President of Russian Federation

The federal law determines the conditions, amounts and procedure for providing benefits for temporary disability, for pregnancy and childbirth to citizens subject to compulsory social insurance.

Previously, in accordance with paragraph 30 of the Regulations, approved by the Decree of the Presidium of the All-Union Central Council of Trade Unions of November 12, 1984 N 13-6, the amount of the allowance was determined depending on the length of continuous work experience. In accordance with the law, the amount of the benefit depends on the length of the insurance period, which includes periods of work under an employment contract, state civil or municipal service, as well as periods of other activities during which the citizen was subject to compulsory social insurance in case of temporary disability and in connection with motherhood. The amount of the temporary disability benefit is: 100% of the average earnings for persons with an insurance record of 8 or more years; 80% - for persons with insurance experience from 5 to 8 years and 60% if the insurance experience is less than 5 years. The benefit for pregnancy and childbirth is paid to an insured woman in the amount of 100% of the average earnings, if she has an insurance period of more than 6 months, otherwise the amount of the benefit should not exceed 1 minimum wage.

It is established that the federal law on the budget of the Social Insurance Fund of the Russian Federation for the next financial year determines the maximum amount of disability benefits, as well as benefits for pregnancy and childbirth.

Temporary disability benefit is granted in the following cases:

1) disability due to illness or injury, including in connection with an operation for artificial termination of pregnancy or in vitro fertilization;

2) the need to care for a sick family member;

3) quarantine of the insured person, as well as the quarantine of a child under the age of 7 attending a preschool educational institution, or another family member recognized as legally incompetent;

4) implementation of prosthetics for medical reasons in a stationary specialized institution;

5) post-treatment in accordance with the established procedure in sanatorium-resort institutions located on the territory of the Russian Federation, immediately after inpatient treatment.

At the same time, temporary disability benefits due to illness or injury are paid for the entire period of disability until the day of restoration of working capacity or the establishment of disability with limited ability to work. Disabled persons are paid temporary disability allowance for no more than four consecutive months or five months in a calendar year, except for the case of tuberculosis. In the event that temporary incapacity for work has occurred as a result of a deliberate infliction of harm to one's health or a suicide attempt established by the court, or as a result of a deliberate crime committed by a person, the award of temporary disability benefits is refused. If temporary disability has occurred due to illness or injury, then the payment of benefits for the first two days of temporary disability is carried out at the expense of the employer, and starting from the third day - at the expense of the Social Insurance Fund. In other cases, the payment of benefits is carried out at the expense of the Fund.

The term for applying for temporary disability benefits, pregnancy and childbirth benefits is six months from the date of restoration of working capacity or the end of maternity leave, respectively. The employer assigns benefits for temporary disability, pregnancy and childbirth within 10 calendar days from the date the person applied for it with the necessary documents and pays benefits on the next day after the appointment, set for the payment of wages.

The federal law comes into force on January 1, 2007 and applies to insured events that occur after the date of its entry into force.

255-FZ "On compulsory social insurance in case of disability"

Federal Law No. 255 provides disabled citizens with benefits, determines the conditions for receiving and calculates the amount of money. Disabled persons include women in a position who receive monetary compensation for pregnancy and childbirth. Additionally, they are subject to compulsory social insurance under Federal Law-255.

Description of the law

255-FZ on compulsory social insurance in case of disability does not apply to the category of persons with temporary disability received at work. These persons should pay attention to the provisions of the Federal Law on compulsory medical insurance in the Russian Federation.

The law was passed on December 29, 2006. The last changes to FZ-255 were made on May 1, 2017.

Federal Law No. 255 presents the rights of citizens of compulsory insurance. This applies to persons who have received an industrial injury or gone on maternity leave. In case of temporary disability, 255-FZ determines the procedure, amount and conditions of monetary compensation. Depends on the type of grant:

  • by motherhood;
  • On maternity leave. Compensation is paid at the end of each month;
  • Occupational injury or illness.
  • Benefit payment procedure

    Article FZ-255 describes the procedure for assigning, the amount and payment of benefits for temporary disability during pregnancy and childbirth, a monthly allowance for child care.

    The amount of insurance monetary compensation under Federal Law-255 is determined by the insured, who is assigned to you at the place of work. An insured event has occurred, and the employee is registered in several places of work? The insured person is legally paid benefits for all registered places for the previous two calendar years.

    The monthly allowance for child care is paid by the insured only at one place of work.

    The payment and amount according to FZ-255 is assigned on the basis of a certificate of incapacity for work. It is issued by a medical institution in the form of a document in writing. It is then legally handed over to the employer for payment. It is possible to transfer in electronic form through the website of the insured.

    Sick leave

    The procedure for granting a sick leave according to the law is considered in article 13 of the 255-FZ.

    When filling out a sick leave, the following points are taken into account:

    The doctor fills in the sections and certifies with the seal of the medical institution.

    The doctor may not fill in the line - the place of work and the name of the company. The medical worker can independently enter the name of the company with a fountain, black gel or capillary pen. The certificate of incapacity for work cannot be filled in with a ballpoint pen. Ink of a different color is also not allowed.

    When filling out a sick leave, according to the law, according to Federal Law-255, the doctor does not have the right to make mistakes. If a discrepancy was found, a duplicate certificate of incapacity for work is issued.

    The employer must check the correctness of the form in accordance with FZ-255. If he accepted a sheet with errors, then the FSS of the Russian Federation will not reimburse him for expenses.

    Note: The presence in the disability certificate of technical defects in filling out by law is not a basis for creating a duplicate:

  • Hit of the press on the content of the text;
  • Putting spaces between full names doctors, etc..
  • Amendments to 255-FZ "On Compulsory Social Insurance in Case of Disability"

    Now FZ-255 on compulsory social insurance in case of disability regulates the legal norms on taxes and fees. The law intersects with the Tax Code of the Russian Federation. Federal Law-255 controls the correct calculation, timely and full payment of insurance premiums for reporting periods. Additionally, the following chapters of the law were amended:

  • The amount of indexation and payments was approved;
  • The limit value of the base;
  • The minimum wage.
  • Article 3

    Article 3 255-FZ states that the provision of insurance payments to insured persons is carried out at the expense of the state budget or at the expense of the insured.

    The amount of the allowance is paid according to the law:

  • Insured citizens in the first three days after the onset of temporary disability. The payment under Federal Law-255 is formed at the expense of the insured, starting from the 4th day of being on sick leave;
  • Insured citizens who voluntarily use the insurance policy.
  • Compensation for temporary disability in accordance with paragraphs 2-5 of part 1 of Art. 5 255-FZ is paid from the first day of temporary disability. No changes were made in the latest edition.

    Article 5

    Temporary disability benefits in FZ-255 are paid in the following cases:

  • Injury or serious illness according to the law;
  • Care needs of a sick person in the family;
  • Quarantine of a citizen and a child whose age is up to 7 years. Only if he attends preschool by law;
  • Staying in medical institutions for the implementation of prosthetics.

    Article 7

    FZ-255 contains the amount of temporary disability benefits in case of a serious illness or injury.

    The calculation criteria according to the law are as follows:

    • The length of service of the insured person is 8 or more years - the full amount of the average salary is paid (100% of the payment);
    • Experience from 5 to 8 years - 80% of the average salary;
    • Experience up to five years - 60 percent of the average salary is calculated.
    • The calculation of the allowance under the Nursing Act is as follows:

      The first 10 days the amount of the allowance is calculated depending on the length of service in accordance with Federal Law-255. For example, eight years of service provides for 100 percent payment of average earnings. But the health of the patient may not be restored within 10 days. The amount of monetary compensation in this case will be 50 percent of the average wage;

      When treating a child in a hospital, the amount of the benefit depends on the length of the insurance period.

      Insurance compensation in the amount of the minimum wage is calculated with an official insurance period of less than 6 months in accordance with Federal Law-255. In some regions, coefficients are provided for when calculating by law. For example, the amount of monetary compensation is equal to the size of the average wage + coefficient.

    • The insured person was under the influence of drugs, alcohol or other toxins.
    • The identification of one or more grounds in the Federal Law-255 helps to reduce the cash benefit to the amount of the minimum wage. The latest version of the law does not contain changes in the article.

      • The employee, by order of the employer, was released from work in whole or in part. The employer continues to calculate the average wage;
