Disabled employees with 1^st and 2^nd groups of disability who work 35 hours a week are paid for full working week – 40 hours. If a 2^nd group disabled was obliged by the MREK’s decision to work part-time in this case he is paid only for the time he had actually worked. Calculation of hourly (daily) basic rate for 1^st and 2^nd groups disabled is made by dividing monthly rate by the norm hours of shorter working week.

Citizen E, born in 1974 is a 2nd group disabled; he lives together with his retired mother. Practically, the family lived for 2 pensions: mother’s retirement pension and son’s disability pension. The mother’s pension is very small, because she had worked for half of wage rate, in order to have time to take care of her disabled son. The income didn’t let the family to pay all the expenses: food, household running costs, rehabilitation and medicines.
