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

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.”
