of the influence of the area of ​​influence of this phase, the night time from 23-00 to 7-00 in the morning is the minimum with the waste of electricity, since it is at night that all devices that intensively produce electricity stop working and the load on the network becomes uniform.
2. Morning peak. The format of this zone is spread over the time frame from 7-00 to 10-00 in the morning, mainly during mass gatherings of people at their destinations and their intensive use of electricity.
3. Half-peak. The area of ​​impact on electricity from 10-00 am to 17-00 pm due to the selective return of residents home and a significant load on electricity.
4. Evening peak. The zone spreads over a time frame from 17-00 to 21-00 in the evening and is caused by the massive return of people to housing complexes and the huge use of electricity costs.
5. Half-peak 2. Evening timing of the phase starts from 21-00 and 23-00 active work with household appliances that consume huge masses of electric charge.

Electricity tariff day-night

The day-night electricity metering tariff is essentially two-phase and is already in effect in many cities. Russian Federation, and in particular it is popular in Moscow, as it coincides very favorably with the residents' stay in houses and the active time of using electricity.

The tariff is beneficial:

• Users who actively use electrical appliances;
• Residents, in whose houses there is a warm floor or a convection heating system, a warm baseboard, the power of which is consumed by electricity at any time of the day.

Benefits of the night electricity rate

The night tariff is the second most popular among tariffs for electricity charges, since at this time residents do not actively consume electricity, then, therefore, they can pay less for it, or, on the contrary, rationally adjust their use of equipment at night.

Benefit:

• The property has a dacha where electrical appliances are rarely used;
• If there is a place for electricity in the house - gas.

In order to understand the rules for installing a new meter, the terms of payment for the tariff of any phase, it is necessary, for example, to visit the petroelectric sales department where the functionality of a detailed examination of each district of the city is possible. It is profitable to install a counter of two tariffs, acting according to the law.

What is the advantage of the night electricity tariff (video)

If you do not pay attention to the fact that at night, residents mostly spend all their time sleeping, then household appliances continue to work: for example, an air conditioner or a warm floor in an apartment, a refrigerator, etc. In this case, it makes sense to switch to a differentiated tariff for electricity bills, which will begin to save money on utilities.
