How does an ERTE affect me if I am on sick leave due to temporary incapacity or on leave for the birth and care of a child? And what if the sick leave starts after the ERTE begins?
If you are in a situation of temporary incapacity for work (IT) or on leave for the birth and care of a child (including adoption, pre-adoption fostering or foster care), the measures involving suspension of the employment contract or reduction in working hours arising from an employment regulation procedure will not apply to you until that situation has ended.
If temporary incapacity begins during a period of suspended employment or reduced working hours while you are receiving unemployment benefits, or have already applied for them, you do not need to take any action with the SEPE, as the National Social Security Institute (INSS) will handle the notification.
If leave for the birth and care of a child (including adoption, pre-adoption fostering or foster care) starts while you are affected by a suspension of the contract or a reduction in working hours, you must inform the SEPE and submit documentation confirming the end of that period.
Example: an employee on temporary incapacity on 01/03/2022, affected by a suspension of contracts between 01/04/2022 and 31/05/2024 as a result of an ERTE. Medical discharge is issued on 10/05/2022; from that point onward, the suspension measure applies, with the end of the temporary incapacity confirmed by the medical discharge certificate.
If sick leave occurs while the employment regulation procedure is in force, and therefore while you are receiving unemployment benefits:
- If the IT benefit is paid by the INSS: the State Public Employment Service (SEPE), acting on behalf of the National Social Security Institute (INSS), will pay the temporary incapacity benefit, at the same amount as the unemployment benefit, with the corresponding consumption of benefit days.
- If you are on leave for the birth and care of a child (including adoption, pre-adoption fostering or foster care): payment of the unemployment benefit will be suspended and, once you have applied for the birth and childcare benefit managed directly by the INSS, you will start receiving it. Once this benefit ends, the unemployment benefit will resume, upon request by the claimant, for the remaining period and at the amount applicable at the time of suspension.
- If the IT benefit is paid by a Mutual Insurance Association: the SEPE will suspend payment of the unemployment benefit from the first day of sick leave, while maintaining contributions during that period. The Mutual Insurance Association will be responsible for paying the temporary incapacity benefit to the employee.
