Requirements: In order to receive family allowances, the employee must have worked at least one day and have made the necessary contributions to the social insurance administration for that day.

Exception: During maternity leave you pay the family allowance independently from the social insurance contributions, depending on circumstances.

Therefore, when calculating family allowances, the system checks whether a gross amount exists for the social insurance for the month corresponding to the present payroll run. If this is the case, calculate family allowances for the employee accordingly. If this is not the case, check whether maternity leave exists.

If maternity leave exists, calculate family allowances. If there is no maternity allowance or gross social insurance amount, do not calculate family allowances.

Family allowances can be classified in the following way:

1. Regular allowances:
1. Regular monthly allowances:
1. Child allowance
2. Challenged child family allowance
2. Regular yearly allowances:
1. Special education assistance

 

2. Special allowances:
1. Special single allowances
1. Childbirth allowance
2. Adoption allowance
2. Monthly special allowances
1. Family allowance, prenatal

The family allowances calculated using the SAP R/3 system are: child allowances, challenged child allowances, special education assistance allowance, and pre-natal allowance.

Allowances for childbirth, adoption and marriage are accredited by the National Social Insurance Administration.
