born in 1936 Soviet Constitution, the most progressive in history, even today has not been surpassed by any other constitution.
Now and were not laws or decrees, were constitutional rights guaranteed by the Constitution and the state meet. The new Soviet Constitution had two key items that would build on the Soviet social security the future:
In the Soviet Union
invalids had the full protection of the state, as guaranteed lifetime pension and gratuity for all treatments, there were three degrees of disability:
- Total, for people who could not work and needed constant care .
- Part Time, for people who could perform a job of its ability
- Relating to persons who for health or physical reasons could not continue doing your job.
The State was responsible for special projects to facilitate the disabled where they could collect the reward of his work and also his pension.
Children and Mothers
The mother and child from pregnancy to adulthood the child received the constant vigilance of the State, to see how it can:
She was nothing more to become pregnant derecognised where received his wages, after the child's birth was one year rental, with the birth of first child was given a sum of money for special care in the first months, if the mother had more children receive double the money, was a way to promote birth if the family was large state gave them a rented apartment (rent prices were the same as always, those that existed in 1928) with a sufficient number of rooms.
To reconcile work and family life of mothers have crèches and nurseries at a cost of 30% of the total.
If a sick child any parent could ask the low paid.
Retirement and Pension
Soviet Union in retirement was always the same age:
- 60 years male.
- 55 years female.
If jobs were particularly hard to retirement could be 5 (men and women) or 10 (men) years earlier. Women if they had five or more children, or an invalid could retire at age 50.
contributions to receive full pension was 25 years have contributed men and 20 women, that was no problem because in the Soviet Union there was no strike and stay in the military or traded studies also periods of low. There were
special pension for those citizens who have contributed in an extraordinary way to socialism or the Communist cause in the world, as they could be the heroes of the Soviet Union and Labour Heroes, ect
Labor Rights
for paid sick leave 100% of salary. Possibility
to continue working after retirement, drawing their pension and 65% of the average wage. There were far
work and / or drives that need special treatment, so early retirement than 10 years there was another possibility, and to continue working and receiving salary and pension. Considerations
Maybe see missing certain rights, such as for example, unemployment benefits, but such rights are meaningless in a socialist country, where unemployment (scourge of the working class) was liquidated in the 20's, the latest job vacancies in the Soviet Union closed in 1930.
- Section 119 .-- The citizens of the USSR have the right to rest.
guarantee the right to break the seven-hour workday for workers and employees and their reduction to six hours for professions whose working conditions are difficult, and four hours in the sections in which these conditions are particularly difficult; paid annual leave for workers and employees, and the existence of an extensive network of sanatoria, rest homes and clubs, made available to workers.
- Article 120 .-- The citizens of the USSR have the right to economic assistance in old age, and in case of illness and loss of working capacity.
guarantee this right the extensive development of social insurance of workers and employees in charge of the State, free medical care to workers and the existence of an extensive network of resorts available to workers.
From this moment on, every Soviet citizen from birth until the last moments of his life will be under continuous vigilance of the Soviet state, especially the most vulnerable, I mean the disabled, children, the elderly and mothers. Disabled In the Soviet Union
