Impact of suspension of an employment contract on seniority, sick leave and unified social contribution
Share
1. Length of service for annual basic leave:
- The period of suspension of the employment contract is not included in the length of service required for annual basic leave, since the employee did not actually work and was not paid.
2. Payment of sick leave:
- During the period of suspension of the employment agreement, sick leave is not provided, as these payments compensate for the loss of wages, which are not paid during such a period.
3. Payment of the Single Social Contribution (SSC):
- Since the unified social contribution is calculated on the amount of salary, and no salary is paid during the period of suspension of the contract, no unified social contribution is paid.
The value for the employee and the employer:
- For employees: Suspension of the contract means the loss of important social and labor guarantees.
- For employers: Suspension of labor relations reduces the financial burden during periods when it is impossible to maintain the normal business process.
