[ad_1]

A special care period applies until the end of the school year

Parents can take care of four weeks. This time is fully compensated by the companies.

Parents can take the special care period of a total of four weeks, regardless of whether they had to take care of their children during the first confinement or during the holidays, explain SPÖ spokeswoman Gabriele Heinisch-Hosek and spokeswoman for the family, Petra Wimmer. This is intended to support families during the difficult situation due to the coronavirus. The new right applies until the end of the 2020/21 school year and can also be accepted in parts, daily, or half a day.

More safety for parents

Due to legal right, families will in the future be independent of the good will of their employer. According to Renate Anderl, president of the Chamber of Labor, this is an important contribution to greater safety for parents. Anderl is also calling on the federal government to keep schools open despite the high number of corona infections.
