How to calculate maternity with an experience of more or less than 6 months – step-by-step instructions for mothers
In order to calculate the amount of the benefit yourself, follow these instructions:
Step 1. Sum up the income
Salary, vacation payments, bonuses – for the past two years (2017 and 2018) before receiving maternity leave.
If these amounts exceed the maximum wage established by the state, then you will receive the highest benefit amount, which is RUB 207,123.00. If your amounts are less than the maximum wage limit, then use the formula:
where:
- 1 year – the sum of all income for one billing year.
- 2 year – the sum of all income for the second year involved in the calculation.
- 731 Is the number of days taken into account in the calculation (two years).
- Sick. – the sum of sick days for the period of time taken into account in the calculations (two years).
- D – This is the number of days recorded on the sick leave, which is issued due to pregnancy and childbirth (from 140 to 194 days).
Step 2. Determine the value of the average daily earnings
To do this, you need to use the following formula:
The excluded days include periods of temporary incapacity for work, the time when the employee was on BIR or childcare leave, as well as exemptions with partial or full salary retention, from which contributions were not accrued to VNM.
Step 3. Determine the amount of your daily allowance
To do this, you need to multiply the SDZ by 100%.
Step 4. Calculate the amount of maternity allowance
Rememberif your real income is less than the minimum wage, then the statutory minimum benefit is assigned.
If the average income for the reporting period exceeded the minimum wage, the mother will receive 100% of the average monthly earnings. And if the average monthly income turns out to be less than the minimum wage, then in 2019 the payment will be 11,280 rubles.
Substitute these values into the formula:
|
Benefit amount |
= | Daily allowance | X |
TOnumber of vacation days |

Maternity leave – what else do you need to know?
Consider the following nuances when registering a vacation and payments:

In the first, you will ask to interrupt the parental leave, and in the second, you will be granted a BIR leave. For the calculation they will take the two last but one years, that is, those when you were on leave for BiR, as well as for childcare. These years may be replaced by the previous ones (according to clause 1 of Art. 14 255-FZ). To do this, you will need to write another statement.
- It must be remembered that a certificate of incapacity for work for the provision of maternity leave as the first part of maternity leave must be issued within a strictly defined period, namely a certain number of days before delivery.
