Incredible and incredible! It is reported that the work in Russia is not in any way with ideas to increase the birth rate. As you can see, do not create suitable conditions for employers for potential mothers. The state offered a lot of options because they could participate in the glorious case of the demographic struggle of entrepreneurs and they – in no way!
And it was really suggested. MPs, employers, children to graduate from primary school to bring flexible graphics for family employees. Both officials said the enterprise could be paid to the workers on the occasion of the birth of children. Then he was encouraged to open a nursery at work. He was convinced that employers could help young families to compensate for the expenses of employees who had their first contribution to a mortgage or for rent. They demanded that the company quota to introduce the birth rate in the business team and to monitor the business team.
In this case, initiatives were always formulated in a strange way. The business world was suggested to undertake additional social obligations and in return. No, socially responsible entrepreneurs have been told about tax religions about the possibility of any other benefit. However, the important benefits in these initiatives did not appear in some way: in general, it was implied that traders should be interested in protecting their traditional and family values in their businesses, because they finally complained about the hunger of staff, so they allow new potential workers to take and secure their birth. They’re all simple.
The job made a different decision. At the end of February, a study on the connection of work and demographic served HH.RU. More than 300 Russian enterprises participated. And it turned out that most organizations refused to develop additional institutional programs for potential parents and employees with already children. And more specifically, in the last three years, some bonuses for family workers have been brought to 11% of companies. And apparently, such measures did not justify itself, the tendency was already diminishing: in 2024, only 2% of organizations introduced additional demographic benefits, and on the contrary, the programs that have previously introduced programs to support families introduced programs.
Entrepreneurs do not hurry only to promote corporate drills and open a nursery in offices, but they do not even use state support for their previous output of employees from birth leave. Apparently, the Ministry of Labor made a gift for business: the state is ready to pay for women who go to work until they reach a year and a half for children and children. However, in only 6% of the companies they see this initiative as interesting, the rest is more profitable for him to hire a new employee for 1.5-3 years instead of thinking about who will change a woman who tries everywhere when he goes to the next illness permission. And in the meantime, there are few women who torn to Fulim immediately after the hospital. Although working on motherhood has become a new norm for a long time, in most cases, young mothers still prefer relatively light parts to work remotely at a maximum of half of the quarter load, maximum half. The main working place in 2024 reached only 3% of women who raised infants.
For some bonuses, mostly intangible employers, of course, may enter the conditions of shortage of personnel. But we are talking about universal donuts for everyone. The enterprise is not ready to solve state problems to increase the birth rate. How many authorities are sure that the demographic concern in the long run is useful for employers, everyone understands that it is missing to support motherhood and childhood in the short term. If the workers start giving birth like the conveyor, who will work on this conveyor?
You can shake your head as much as you want for Europe’s progressive experience. And when the state is interested, it is ready to refer to the West. In women who want to reconcile their career longing with the desire to recognize their longings in motherhood, they support Femteh as a part of philosophy, you can say that they open children’s rooms in Sweden and companies in Italy increase their gaps for their parents, but they have their own corporate traditions. And usually employees with children at the expense of their own resources of the business does not go beyond the publication of the VHI family policies, but offer envelopes for the birth of children from the union and sweet gifts for the new year. An intangible incentive, a hybrid work program, several additional offers and the right to leave during summer school holidays can be presented. This is everything.
Will something change in the coming years? Hardly not. Even under the pressure of the state. As a result, the state calls for a cunning, great social responsibility: he wants to throw some of his own obligations. And when he can. As we are supported by families who have benefits from the budget against the ground of the loudly PR, how citizens attach importance to reproductive health within the framework of free medicine, how social spheres develop, here and the state’s efforts and grass. Interesting, for example, the situation of the support of unemployed mothers. Previously, all of them have benefited for children in a minimum amount of livelihood for a year and a half, and since 2023, only weak unemployed mothers can apply for payment. The needs criteria were also tightened: Before looking at income, they are now estimating the value of assets.
The job is looking at it and does not want to take over too much. Employers believe that they are well done if they do not discriminate against womenless women while applying for a job. In the meantime, wrong questions about a woman’s reproductive plans are still very common in interviews. It is so common that they want to ban them according to laws.
Apparently, we did not grow even before the demographic bonuses in commercial spheres. And God would be with them – they would not violate their rights. And in terms of incentives, there is a universal way to please everyone – competitive salaries. And let them decide what they will spend on them, a family and children, or just loved ones.
