Mothers with many children will no longer be able to choose a convenient time for vacation

Either they are urged to leave the decree early in order to work with full dedication for the benefit of the domestic economy, then they are offered to be imprisoned for not leaving the office after the decree. But that is nonsense, which did not find a response from fellow deputies. However, the new amendments to the Labor Code in some way nevertheless “pinched” the rights of mothers with many children. Not with money, but with benefits.

Even last year, Katya herself decided when it would be more convenient for her to take a vacation. She went to her superiors and “booked” the necessary dates. The management, to be honest, was twisted, but the statement was signed. The Labor Code prescribed listening to the demands of mothers of two or more children under the age of 12. Katya has three of them – from 4 to 7.

“I was adjusting to my husband’s vacation so that we would go on vacation with the whole family,” the woman explains. – It’s easier to look after the kids together.

Now Catherine will either have to somehow negotiate with the boss, or her husband will have to adjust to the whole family. As they say “News”, In the spring the opportunity for“ many people ”to take annual paid leave at a time convenient for them was removed from the Labor Code.

“The provision of leave for parents with children at any time convenient for them can be fixed in industry agreements, collective or labor contracts,” the press service of the Ministry of Labor said.

It is interesting that such a right was given to mothers back in Soviet times. And since then it has passed from document to document. True, many did not even know about him. Maybe that’s why the ministry decided that it was a “dead weight”?

“There is no duplicate norm that returns mothers with many children the right to a comfortable vacation, now in the Labor Code,” says Elena Gerasimova, a member of the Labor and Employment Commission of the Public Council under the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation, director of the Center for Social and Labor Rights. – Although, of course, if you have small children, it is convenient to choose your own vacation time. And the fact that this act was canceled is, of course, sad.
