What does the bill do?
The bill is an amendment to the National Insurance Law allowing a self-employed woman in a micro or small business to be considered as not working in her occupation, provided her work does not exceed 80 hours a month, she has worked in the business for at least 12 consecutive months, and the business is owned by her. The bill aims to make things easier for self-employed women who need to run their business during the parenthood and maternity period, and to encourage them to enter self-employment without losing their right to maternity allowance.
