“The initiative is remarkable: it is a very good direct support for large families ... People who still have one or two children can strive to have many children,” Volynets said.
At the same time, she stressed that the state should take part in the payment of such vacation pay in order to avoid discrimination against large families by the employer.
“If the employer still pays an additional seven days, then the state needs to stimulate the supplier of these jobs through, for example, a reduced taxation of large families, or in another way, and there may be many of them ... Otherwise, employers may look for tricks to refuse in the employment of large families, "- said the chairman of the National Parents' Committee.
Earlier, State Duma Deputy Ivan Sukharev made a proposal to increase the annual paid leave to 35 days for parents of three or more children.
