The quarantine in Lithuania has been extended until May 31, which means that until then, a special procedure is in force to issue certificates of incapacity for work established by the Ministers of Social Security and Labor and Health.
During the emergency and quarantine, inability to care for kindergartens, preschoolers, elementary children, and children with disabilities under the age of 21 is issued for a period of up to 60 calendar days. The doctor decides for himself the period for which the certificate of incapacity for work is issued: 60 calendar days is the longest period. Please note that sickness benefit will be paid no later than the end of quarantine, regardless of the fact that the certificate of incapacity for work will be issued for a longer period.
If the certificate of incapacity for work expires and the quarantine is not revoked, then the incapacity for work can continue for up to 60 calendar days.
If the parents decide to take the child to kindergarten or preschool and return to work, the payment of sickness benefit and incapacity for work will end from the first day of work. Employers notify Sodra of the employee’s return to work.
As is well known, parental leave, adoptive parents, guardians, guardians and grandparents are entitled to sick leave and sickness benefit during an emergency and quarantine, but only if the child’s parents are unable to work remotely or not declared on the job.
