Chelyabinsk Governor offered to give a day off to those vaccinated against COVID-19

Residents of the Chelyabinsk region should be given the opportunity to take one day off after each stage of vaccination against CORONAVIRUS infection from covid-19 . This was stated by the governor of the Chelyabinsk region Alexei Teksler, the press service of the HEAD of the region reports.

“I think it’s right to give a day off to those who have taken root. it is clear that the employer can make such a decision, and we can make this decision for the budgetary municipal structures,” he said. Texler explained that some residents "have worries" about how they feel the first day after the vaccination and should be given the opportunity to stay at home.

The governor recommended that all employers, including industrial enterprises, take a day off after vaccination. He also stressed that the day off should be paid. The head of the region turned to the Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs of the Chelyabinsk Region with this proposal, the press service added.

In May, the Governor of the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug, Natalia Komarova, in response to a question from a Surgut resident whether the employer should pay time off after being vaccinated against coronavirus, instructed to develop special recommendations for employers, since paid time off on the day of vaccination or after it is not regulated in labor legislation.
