The government has adopted a draft law amending the Law on Special Measures to Counteract Support for Aggression against Ukraine and to Protect National Security and the Law on National Fiscal Administration.
According to the draft, a sanctioned employer will be able to apply to the speaker of province assembly for benefits from the Guaranteed Employee Benefits Fund to satisfy employee claims. If the employer chooses not to make such an application, payment of benefits can also be made on the basis of an employee’s individual application.
The benefit for unpaid employee claims is to be paid for a maximum of three months, and the maximum benefit for one month is to be limited to the average monthly salary of the previous quarter.
The draft has been referred to the parliament and legislative work is currently underway.
