This law introduces comprehensive changes to the mandatory state social insurance system in Ukraine. The main purpose is to improve the mechanisms of social protection for insured persons and their family members. The law amends a number of basic laws in the field of social insurance, including the Laws ‘On Mandatory State Social Insurance’, ‘On Collection and Accounting of the Unified Social Contribution for Mandatory State Social Insurance’, and other related acts. Structurally, the law consists of two sections: the first contains amendments to legislative acts, and the second contains transitional provisions.
Key innovations relate to the procedure for calculating and paying benefits for temporary disability, pregnancy and childbirth, the mechanism for paying the unified social contribution, as well as clarifying the categories of insured persons and types of material support to which they are entitled. Unfortunately, without the full text of the law, it is impossible to provide a more detailed analysis of specific changes.
