What Are The Procedures And Conditions For The Application For Cash Wage Support For Workers On Unpaid Leave?
Application for Cash Wage Support for Workers on Unpaid Leave
In order to benefit from the cash wage support for workers who are on unpaid leave and cannot benefit from the short-time working allowance, employers are required to make notifications regarding the workers on unpaid leave by logging in to the Covid-19 Unpaid Leave Screen on the Social Security Institution’s “https://uyg.sgk.gov.tr/IsverenSistemi” address.
Applications for unpaid leave must be made by the 3rd of the month following the month of unpaid leave, separately for each month of unpaid leave.
As can be seen, employees do not need to make a separate application; applications are made by the employer.
On the application screen, the number of days the employee is on unpaid leave in the relevant month, the Turkish ID number of the employee, the IBAN number of the employee, the mobile phone number of the employer and the insured must be entered.
For the workers who are reported on the application screen in this way, the reason for missing days in the Monthly Premium and Service Documents / Withholding and Premium Service Declarations for the relevant month should be selected as “28- Pandemic Unpaid Leave”.
However, if there is another missing day code together with the pandemic unpaid leave missing day code in the same month, the missing day code must be reported as “29 Pandemic Unpaid Leave and Other”.
In addition, it should be noted that those who, despite taking unpaid leave after April 17, 2020, accidentally report another code instead of the missing day reason “28-Pandemic Unpaid Leave” in their Monthly Premium and Service Documents / Withholding and Premium Service Declarations, should apply to the relevant provincial directorate / social security center of the Social Security Institution to change the missing day code.
In addition, it should be noted that the application information can be updated.
For this purpose, the application and update transactions made via “https://uyg.sgk.gov.tr/IsverenSistemi” must be made until the end of the second month following the month in which the unpaid leave is applied. However, applications that are made until the end of the following month after the end of the period in which the application is in force and that give rise to rights can be made for the previous month at most.
Within the scope of Annex-9 of the Social Security and General Health Insurance Law No. 5510, employers who employ more than 10 days of insured employees in domestic services must notify the Social Security Provincial Directorates or Central Directorates with the missing day code “28-Pandemic Unpaid Leave” until the end of the month in which the unpaid leave is granted.
