Benefit There are two basic kinds of social insurance for farmers:

1. pension insurance,
   
2. accident, health and maternity insurance.

Cash benefits from the pension insurance include:

1. old-age pension or farmer disability pension in case of inability to work,
   
2. farmer training pension,
   
3. survivors' pension,
   
4. pensions from the farmers' social insurance for private farmers and their families,
   
5. supplements to pensions listed above:
   
   • constant-attendance supplement,
     
   • supplement for combatants or in virtue of having attended clandestine lessons during World War II,
     
   • supplement in virtue of forced labour after 1 September 1939,
     
   • supplement for orphans (supplement only to survivors. pension),
     
   • cash supplement for the soldiers from supplementary military service forced to work in coal-mines, quarries and uranium ores-mines,
     
   • cash benefit for persons deported to forced labour and put in work camps by the Third Reich and the Soviet Union,
     
   • lump sum for energy
     
   • supplement for persons at age above 100 years
   
   
6. funeral benefit.

The owner of the farm is obliged to pay quarterly contribution,
that comes to 30% of the basic farmer's pension,
for each person covered by the pension insurance.


Cash benefits from the accident, health and maternity insurance include:

1. lump-sum compensation for permanent or protracted impairment of health or death due to the occupational injury while a person was engaged in farm duties or to the agricultural occupational sickness,
   
2. sickness benefit in case of sickness, that lasts uninterruptedly for at least 30 days; a person is entitled to such benefit for a period of temporary inability to work, but not longer than 180 days,
   
3. maternity benefit in case of childbirth or accepting year-old child for raising,
   
   

The person covered by this system is obliged to pay contribution established by the Council of Farmers, according to the Law on farmers' social insurance, for a period of a quarter or several following quarters. The amount of this contribution secures the liquid financing of debts from this insurance system.

Family benefits include:

1. family benefits for persons covered by the farmers' social insurance and entitled to receive old-age pension or disability pension from the pension insurance,
   
2. nursing allowances for the disabled members of the family.
