Many mothers, waiting for a replenishment in the family, are thinking about how to calculate the maternity allowance. Maternity is a one-time benefit given to pregnant women. It is not at all difficult to independently calculate the size of maternity.
It should be taken into account that in 2013 a new calculation of maternity leave was adopted. If earlier, when calculating, earnings for 12 months were taken, now income for the last 2 years is taken into account. It is necessary to add up wages for the last 2 years, add all bonuses, benefits and sick leave and divide the amount received by 730. The resulting average wage must be multiplied by calendar sick days and, as a result, you get the maternity sum.
Don't worry if you've worked for different employers for the past two years. The average salary can be confirmed by a certificate in the form of 2 personal income tax. If you have worked in two places at the same time in recent years, then you need to draw up an allowance for each place of work.
Let's consider the simplest example of calculating maternity. Let's say you received a salary of 630,000 rubles over the past 2 years. This amount must be divided by 730, resulting in 863 rubles - the average daily earnings. Next, you need to multiply 863 rubles by the number of sick days for pregnancy and childbirth.
