The maximum amount paid for pregnancy and childbirth. Calculation of maternity payments

In 2019, the maternity allowance (MA) is paid at the place of work 100% of the average earnings... The amount paid is calculated based on the period of maternity leave granted, which is established on the basis of sick leaveissued in antenatal clinic observing doctor from 30 weeks of pregnancy.

    Minimum value BW benefits to employed women in 2019 for 140 sick days is RUB 51,919.00 It is calculated based on the minimum wage (minimum wage), which from January 1, 2019 is 11,280 rubles.

    This amount is set if the average earnings of the expectant mother is less than the minimum wage established in the current year, or if her insurance experience less than six months... If a pregnant woman works part-time, then the average salary is calculated in proportion to the length of her working hours.

  • The paid amount of maternity leave cannot exceed maximum (RUB 301,095.20 for 140 days of the decree, 335,506.08 rubles. - for 156 days of decree, 417,231.92 rubles. - for 194 days of the decree). It is determined from the limit values \u200b\u200bof the base for calculating insurance contributions to the Social Insurance Fund (FSS) for the two previous years. This value has been indexed annually since January 1, taking into account the increase in average earnings in the country.

How to calculate maternity

When calculating maternity leave, the average earnings of a woman over the past two years are taken into account (excluding days for maternity leave, parental leave, and days of temporary disability).

Thus, to determine average daily earnings (SDZ), the calculation is carried out according to the following formula:

SDZ \u003d SZ / Dn,

  • SZ- average earnings for calculating benefits (the amount of payments for the two previous years);
  • Day - the number of calendar days in two years (from which the days that are not taken into account when calculating the benefit should be subtracted).

For example, when calculating benefits based on the minimum wage in 2019, the average daily earnings will be:

SDZ \u003d (minimum wage × 24 months) / day \u003d (11280 × 24) / 730 \u003d 370.85 rubles,

  • SZ \u003d (Minimum wage × 24 months) - average earnings for 2 accounting years according to the minimum wage in effect at the time of registration of maternity leave;
  • Day \u003d 730 days - the number of days in the estimated years (2017 and 2018).

The accounting for the years preceding the accrual of benefits is selected based on the higher wages. In this case, there may be an increase in the amount of the benefit paid. Concerning accrual of "maternity", then for this there is the following formula:

P \u003d SDZ × T,

Example: Consider the example of 2017, in January, the employee of CJSC "Antares" Alferova I. K. was granted maternity leave. She gave birth to one healthy baby.

For the years preceding pregnancy, Alferova's total salary was:

  • 2015 \u003d 650,000 rubles;
  • 2016 \u003d 700,000 rubles.

For the calculation, it is necessary to indicate that in 2016, Alferova was on sick leave for 30 days.

  • 600,000 + 700,000 \u003d 1,300,000 rubles.
  • 1 350 000 / (365 days + 366 days - 30 days) \u003d 1925.82
  • However, according to Federal Law of Russia No. 255-FZ, the amount of the benefit cannot be higher than the maximum permissible level established by the Social Insurance Fund Russian Federation... This amount in 2017 was limited to 1,898.77 rubles (based on the maximum size of the insurance base for 2015 and 2016 - 670 and 718 thousand rubles, respectively). Therefore, the employee was charged on the basis of the above amount.
  • 1898.77 RUB / day × 140 days. \u003d RUB 265 827.80
  • Thus, the amount received by Alferova as "maternity" amounted to 265,827 rubles. 80 kopecks.

Based on the foregoing, the amounts due to women in labor are limited to the following figures.

If a woman in labor lives in areas where there are minimum wage rates, then calculation of maternity is calculated as follows:

P mrot \u003d SDZ × RK × T,

  • P mrot - the sum of maternity wages, taking into account the minimum wage coefficient;
  • SDZ - average daily earnings;
  • RK - regional coefficient;
  • T is the number of vacation days.

Minimum amount of maternity allowance in 2019

As for the minimum amount of maternity pay, the amount cannot be lower than the minimum wage (minimum wage), which from January 1, 2019 is 11,280 rubles. Thus, the amount of due maternity (minimum amount) is calculated using the formula:

(11280 × 24) / 730 × 140 \u003d 51,919.00 rubles,

  • 11280 - minimum wage;
  • 24 - months in two years;
  • 730 - total days in the previous two years (2017 and 2018);
  • 140 - days off sick leave for pregnancy and childbirth.

This amount is paid expectant mother in the following cases:

  • her insurance experience is less than 6 months;
  • the average wage for two years is below the minimum wage;
  • she is an entrepreneur (lawyer, notary) who paid insurance premiums to the FSS for the previous year.

How much maternity pay to the unemployed

  • Dismissed in connection with the termination of the organization's activities - RUB 655.49... per month. Apply for receipt to the district department of social protection.
  • Studentsfull-time students, the amount of the allowance is equal to the value scholarships... An allowance is issued at an educational institution;
  • For military personnel under the contract in the amount received monetary allowance... For appointment and payment must be contacted at the place of service.

The rest of the categories of unemployed pregnant women not subject to compulsory social insurance, they have no right to to receive benefits for BiR. For them, only benefits are provided to be paid by the territorial APS after the birth of a child.

23.08.2019

Maternity allowance is a type of financial assistance that can be credited exclusively to the mother's account. The father and other legal representatives of the newborn cannot claim this payment.

IN general case the calculation of maternity takes place taking into account her earnings. Sometimes, when determining the amount, the minimum wage is taken into account - the minimum wage.


Who should be?

Low earnings

If during the billing periods the mother had no income, or it was small, when determining the maternity allowance, it is necessary to use the information specified in article 14 of the Federal Law No. 255.

According to the current legislation of the Russian Federation, under the circumstances specified earlier, the monthly salary of an employee is considered a minimum wage. In this case, the amount of maternity payments is determined by the following formula.

Calculation formula:

Min Pos. \u003d (Minimum wage x 24 / Number of days in a year) x Number of vacation days.

It is important to take into account that in this case there is no need to compare and calculate the average daily earnings, as is done with less than six months of experience.

The size of the minimum wage in 2019

It has already been indicated that the minimum wage is an annually changing value.

The current legislation of the Russian Federation determined the amount of the minimum wage from 01.01.2018 - 9489 rubles, from 01.05.2018 - 11,163 rubles, from 1 January 2019 - 11,280 rubles.

Important! It is important to take into account that in certain regions of the country the value of the minimum wage may differ.

The current legislation of the Russian Federation does not prohibit an increase in the established amount. Reducing the minimum wage established on the territory of the Russian Federation is prohibited. For example, in the Moscow region for 2018 it reaches 13,750 rubles, in the capital itself - 18,742 rubles.

Together with the minimum wage, the amount of workers' salaries also grows. This action must be recorded in the employment agreement concluded between the employer and the employee. At the same time, for calculating maternity wages, the federal minimum wage is taken, and not the regional one.

Minimum maternity in 2019.

The amount of maternity payment

The calculation of the minimum amount of maternity allowance is carried out taking into account recent years the work of the employee. If a woman goes on maternity leave in 2019, 2018 and 2017 are calculated.

If the beginning of the vacation falls on the period from January 1 to December 31, 2019, the minimum average daily wage of a woman is taken as an amount equal to 370.85 rubles. ((11280 x 24) / 730).

Thus, the lower limit for the benefit in 2019 \u003d 51,919 rubles. (370.85 x 140).

When multiple pregnancy a working mother receives the other smallest pay \u003d 370.85 x 194 \u003d 71,944.90 p.

For childbirth with complications \u003d 370.85 x 156 \u003d 57 852.60 p.

The specified amount is paid to women at a time when they go on maternity leave (maternity leave), at the end of which they draw up the continuation of the decree - leave to care for a child up to 3 years old.

During this period, material support is also paid - it is 40% of earnings, and if it is small, then 40% of the minimum wage, from 1.5 years - it is paid in the amount of 50 rubles.

February indexing

In February 2018, the indexation rules will come into force, which will be permanent. In accordance with them, child benefits will be subject to indexation in February of each year. In this case, it is planned to take into account the coefficient set by the government of the Russian Federation.

The following types of material assistance are subject to indexation:

  • a lump sum of money paid to women registered for early pregnancy;
  • a one-time payment credited to the account of one of the parents at the birth of a baby;
  • allowance paid monthly.

Important! The maternity benefit for pregnancy and childbirth is not subject to indexation, therefore, its minimum amount currently remains unchanged.

Useful video

For the amount of the minimum maternity allowance in 2018 and the planned changes, see the video:

The maternity allowance, calculated on the basis of the minimum wage, has a lower limit and is paid to those working women who have practically no work experience or income in the last 2 years.

The payment is carried out at the expense of social insurance contributions. Few working female employees do not yet have sufficient savings to receive a decent allowance, calculated according to their income. Therefore, the state financially supports this category of pregnant women, guaranteeing them a minimum amount of money.

To maintain the quality of life of a woman and an unborn child, the state assumes assistance to needy families. In the absence of an official place of work, they have the right to formalize social support measures that are paid by a state institution.

What compensation is due

The provision of maternity benefits to non-working women is regulated by federal legislation, in particular law 81effective May 19, 1995. It determines the types of benefits intended for this category of the population.

When intending to issue payments, a non-working pregnant woman must understand to which category of citizens she belongs. The fact is that there is a tangible difference between unemployed and unemployed, although maternity benefits for non-working mothers and maternity benefits for non-working in both cases are charged the same way.

If she worked before going on maternity leave, but unofficially, we can talk about the status of a non-working pregnant woman. In this case, she will be refused maternity benefits for the unemployed.

IMPORTANT! The unemployed status must be assigned by the employment center due to the lack of an actual place of work.

  3. Payment after 30 weeks is provided in a lump sum up to 2300 rubles.
  4. Non-working maternity allowance is subject to assignment if both parents are not employed either.
  5. Monthly allowance for expectant mothers whose husbands are in military service until the end of her term: from 26 weeks upon presentation of a certificate from the antenatal clinic in the amount of 23,000 rubles.
