THE LAW
of 18 December 1965
concerning certain changes in social security for cooperative peasants
By Act No 67 / 1965 Coll., concerning certain changes in sickness insurance, the condition of uninterrupted employment for the determination of the rate of sickness and cash assistance in maternity, support for the treatment of a member of the family and the introduction of a compensatory allowance in pregnancy and maternity for working women who have performed a job which is pregnant women or mothers, as the case may be, or which, according to a medical opinion, is a threat to their pregnancy, has been newly regulated by Act No 67 / 1965 Coll. These changes should also be adapted to the adjustment of the rights of cooperative peasants from sickness and mother and child security.
The National Assembly of the Czechoslovak Socialist Republic has therefore decided on this law:
Čl. I
Act No. 103 / 1964 Coll., on Social Security of Cooperative Farmers, is amended as follows:
1. in Article 6 (B.), the following shall be added:
"(a) compensation in pregnancy and maternity,"
The current provisions of points (a) to (c) shall be marked with points (b) to (d).
2. in Articles 10 (1) and (2) and 22 (3), the words "uninterrupted activity in the same cooperative" shall be replaced by the words "working activity in the cooperative."
3. Article 16, including the title, reads:
"Support for family care
(1) Aid for the treatment of a member of the family belongs, under the conditions laid down below, to a member of the cooperative (Section 7) who cannot work because he must:
1. treat a sick child under 10 years of age; or
2. care for a child under 10 years of age because
(a) a children's educational establishment under the care of which the child otherwise is, or the school to which he is attending, has been closed by the order of the competent authorities; or
(b) the child cannot be in the care of a child education establishment or attend school for an ordered quarantine; or
(c) a person who otherwise takes care of the child has become ill or has been ordered to be quarantined (quarantine measures) or has given birth and therefore cannot take care of the child; or
3. Treat another sick member of the family if his or her condition requires urgent treatment by another person.
(2) The condition for providing support for the care of a family member is that a child or a sick family member lives with a member of a cooperative in the common household and that there is no one else in the household who can care for the child or treat the sick; If a sick child or another sick family member is treated, it is another condition that it is not possible or appropriate to place a sick person in a hospital.
(3) Aid for the treatment of a member of the family shall be granted for a maximum period of three working days if the need for treatment persists; the provision may be extended by up to three additional working days if the necessary care cannot be provided within the first three working days.
(4) A member of a cooperative who has the permanent care of at least one child of age until the end of compulsory education and is otherwise lonely may be further extended, but the period of provision may not exceed 12 working days in the same case.
(5) The rules on sickness insurance apply mutatis mutandis to the fixing of aid and its rates.
(6) In the same case, the aid belongs to only one beneficiary.
(7) Support for the treatment of a member of the family shall not apply where the treatment of a member of the family falls within a period for which a member of the cooperative is not entitled to another cause of employment.
(8) Until otherwise provided for by the Government, the aid due in respect of working days in the first seven calendar days of family care from the social fund of the cooperative shall be paid out of State resources from the eighth day of care referred to in paragraph 4. '
4. After Paragraph 19, the following section shall be inserted:

„Oddíl první

§ 19a
Compensation for pregnancy and maternity
(1) A co-worker who has performed a job which is prohibited from pregnant women or who, according to a medical opinion, is a threat to their pregnancy and is therefore temporarily transferred to another job in which he has achieved a lower income than his previous work, without fault. *)
(2) The provisions of the preceding paragraph shall apply mutatis mutandis to mothers until the end of the ninth month following birth.
(3) A compensation allowance in pregnancy and maternity shall be granted at the rate of the difference between the average occupational income achieved by the cooperative during the last 12 calendar months before the transfer to another work and the income obtained in each calendar month following such transfer. The reduction in the working income of the cooperative shall not be taken into account; the amounts of income exceeding, on average, 100 CZK per working day are also disregarded.
(4) The compensation allowance shall be granted for the period for which the cooperative is entitled to work or compensation after transfer to another work; in pregnancy, it shall be granted no longer than the beginning of maternity leave and after the termination of maternity leave no longer than the end of the ninth month following birth.
(5) The compensatory allowance shall not apply if the cooperative has not worked for at least eight working days after transfer to another work without serious reasons in the calendar month.
(6) In agreement with the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry and with the Central Council of Trade Unions, the State Social Security Office shall issue more detailed provisions on the compensatory allowance, in particular on how the work income is to be collected and calculated, according to which the compensatory allowance is to be fixed. '
As a result of the introduction of the new section of the first
Section 1 above Section 20 as Section 2,
Section 2 above § 28 as section 3,
Section 3 above Paragraph 29 as Section 4,
Section Four above § 30 as Section Five.
5. The heading of Section 29 reads:
"Conversion of rights to sickness and maternity and child security benefits"
and Paragraph 29 (2) reads as follows:
"(2) Where it fulfils the legitimate conditions for entitlement to a sickness benefit or to a maternity allowance or maternity allowance, as well as for entitlement to a similar sickness benefit in accordance with the rules applicable to workers, the sickness benefit, assistance for the treatment of a member of the family, compensation for pregnancy and maternity and maternity allowance shall be granted separately from both sickness or maternity security under this law and sickness insurance under the rules applicable to workers; the sum of the cash benefits per working day shall not be higher than the sum of the 100 CZK per day. If the sum of the average daily wage and the net daily wage exceeds 100 CZK per day, an amount in excess of 100 CZK shall be deducted from the average daily salary in calculating the sickness and child security benefits under this law. Funeral and support for the birth of a child shall be granted only once, in accordance with the rules applicable to workers. '
6.
"(1) The entitlement to sickness benefit, to support the treatment of a member of the family, to a compensatory allowance in pregnancy and maternity and to monetary assistance in maternity for each day shall be suspended if it has not been applied within one year of the date for which it belongs."
Čl. II
This Act shall take effect on 1 January 1966.

*) If a pregnant cooperative is a worker who is prohibited from working for pregnant women or who, according to a medical opinion, threatens to become pregnant, the cooperative is obliged under the Labour Code (§ 153 (1) and § 162) to transfer her temporarily to a job which is suitable for her and in which she may receive the same pay as for the previous work.
