Coronavirus. You have a right to do so, children must be sick
“If your children are home but not sick, you are generally not entitled to holiday. The current rules apply, ”said lawyer Henning Heitmann in Good Morning Norway.
Today, the starting point is that children must be sick in order to be able to stay home with them.
Heitmann points out that the government is currently working on changing these rules due to the current situation in Norway.
Promises full payment for dismissal for 20 days
- If the child is sick, you may spend the ten days to which you are entitled. After three days, there should be a sick leave, explains the lawyer.
It is also debated whether a sick leave should now be claimed as medical offices are under siege.
Many have been released
Many people have been made redundant. The Storting is considering whether to ensure that redundancies continue to be 100 percent. It still has not been established.
"But that would help a lot compared to the 60 percent you are entitled to when you get unemployment benefits," explains Drange.
Heitmann says it's important to work if you have the opportunity.
If you are applying for unemployment benefit with NAV, they will be calculated on the basis of your actual income for the last twelve months.
This means that if someone has worked more percent than what is stated in the employment contract. This is taken into account in the calculations.
- And if you had a higher income, if you count 36 months back, that is the basis, explains the lawyer.
Heitmann also explains that as long as you have been fired for more than 50% of your regular position. You are entitled to unemployment benefit.
- For those who hold part-time positions, it is necessary to calculate how much of the actual work performed is reduced, says Heitmann.
