Sick leave is funded by the Social Security System to the value of 80% of an employee's average salary for days 1-12 of the illness (and 70% afterward). Medical certificates are required for all sick leave.

Maternity leave

Maternity leave is 126 days paid (increasing to 140 days in cases of multiple births or complications). Maternity leave can be extended to three years unpaid. If another child is born during that time, the paid maternity leave entitlement recommences.

Paternity leave

Paternity leave is up to 14 days within the first six months of the child's life. The employment contract determines whether the leave is unpaid or paid.

Termination

Termination Process

Article 42 of the Belarusian Labor Code sets out the circumstances in which a contract can be terminated, which include mutual consent and the employee disagreeing with the relocation or reorganization of the company.

Notice Period

Notice periods are stipulated in employment contracts/collective agreements and depend upon the industry, employment type, and the employee's status. The minimum notice period is one month (except in a probationary period when it is three days).

Severance Pay

Employment contracts/collective agreements set out any severance payments required. The normal standard is a minimum of two weeks of salary.

Probation Period

Probationary periods of up to three months can be established at the employer's discretion.
