In the state Duma is preparing a bill on maternity leave for men
. the Deputy of the state Duma from LDPR Vasily Vlasov is preparing a draft law which will enable men to take a 10-day paid leave at the birth of the child, the initiative he also sent to the Minister of labour and social protection Maxim Topilin.
"at this point I worked out a draft law on introducing changes to the Labour rule of the Russian Federation, which will provide the possibility of providing a 10-day leave for men in the case of the birth of child with pay. The existing law is poorly focused on protecting the rights of men-fathers, for this reason I consider it necessary to strengthen the regulatory activities in this direction ", - says Vlasov in a letter to Topilin, the text of the address is placed at the disposal of Last news .
As explained by the Deputy, in the existing labor law provides additional benefits for persons with family responsibilities, but for men in the case of the birth of the child provided only up to five days of leave without pay.
"It should be noted the fact that the law of the European Union recently implemented similar changes. In view of the above, please give your assessment of this initiative and also to manage to perform the possibility of its implementation ", - he said.
As before stated Last news in the press service of the European Parliament, the European Parliament and the European Council approved the Commission's proposal to introduce in the countries-members of EU mandatory one-time paternity leave for newborn care for a period exceeding ten working days.
