He explained that parents of children admitted to kindergartens are entitled to sick leave. For all other cases, the Ministry of Social Affairs asks employers to allow remote work.

“In the case of a child, it is BGN 610, and if there are two children, the amount becomes BGN 915 and is awarded in proportion to the days the child must be at home.

Rusinova reported that 25,000 children are already using traditional first grade help. For the first time since this school year, there is also help for eighth grade students, which is used by more than 18,000 families.
