Rules related parenting


Due to the coronavirus epidemic, special rules have been introduced to alleviate the situation of parents raising children.




Childcare fee / Childcare allowance / Parenting allowance
The entitlement to health insurance and family benefits in respect of the care and education of the child shall be extended until the emergency situation has ceased. In fact, the Childcare fee (Gyed), the Childcare allowance (Gyes) and the Parenting allowance (Gyet) entitlements expiring during the emergency situation will be extended.

School and public education closing

As of the 16th of March 2020, primary and secondary education institutions have been closed for an undefined period; also, kindergartens and crèches will be closed gradually.

The support for parents staying at home is currently questionable. From the employer's point of view, in case the parent is otherwise unable to take care of the child and is therefore unable to take up work, it is to be considered as an incapacitated status under current law. At the same time this status is not to be paid by the employer, nor does it imply the entitlement for sickness benefit.
