📋 Tender Overview
SRZP introduced a bill to the State Duma, which proposes to count the entire period of child care - not one and a half, but three years - into the insurance period and remove the six-year limit for the maximum length of service that can be counted for children; the document was published in the electronic database of the State Duma.
“This draft federal law proposes to provide for the following legal mechanisms for the social protection of maternity: ... increasing the period of child care counted in the insurance period from one and a half to three years ... recognizing as no longer in force the provision establishing the maximum period of insurance experience that can be counted for the period of child care... establishing an individual pension coefficient for calculating the amount of the insurance pension for periods of caring for the fourth child and subsequent children,” follows from the text of the explanatory note.
As party leader Sergei Mironov explained in his Telegram channel, mothers often cannot go to work earlier, including due to a lack of places in nurseries; as a result, a woman loses a year and a half of experience, due to a “ceiling” of six years for the maximum length of service that can be counted for children, according to him, the insurance period is now accrued only at the birth of four children, and nothing for the fifth and subsequent ones.
“Mothers of five or more children still need to get nine years of experience to retire early. It turns out that if you gave birth to five, you still have to work for another ten years. Mothers of many children should receive gratitude from the state, not ultimatums. And the pension system should encourage fertility and large families, and not vice versa. Our amendments are aimed at this,” the deputy said.
