Russian citizens may be granted up to 90 days of paid leave to care for elderly relatives.
Consensus
- A proposal was made in the Russian State Dума to introduce an additional paid annual leave for workers needing to accompany elderly parents for medical treatment.
- The proposed leave would be between three and five calendar days per year.
- The initiative was submitted by Deputy Speaker Boris Chernyshov to the Minister of Labor, Anton Kotyakov.
- Currently, employees often have to use their annual paid leave or take unpaid leave to care for elderly parents.
Points of divergence
- A proposal suggests up to 90 days of paid leave for caring for bedridden patients and up to 14 days after surgery or injury, which contradicts the three-to-five-day range proposed by Chernyshov. — tg_mosguru
