Can unmarried women's fertility receive maternity insurance and allowances?National Medical Insurance Bureau response

On August 17, the National Health and Health Commission held a press conference on the relevant situation of the "Guiding Opinions on Further Improve and Implement Active Paternal Support Measures".

Some media asked questions that the "Guidance Opinions" put forward the national unified standards and formulated a policy of maternity insurance for maternity insurance. What work does this policy involve uniformly regulating? When will the policy be introduced? At present, the national legal leave is covered by the law for 98 days in accordance with the law. The local fertility leave now includes fertility award leave and spouse to accompany maternity leave. Some places also explore parental parental leave. Can these holidays enjoy maternity allowances? In addition, the issuance of maternity allowances has proposed pre -favors such as marriage certificates, so that some unmarried but fertility women may have obstacles to apply for maternity allowances. Do you consider unifying these thresholds?

Liu Juan, deputy director of the National Medical Insurance Bureau's Deputy Division, responded that maternity allowances are important parts of maternity insurance benefits. The country attaches great importance to the guarantee of fertility allowance during maternity leave, and clearly stipulates that maternity insurance will be paid by the maternity insurance period during maternity insurance. In practice, it plays a positive role in balanced employers and promoting fair employment of men and women. From the perspective of international situations, my country's national legal maternity leave has reached the 14 -week standard stipulated by the International Labor Organization's Convention on Maternity Organization, and the maternity allowances during maternity leave are also higher than the above -mentioned convention standards. In general, the protection is better.

The "Guidance Opinions" proposed that the national unified norms and the formulation of improvement of maternity insurance and maternity allowances are mainly considered: First, adhere to the basic guarantee. Everyone also knows that in the field of social security, we must adhere to the unity and normality of the system. We must do our best, but also do their best to make a plan and possibility. The improvement of the guarantee guarantee of maternity insurance must not only take into account the fund's support ability, but at the same time, it must reflect the direction of actively supporting fertility.二是均衡地区间的待遇差距，刚才记者也提到，近年来随着人口政策的调整优化，地方在国家法定产假之外新设了一些生育奖励假，还有男同志的陪产假，包括育儿Fake and so on. On the whole, the holidays of various places are different and different. Especially in the practice of equity protection, there are also different practices, and the level of treatment between regions is uneven, which can easily lead to comparison between regions and people. The third is to promote the fair employment of women. Practice shows that too long holidays may bring fertility concerns of professional women, increasing women's employment discrimination, which is not conducive to the fair employment of men and women, and then affects women's fertility willingness. With the impact of employment, comprehensive policy, responsibility sharing, and jointly build a positive fertility support system.

The reporter's friend also raised two other small questions, and I also briefly responded. You mentioned just now that the maternity allowances of our country and the social insurance law pays the treatment insurance related benefits according to law, so it is to pay national legal leave in accordance with the law, that is, 98 days of maternity leave, the maternity rewards set in the local area, the "Guidance Opinions" requires the state to require the country to request the country Uniformly regulate and formulate a policy of improving maternity insurance for maternity allowances.

You just mentioned the threshold for receiving maternity allowances. The social insurance law follows the rights and obligations of rights and obligations. As long as the liability for the payment of maternity insurance, there is no threshold at the national level. The relevant materials required for insurance fertility allowances do not require those materials you just said just now. We also understand that there may be requirements for providing maternity services related materials in some places. We will also follow the relevant departments to follow the relevant situations to better protect the legitimate rights and interests of participants.
