How sick pay is calculated

Temporary disability benefit = average daily earnings × service-based percentage × sick days (Arts. 7 and 14 of Federal Law No. 255-FZ of 29 December 2006).

Average daily earnings = earnings for the two previous calendar years / 730. Each year's earnings are capped at the contribution cap: RUB 2,225,000 for 2024 and RUB 2,759,000 for 2025 — a maximum of RUB 6,827.40 per day in 2026.
The minimum is based on the minimum wage: RUB 27,093 × 24 / 730 = RUB 890.73 per day; the benefit for a full month cannot be less than the minimum wage.
Service-based percentage: under 5 years — 60%, 5 to 8 years — 80%, 8 years or more — 100%.
The employer pays for the first three days of illness; the rest is paid by the Social Fund of Russia directly to the employee (Art. 3 of Federal Law No. 255-FZ).

This is an indicative calculation under the general rules for 2026. For special cases — tax relief, regional wage coefficients, excluded periods — check the regulations.
