State Duma deputies from the party "A Just Russia - For Truth" want to introduce a bill to the State Duma.

The decree will concern the payment of unemployment benefits to Russian citizens of pre-retirement age before official employment.

In addition, payments can be provided to Russians of pre-retirement age before receiving an insurance pension, as reported by RIA Novosti .

The decree states: “It is proposed to provide benefits to Russians until they find employment.”

Details of the decree

It is also proposed to establish exceptions in this case.

For example, citizens returning to work after a very long break of more than a year will not receive payments.

In particular, Russians who were dismissed due to a disciplinary offense will not be eligible for the benefit.

As the authors of the initiative pointed out, today many Russians of pre-retirement age live on dependency or “from hand to mouth.”
