What is the Russian Maternity & Sick Leave Payment Estimator?
The Russian Maternity & Sick Leave Payment Estimator calculates standard employee benefits for medical leave (*больничный*) and maternity leave (*декретные выплаты по беременности и родам*). These benefits are paid by the Social Fund of Russia (SFR). Payouts depend on your average official earnings over the past two calendar years, your total length of employment (experience), and are bound by strict statutory minimum and maximum daily limits that change every year.
How Does the Russian Maternity & Sick Leave Payment Estimator Work?
1. Enter your gross official earnings for the previous two calendar years (e.g., 2024 and 2025). 2. Input your work experience in years. 3. Enter the total number of leave days (standard sick leave is typically 5-14 days; maternity leave is usually 140 days). 4. Select the leave type to get your projected total payout.
Formula & Calculation Method
Average Daily Earnings (ADE) = (capped Year1 Income + capped Year2 Income) ÷ 730. Year 1 and Year 2 are capped at statutory contribution limits (2024: 2,225,000 ₽; 2025: 2,565,000 ₽). For sick leave, a coefficient is applied based on experience: <5 years (60%), 5-8 years (80%), 8+ years (100%). Maternity leave is always paid at 100% regardless of experience. The daily rate must be between the Minimum Wage daily rate (МРОТ / 30) and the maximum cap (~6,561 ₽).
Example Calculation
An employee with 8+ years of experience earned 1,00,000 ₽ in 2024 and 1,20,000 ₽ in 2025, taking 14 days of sick leave. ADE = (1,00,000 + 1,20,000) ÷ 730 = 3,013.70 ₽. Payout = 3,013.70 ₽ × 14 days × 100% = 42,192 ₽.
